Oh, would ya look at that? In a glitzy room full of ravishing movie stars, Academy Awards host Chris Rock turned everyone’s attention to some of the real people who inspired some of this year’s Oscars-nominated movies.

“It’s always fascinating to meet the real people that the movies are based on,” Rock said. “And some of them are here tonight. From Joy, the real Joy Mangano is here. Give it up for Joy. From Spotlight, The Boston Globe reporter the real Mike Rezendes is here. Give it up for Mike.”
