Oh, what a night!!
On Sunday evening, performers from the big and small screens came together to celebrate the SAG Awards. This year was particularly memorable as the awards show had a host for the very first time. In case you missed it, the emcee was the always HIGHlarious, Kristen Bell.

In addition to Miz Bell’s splendid hosting chops, viewers witnessed some pretty inneresting moments. We mean, on top of Morgan Freeman shushing someone, James Franco looked practically pleased he didn’t win his SAG nomination. (With his sexual misconduct scandal, he can’t be feeling very chatty these days).
As always, Nicole Kidman wowed the crowd with her rousing acceptance speech. Be sure to ch-ch-check out all of these moments and more (below)…

Aziz Ansari Received The Silent Treatment When His Name Was Called
We could’ve cut the tension with a knife. Ansari was notably MIA from the 2018 SAG Awards as he’s recently been accused of sexual misconduct. And, clearly, no one wants to be associated with Aziz amid his controversy as he received no applause for his nomination.
Of course, Twitter was quick to point that out, as fans weighed in:
the SAG award for best ensemble goes to that awkward, entire-room silence when aziz ansari’s name was read out
