You are a newbie but you seemed like a veteran. I was nervous. Little. Michael strahan says good to game. People were a little nervous wanting to know how chris rock would do and the one thing people are talking about making so many headlines, oscar host chris rocks monologue on diversity, the comedian taking the issue head on right from the top of the show and what he said changed the way a lot of people may be thinking about race here in america. Abcs Chris Connelly is here with more on that. Good morning, yes, indeed for chris rock it had to be an all eyes on me moment.

Well, im here at the Academy Award s otherwise known as the white peoples choice awards. Reporter host chris rock, his comic dazzle and daring on full display. You realize if they nominated hosts, i wouldnt even get this job. Reporter taking the oscars so white controversy head on and no one was safe. You got to figure that it happened in the 50s, in the the 60s and black people did not protest, why . Because we had real things to protest at the time. You know. Reporter even calling out africanamerican oscar boycotters. Will was not nominated. Its not fair. Youre right. Paid 20 million for wild, wild west okay.

Its like, we like you, rhonda, but youre not a kappa. Thats how hollywood is. Reporter the best, better we want opportunity. We want black actors to get the same opportunities and thats it. Reporter a comedic tour did you force with a high level of difficulty by a host who was up to the job. A job he says he decided not to back out of. Theyre not going to cancel the oscars because i quit. You know, and the last thing i need is to lose another job to kevin hart, okay. I mean he absolutely crushed it. As the oscar host its hard enough to make those first ten rows laugh but to do it with such thought was fantastic. He went there. He often does that. You brought up a good point. He has a narrative. There is a purpose behind it. Not just doing it for shock. Knows where hes going and make sure no one gets off the hook. He hit every single side of the issue in such a tight set. Really got a huge reaction inside. The laughter of people going, a lot of truth is being spoken here. Had to leave out that rihanna we all know live for another day. Hes also wise about kevin about it. He wants that job. They ought to give it to him. This is a hard job. If chris rock wants to keep doing it, he goes right ahead. Its not easy to be funny in that show. He was so great and big moments for leo dicaprio and brie larson. A lot of surprises and may have saved the biggest one for last. It was an incredible night of huge surprises. The oscar goes to spotlight. Reporter spotlight shining at the end clinching the biggest award of the night.

The standing owe vague, that doesnt happen all the time, leo. You know that. What did that mean to you, your peers . I was i was very moved. Leo, youve worked on many fine films over the years. What was it about this one and the way you speak so passionate passionately about it . We literally rehearsed for two weeks just for the opening sequence of this movie. It was so unique in its approach but more than that, it was being able to have conversations off meant and seeing it with my own eyes. Reporter the revenant also won an oscar for best director, Alejandro Inarritu taking home the award for the second time in a row. [ speaking a Foreign Language ]. Thank you to the academy. Congratulations. Thank you very much. Very happy. Two years in a row. That hasnt happened i think since they were saying in decades to have a director win backtoback. I know, i know. Has it ever happened . Yes, leo, it has but not since 1950. Maybe an accident, i guess, you know what, im so happy and so honored. Make sure for once and forever that the quarter of a scene become as irrelevant as the length of our hair. Climate change is real and it is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species. Both of your speeches were just outstanding. Thank you.

Yes, yes, im very awake right now. This is the craziest feeling. I dont even know what it is, what im feeling right now because its never happened before. I loved how you reached back with jacob and you kind of tapped him. I did . Yeah, you did. A house. Are you even listening to me . Is it true because it was such a deep subject matter, karaoke . A lot of karaoke, a lot. Whats your goto karaoke song . I wont make you sing it. I mostly like early 2000s r b, mariah carey, usher, destinys child. Those are all my gotos and thats what i was doing. You won an oscar, brie. You won an oscar. I cant believe it. I really cant believe it. She was just staring at it like that. Your gift to her, you didnt make her sing. That moment with leo was tweeted 440,000 times per minute making it the most tweeted minute from an oscars ever beating ellens selfie from 2014 and the internet wasnt done with leo. After he won there was some, well, some memes started popping up. That was, of course started celebrating like a world cup champion. As king of the world. He is king of the world. His mother was backstage and actually still had the card that said he was the winner and she said she was going to keep it. I keep all his memorabilia like a mom does. Talking before the show he grew up in the shadows of here. He did. He did and he talked about how his parents would take him on auditions and really encouraged him and he was a little quirky and they just supported him and he has worked so hard but that that spontaneous standing ovation really got to him. Meant a lot to him. From all your peers. We have a lot more coming up from the oscars. We turn to the white house right now, your voice, your vote, just one day away from the critical super tuesday contest. This hell cast their ballots. Could make Hillary Clinton and donald trump unstoppable. Also have a brandnew poll out moments ago it shows trump with his biggest lead yet at nearly 50 across the country. Abcs tom llamas has all the latest. Good morning. As we just saw polls show donald trump may have a big night tomorrow but now hes dealing with a problem involving the kkk and the other candidates are all seizing on it. Wow. Wow, this is amazing. Reporter overnight, donald trump speaking to a massive crowd in alabama, a super tuesday state, but not mentioning a syllable about the controversy involving the ku klux klan and their former grand wizard david duke. Wow say you condemn them and dont want their support . Well, i have to look at the group. I mean i dont know what group youre talking about. Im just talking about david duke and the ku klux klan here. I dont know i dont know david duke. I dont believe ive ever met him im pretty sure i never met him. Unloading on him by his rivals. We cannot be a party that nominates someone who refuses to condemn White Supremacists and the ku klux klan. David duke, i disavow and sending this clip from friday. I didnt even know he endorsed me. David duke endorsed me. I disavow. This as trumps other rival senator ted cruz hammered him for not releasing his tax returns as he and senator rubio have. There have been multiple media reports about donalds business dealings with the mob, with the pfaff ya, maybe his tax returns show that those business dealings are a lot more extensive. Business dealings with the mafia. We dont know. And trump not the only one feeling the heat. Governor Chris Christie who endorsed trump struggled to policies. Are you saying now you endorse the ban on having non noncitizen muslims no, thats not what im saying. Thats only one piece of an security. But you disagree with it. I said that very plainly. Listen, george, heres the bottom line, elections are choices. Reporter and overnight, things continued to get ugly. Responding to trump dubbing him rubio mocking trump for having small hands. You know what they say about men with small hands [ cheers and applause ] you cant trust them. You cant trust them. They say the republican race in a very strange spot right now. George. It sure is. Tom. This crowd know what is they say about small hands, i guess. We just heard it. I want to bring this to jon karl and, jon, looking ahead to tomorrow night, big contest. Give people a sense of what marco rubio and ted cruz need to trump. Well, george, theyve got to keep him from running away from it. For ted cruz, everything is at stake because look at this. Tuesday. Hes got to win there. If he can get 50 of the vote there he can get away with the lions share of the delegates but he has to do more. All these southern states, that is where ted cruz has banked his campaign. Hes got to find a way to win there. As for marco rubio, its unclear hes been targeting minnesota, virginia, arkansas, he can keep getting delegates by coming in a close second or third, but hes got to find a place to win. I think 20 is his biggest number, 20 in texas if he gets less than that he can get shut out of all of texas delegate. They have to build up enough delegates to try to block trump even if they cant get there themselves. On the democratic side Hillary Clinton coming out of that big win saturday in south carolina. Looks like shes ready to roll through the south. Thats right and Bernie Sanders has to find a way to win somewhere where we dont expect him to. His home state votes, he can win there. Probably massachusetts next door but hes got to find a way not to geddes mated again in the south. Okay, jon karl, thanks very much. Were going to be out in force on super tuesday.
