The 97th Academy Awards had plenty of star power, but it was its host, who often jokes about his family, who stole the spotlight at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on March 2, 2025.<\/p>\n

Conan’s attempt at humor at the Oscars became one of the night’s most talked-about moments. Midway through hosting the show, he\u00a0quipped<\/a>, “Well, we’re halfway through the show, which means it’s time for Kendrick Lamar to come out and call Drake a pedophile.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The remark was met with a few scattered laughs and claps before Conan quickly\u00a0followed<\/a>\u00a0up with, “Don’t worry, I’m lawyered up.” Social media quickly erupted with responses to the comedian’s joke, with many viewers criticizing it as inappropriate and unnecessary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
