With a little help from Captain Kirk, Channing Tatum, Charlize Theron, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Daniel Radcliffe, Seth MacFarlane opened Sunday night's Oscar awards in a music and dance heavy monologue that included a Chris Brown-Rihanna joke and a reference to Tommy Lee Jones' grumpy Golden Globes face. In a particularly controversial dig at Hollywood's leading ladies, MacFarlane also performed a musical tribute to actresses who have shown their breasts on screen.
