There’s a New Trending Oscars #Hashtag That Will Make You LOL
Last year, #OscarsSoWhite went viral, with plenty of peeps questioning the diversity, inclusiveness, and even the relevancy of the show in this day and age. Though there were a few lol-worthy moments once the awards ceremony got rolling, there was a rather serious air to the affair to be sure (and it seemed to make a difference: This year has already proven to be much more diverse).
Now, with less than a week to go before the big show, a new hashtag has been born around the ceremony, with #OscarsWeNeed pointing out… well… the Oscars (categories) we need. This time around, however, the results are beyond perfect and totally hilarious. From the weirdly random to the viciously on-point, check out our favorite #OscarsWeNeed Tweets below.
