Remember the 2015 Miss Universe event?
Remember the awkward moment when Steve Harvey became internet’s favourite meme because he accidently announced Ms Colombia as the winner when she was actually supposed to be the runner-up.
Guess what folks? It happened again.
And of all places, it happened at the Oscars, at the freakin’ Oscars!
Announcing the best movie of the year, Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway presented ‘La La Land’ with the trophy when it was ‘Moonlight’ which was actually the winner.
The entire cast of ‘La La Land’ went on the stage to accept the award and they were in the middle of their acceptance speech when the clarification came.
The second this goof-up happened, Twitter went berserk.

4. ICYMI, Bonnie and Clyde were famous thieves who were played by Warren and Faye in a 1967 movie
Looks like Bonnie and Clyde pulled off one last heist. #oscars

And this is what host Jimmy Kimmel has to say about it.
“Personally I blame @IamSteveHarvey for this.” – Jimmy #Kimmel #Oscars

However, as it turned out, it was not Warren and Faye’s fault as the envelopes got replaced mistakenly.
But whatever happened, the night became a whole lot more interesting because of this goof up.
