The choice for John Travolta is not accidental: the actor has teamed up with Olivia Newton-John Grease and the two have always remained good friends. For the actor, the memorial is therefore extra charged. “They touched our hearts, they made us laugh and they became good friends to whom we will be forever connected,” he introduces it in memoriam.
While it’s a touching moment, viewers notice that quite a few stars have been forgotten. So come Leslie Jordan, Anne Heche and Goodfellasactor Paul Sorvino is not over at all. And that doesn’t sit well with a lot of people. “Why wasn’t Leslie Jordan in the memorial? That’s really gross about the Oscars,” someone tweeted. “The Oscars just forgot about Leslie Jordan and Anne Heche in their memorial,” another tweeted.
