In a few days, millions of Americans will watch their favorite movie stars grace the stage at the 91st Academy Awards. Although it’s a significant event, the Oscars aren’t immune to obnoxious Hollywood cheesiness. To help endure the entire three-hour ceremony, follow this drinking game for the 2019 Oscars:
Drink once if:
- A long acceptance speech gets cut off by instrumental music
- President Donald Trump and/or his administration gets name-dropped or referenced
- They show a close-up of Bradley Cooper’s beautiful face
- Someone cries (double if it happens while mentioning a family member)
- The person you think is going to win actually wins
- Someone uses the phrase “now more than ever”
Drink twice if:
- A “special guest” appears (down your drink if it’s Oprah)
- Someone starts handing out food, candy or some other goodies to the audience
- We see a Freddie Mercury hologram
- Thanos appears on-screen
- Someone looks pissed off that they lost (double if it’s Sam Elliott)
- God is the first person thanked in an acceptance speech
Finish your drink if:
- Lady Gaga trips on her dress
- Someone keeps talking after the microphone is cut off during their acceptance speech
- You roll your eyes when the Academy trots out Cheryl Boone-Isaacs during the ceremony to pretend like it cares about diversity
Down the entire bottle if:
- Someone pulls a La La Land by announcing the wrong winner
- Kevin Hart is there
