*We’re not sure who, but somebody at the Oscars thought putting the overt wild woman Tiffany Haddish with the more covert wild woman Maya Rudolf would be a good idea and yield some funny moments. And that’s exactly what happened.
If you missed it, Sunday night at the 90th annual Academy Awards the awesome twosome presented Oscars for animated and live action short films and they also presented one of the most hilarious bits of the evening.
Spotlighting the #OscarsSoWhite controversy in recent years, Haddish and Rudolph were quick to reassure viewers that plenty of white people would make an appearance during the remainder of the evening.
“So many! We just came from backstage and there are tons of them back there!” Haddish said. “And not just movie stars—there are white people walking around with headsets, white people with clipboards. Now, I’m personally not a fan of white people with clipboards, because I’m always wondering what are they writing down about me?”
“Oh yeah, when they’re like, ‘I’m sorry you’re not on the list, and they didn’t check all the pages,’” Rudolph added. “I’m like, ‘Hey, white dude with the clipboard, check all the pages.”
Not only did the celebs in the audience enjoy the skit, but Twitter and social media is calling for these same two, or Haddish in particular, to host next years Oscars.

Maya Rudolph and Tiffany Haddish appeared and I immediately screamed “Thelma and Louise reboot” at a stranger.
