In an epic blunder to announce Best Picture at this year’s Oscars, Faye Dunaway read the wrong title for who actually won the award.
Moonlight was the true winner.

Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway were given the best actress award envelope by accident. A confused Beatty saw Emma Stone’s name and “La La Land,” and attempted to snag the attention of a producer to discuss the situation. However, Dunaway was able to read out “La La Land” before anything could be fixed. In a very awkward finish for the night, Moonlight was then announced as the real winner.
