[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 14089, member: 83"] Nobody saw that coming. Earlier this evening, the 94th Academy Awards kicked off with an unforgettable performance from Beyoncé, who tapped her 10-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter to dance alongside her as she [URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/blue-ivys-choreography-steals-the-show-during-beyonc-s-be-alive-performance-at-the-oscars-news.149687.html']performed "Be Alive" from the [I]King Richard[/I] soundtrack[/URL]. After some awards were handed out, audiences also saw artists like Megan Thee Stallion and Billie Eilish take to the stage to show off their vocal talents, although the most-talked-about part of the evening (so far, anyway) wouldn't come until 57-year-old Chris Rock took to the stage to present to award for Best Documentary Feature.

"Jada, I love ya," he began. "[I]GI Joe 2[/I], can't wait to see it," Rock continued, making an unfortunate joke at the actresses' expense.
