regina king kicked off the award show by mentioning the murder conviction of derek chauvin.trayvon free criticized police in his acceptance speech. tyler perry who was honored with a humanitarian award last night had a different message about accepting all people. take a listen to what he had to say. >> it is my hope that all of us would teach our kids to refuse hate. don't hate anybody. i refuse to hate somebody because they are mexican or because they are black or white or lbgtq. i refuse to hate someone because they are a police officer. i refuse to hate someone because they are asian. i would hope we would refuse hate. carley: so i think that is a message we can all get behind. but like i said, guys, very dry show. there were no fun, musical performances, very few light hearted moments and not a lot of people saw the movies that were up for the awards. i can't imagine this being a memorable show for most people who were watching. jillian: i never saw one of them. carley: i usually like to see a lot of movies that were up for awards. didn't this year. they didn't really r

we were following regina king walk up to the stage and the credits. they said things like starring reese witherspoon and brad pitt. they were presenters and guests at the ceremony tonight. so it's a very different look, very different. feel they've set up union station in downtown los angeles has a very intimate romantic dimly lit dinner theater type of a venue type of atmosphere. so it feels very small. like i said, intimate, it's probably similar to the original oscars. 93 years ago on a very small scale, but they're doing this, of course, because of the pandemic, they have to be very careful. we've heard they've been rotating guess in and out throughout the night. different folks have been coming in and going out. they've gone through a very strict screening process with covid testing even if they're vaccinated, they're checking their temperatures. they have to wear their masks for much of the time other than when they're on camera. so they're following all of these safety protocols. very few members of the media are there tonight. that's why we ar
