The Oscars is off to a sickeningly woke start, opening with an actress saying that “if things had gone differently this past week in Minneapolis, I might have traded in my heels for marching boots.”
Actress Regina King, who had a supporting role in Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde, kicked off the show by talking about the Derek Chauvin trial.

“We are mourning the loss of so many, and I have to be honest, if things had gone differently this past week in Minneapolis, I might have traded in my heels for marching boots,” King said.
King went on to correctly acknowledge that many of us want celebrities to shut the heck up.
“I know a lot of you people at home want to reach for your remote when you feel like Hollywood is preaching to you,” King continued. “But as a mother of a Black son, I know the fear so many live with, and no amount of fame or fortune changes that.”
Last year, King wore a Breonna Taylor shirt to accept an Emmy last year for HBO’s “Watchmen.”
Taylor was killed in crossfire when her boyfriend got into a shoot out with police.
