Conan O'Brien hosted the Oscars for the first time, opening with a memorable joke about 'The Substance'.
His comedic monologue followed a moving tribute to Los Angeles and stunning musical performances from Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo.
Emerging from a surprising skit involving Demi Moore, O'Brien's debut was both unexpected and entertaining.
Despite being a first-time host, O'Brien's experience with other awards shows prepared him for the prestigious event.
