Amber Ruffin Recaps the 2022 Oscars - Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

[davidlundquist]

I swear, Amber could spend half an hour just talking about the lousy traffic on her drive home from work, and it would still be one of the most entertaining things I've ever heard.

[lovingtennis]

It doesn't seem like her face changed, but it did somehow and the smile turned into fear. Amber, you're so great!

[HermesSonofZeus]

"The sweet tea I was enjoying lost all its flavor." That, and so much more, brilliant delivery!

[aaronfelman]

Seth’s look of admiration towards Amber right before the video ends is quite endearing.

[MemoSelf]

She deserves TWO Emmys for that bit, for writing AND performing.

[shinankoku]

Yeah, I didn’t know I needed Amber’s take on the Oscars until I saw that Amber had a take on the Oscars.

[DemonWarp]

This was like a miniature Jordan Peele film. Amber Ruffin is a national treasure. Thank you for being a ray of sunshine in these dark times, Amber.

[marya.]

Amber deserves an Oscar for this her tragi-comedic retelling of..."an evening at the Oscars: 3/27/2022".
PRICELESS!!!

[TedsHoldOver]

Amber never tackles a subject head-on. She squeezes the bull-crap out of it, and then lampoons the lampooners. 🤣

[NewMessage]

If ever there was time for Amber to say "WHAT?!?!?", it was last night.

[sylviahoffman]

And the award for Best Dramatic Representation and Interpretation of the Recap of the Oscars goes to Amber Ruffin! 🏆

[movekeysdapianoman]

Amber you have been such a voice these past few years, expressing exactly what our community have been thinking. I truly appreciate you and believe you are one of the best to ever do it.

[EthanKristopherHartley]

Phew! A lesser person would be likely to over dramatise the recap and then ham it up into a huge issue. Thank goodness Seth has Amber to pitch it just right. 😄🤣😂

[Amanda-kipg]

Amber brings so much joy to my life. Whatever y'all are paying her isn't enough.

[TheCoolCookieKitchen]

Amber described it so well!!! I also would have paid good money to watch her reaction in real time. Love her!

[steveewunder]

What a thin tightrope. What an excellent walk, nay, stroll. Applause on high for uniting both camps through the theatrics of absurdism. 🙏👏👏👏👏

[TheKASSEB]

this was great script and great acting ...deserves an oscar

[BrettWB]

F’n brilliant. This woman should have her own show.
Oh? She does?
Get her to host the damn Oscars then.

[CWBella]

Fantastic! You should win an award, don’t know what the category would be, but you should win an award for this monologue! The blouse looks totally awesome, as well.

[coxwellnewswire]

I can't wait for Amber to host the Oscars. Not only will it will awesome but her gown changes will be epic.
