I watched the Oscars for the first time and I really enjoyed it. Here are my thoughts ....

1. Chris Rock did a great job. His opening monologue was too funny.
2. I actually enjoyed Beyonce's performances. I think she is extremely talented, but it is often overshadowed by all of the DC drama. I am actually a big fan of her's.
3. I was very happy for Morgan Freeman. I didn't know that this was his first oscar. He is an outstanding actor who has obviously been overlooked. But then there are many overlooked AA actors/actresses on that list (Don Cheadle, Samuel L. Jackson, Angela Basset, etc.)
4. I was sooo happy for Jaime Foxx. I was screaming, but then had to remember that my son was sleep so I settled down. His speech was great. I also thought it was sweet that he brought his daughter as his date. It was even sweeter when he said that she told him "Daddy even if you don't win, you're still good". This is true for so many of our actors.
