Olivia Munn did not get great reviews from Twitter for her rap opening at the Critics’ Choice Awards. Jay Pharoah was by her side to help out, but the opening didn’t turn out quite right.
Munn also performed the rap with a key-tar, which Twitter thought was strange.

As the performance went on, Munn got a little bit better, but that didn’t please her real-time Twitter critics.
I knew Olivia Munn hosting would be painfully unfunny #CriticsChoiceAwards

Munn also made a joke about wishing the critics aren’t anti-Semitic. That came after a monologue where Munn just pointed out the A-listers in the crowd.
Some Twitter users were not impressed with Pharoah.
J*y ph*raoh is such a try hard.
The Olivia Munn parts were good tho!#CriticsChoiceAwards

The “attendance” gags were also wearing thin.
Prof. Munn is taking attendance right now. #CriticsChoiceAwards

Is it just me or do the #CriticsChoiceAwards feel like they’re being run in 1.5x speed? Also where the hell is Olivia Munn? I’m very concerned. #FINDOLIVIA
