The 89th Academy Awards took place on Sunday night, 26th February, 2017 (PST). 'La La Land', the recently popular film, got 6 awards for Best Actress in Leading Role, Best Directing, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, Best Original Song and Best Original Score.
But... life is full of ups and downs...
The presenter at the Oscars took the wrong envelope and mistakenly announced 'La La Land' as the Best Picture, but actually 'Moonlight' won! It must be the most embarrassing moment in Oscars history!
