British Actor Hugh Grant 's humour was a hit with The Crowd at the Dolby Theatre .

When presenting the award for best Production Design alongside his with his Four Weddings and a Funeral co-star Andie Macdowell , Grant joked: " The purpose of this is two-fold.

" The First is to raise the vital importance of a good moisturiser. Andie has used one Every Day of her life, I have not. "

When presenting the In Memoriam tribute for Hollywood figures who have died Last Year , John Travolta offered an emotional tribute to his Grease co-star Olivia Newton John.

" We remain Hopelessly Devoted to you, " Travolta tearfully said, referencing The Iconic song by Newton John.

" We want you to have fun, feel safe and, most importantly, we want me feel safe. So, we have strict policies in place, " Kimmel said.

" If anyone in this theatre commits an act of violence at any point during The Show , you will be awarded The Oscar for Best Actor and permitted to give a 19-minute long speech. "

" But Seriously , The Academy has a crisis team in place, " he added. " If anything unpredictable or violent happens during The Show , sit there and do absolutely nothing. Maybe even give the assailant a hug. "

In An Ode to the Irish film Banshees of Inisherin, Kimmel later brought a donkey On Stage .

" She's a certified emotional support donkey. At least that's what we told the airline to get her on the plane from Ireland. If you're Feeling Sad or need a hug. . Let's get you back on that Spirit Airlines flight now. "
