Best 'Wrong Winner Announced' Videos

Founder and Publisher. Based in Brisbane.
Howard launched 'Scene Magazine' in 1993. Paul Keating was Prime Minister. Whitney, Janet and Mariah all had Aussie #1s and Mark Zuckerberg was 9. Over 30 years he's overseen the growth of scenestr to become Australia's largest – and only national – street press while forging a digital-first imperative in the mid-naughties. Social media remains a complete mystery to him. He's been spotted at raves, hip hop concerts, Motown revivals, judged battle of the bands, shot video for opening night and national awards red carpet, partnered with music industry showcases, comedy festivals and myriad other cultural productions ... and he interviewed Eddie Izzard. He likes Star Trek and a good Oxford comma — way too much fun at parties.

Did you enjoy today's clusterfvck at The Oscars? It’s time for the biggest award of the night and Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway have the envelope.


You know how it went down and the rest, as they say, is history – or eternity – or something like that. An eternity of memes and tubes, anyway.

On a bright note the duo made Steve Harvey the most relieved person on the planet today. But they're all winners... Warren and Faye and Steve are in great company.

For a good helping of schadenfreude to get the week started, here are three other awesome award announcement clusterfvcks that don't deserve to disappear from public consciousness any time soon. You're welcome.

A fan was selected to announce the name of the Viewers’ Choice Award at BET Awards 2011. At first she said Chris Brown was the winner but corrected her ‘mistake’ naming Rihanna featuring Drake as the winner for their song 'What's My Name'. Turns out Brown was the winner after all.

... but still, the grand daddy of them all...
