‘But there’s always a catch’

ImLa La Land Im sorry, I read that wrong.

Im Stephen Colbert, the host ofThe Late Showriffed onthe Oscars mix-upduring his opening monologue Monday night.

It was the craziest ending to the Oscars since it turned out that Helen Mirren was Keyser Soze.

I feel bad for everybody inLa La Landand the poorMoonlightpeople, Colbert said.

It shouldve been a great moment for African-Americans, but theres always a catch.

Heres your Oscar, but some white folks get to touch it first.

To make matters worse, while they were up on stage, Ryan Gosling explained jazz to them.

Its like watchingTitanic, exceptTitanicactually won Best Picture.

I feel so bad.

I feel so bad.

Elsewhere, Colbert spoofed the moment with a backstage look.

In it, Beatty opens the winners envelope to find a card that reads STALL!!!
