<p>Sunday night’s Oscars also saw another gaffe take place when an “alive and well” film producer was mistakenly included in the In Memoriam montage.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/IMG_1123.jpg"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/IMG_1123.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="333" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-108104" /></a><br />
Here are some memorable mishaps, from awards shows and reality TV programmes.</p>
<p>La La Land was given the best picture award by presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, before it became apparent that Moonlight was the winner of the prize.</p>
<p>The musical’s producers were coming to the end of their acceptance speeches when Jordan Horowitz, another La La Land producer, took to the microphone to correct the mistake.</p>
<p>Warren and Faye had been given the wrong envelope, the one for best actress, which had already been accepted by La La Land’s Emma Stone.</p>
<p>Earlier in the awards ceremony, the image of Australian film producer Jan Chapman was used in the montage of notable film industry members who had died in the past year.</p>
<p>Jan’s photo was used to represent her friend, Australian costume designer Janet Patterson, a four-time Oscar nominee who died in October 2016.</p>
<p>She told Variety: “I was devastated by the use of my image in place of my great friend and long-time collaborator Janet Patterson.</p>
<p>“I had urged her agency to check any photograph which might be used and understand that they were told that the Academy had it covered.</p>
<p>“Janet was a great beauty and four-time Oscar nominee and it is very disappointing that the error was not picked up.</p>
<p>“I am alive and well and an active producer.”</p>
<p>:: Miss Universe<br />
In 2015, US comedian Steve Harvey announced the wrong winner at the Miss Universe pageant in what is considered one of the most embarrassing prize-giving errors of all time.</p>
