Hollywood’s biggest night turned into Warren Beatty’s biggest mistake when he announced the wrong winner for best picture.
The 89th Academy Awards saw Beatty and Faye Dunaway announce the musical ‘La La Land’ as the winner of the Oscar for Best Picture, and later called on stage the team of ‘Moonlight’ to accept their award.
It wasn’t until the cast of ‘La La Land’ were midway through the acceptance speech that they were interrupted by Beatty to announce that there was a mistake. It was then announced that ‘Moonlight’ was in fact the winner.
