1. Janelle Monáe kicked the show off with singing, dancing and truth-telling.
Monáe started the show with a few bars of the "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" theme song, in a nod to the Tom Hanks film, but was then joined by dancing Jokers, Nazis, "Midsommar" maidens and Billy Porter. We're still not sure what it had to do with anything, but at least it was high-energy. She also got Leonardo to sing, and she gave a shout-out to the female directors who were shut out of the nomination process in the major categories.
