Jimmy also explains why Oscar is the most respected man in Hollywood as
he is literally a statue with no limitations. Helen Mirren helps Jimmy
reveal the award for shortest Oscar acceptance speech of the night - a
jet ski. He also made few jokes saying, ""This year if you hear your
name called, don't get up right away"" (alluding to last year's Oscars

mentioned how this was a historic night, ""This is the 90th Academy
Awards, this is history happening here {...} This is a night for
positivity.""
