The Hollywood A-listers seated in the front row at Sunday night's Oscars were just as stunned as viewers at home when the Best Picture award was given to the wrong movie. Announcers Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway had accidentally been given the wrong envelope by accountants with PriceWaterHouseCoopers, who tabulate the Academy's voting. Meryl Streep gaped at towards the stage, while The Rock, seated behind her, looked equally confused. Sitting another row back was the Academy's president, Cheryl Boone Isaacs, who seemed just as out of the loop.

The creme da la creme of Hollywood headed to the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscar Party at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills on Sunday evening for post-award festivities. Leading the way was pregnant Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (left), who showed off her growing baby bump while hitting the red carpet with her fiancé Jason Statham. She was joined by Katy Perry, Jennifer Aniston and Emily Ratajkowski (centre left-right) at the incredibly glamorous bash. 

HA HA HA HA HA... Sorry. Nope, not sorry. Let's be honest, the greatest Oscars fiasco in history couldn't have happened to a bunch of smugger, more deserving people. All night, the theme of the Academy Awards had been one of 'truth'. Warren Beatty strode on stage with Faye Dunaway to present the final award for Best Picture and gleefully seized on it: 'Our goal in politics is the same as our goal in art, and that's to get to the truth,' he solemnly declared. Then the most spectacular, humiliating, hide-behind-the-couch moment to ever befell any awards show happened on the night they conspired to damn Donald Trump with 'The Truth'.

Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem found that people are better than random chance at matching the faces of strangers with a name. Most of us can guess the name of a stranger with up to 40 per cent accuracy, the study found. Try to match the names of strangers to their faces to see if you can beat a score of 64 per cent, achieved by a computer algorithm. Researchers claim that manifestation of the name in a face might be due to people subconsciously altering their appearance to conform to cultural norms.

A self-proclaimed 'racist' white Australian who admitted that he would never date someone of a different race has had his mind opened after going for drinks with a Muslim woman. Raymond, a tradie from Victoria, admitted on the SBS show Date My Race that he would never go out with an an Indian woman, purely because they were not white. 'To me it could be a little bit racist, but a preference is a preference,' he said. But after being sent on a date with Muslim woman Rita, Raymond quickly opened his mind - and may just have found himself a new girlfriend. The pair ended their first date by setting up a second meeting - with Rita promising to wear Raymond's favourite colour, red.

Cheryl from Married at First Sight Australia (inset) introduced new partner Andrew (right) to her dad, Hamish, (left) on Monday night's episode. But the protective father wasn't impressed.

A little bit of banter between sports pundits never did anyone any harm.

Anasta, 35, and Johns were hosting the live launch of the network's new 24-hour NRL channel when the former Newcastle and Cronulla star laid into his colleague. Johns was congratulating fellow presenter Tara Rushton on her engagement to Melbourne Storm player Cooper Cronk when he turned to Anasta. 'I've got to tell you though Tara, marriage is tough, and Braith you'll back me up on that. Isn't it true?' he pointedly said.

She didn't even know that death was travelling with us, and that it would take her that night,' he wrote.

Jewish women and children, who have been selected for death, walk in a line towards the gas chambers in a horrifying image (pictured) published in a new book. Another image shows Jewish people queuing up to use what they thought were showers (inset). More than a million people - most of them Jewish - lost their lives at Auschwitz, which is near Krakow in modern-day Poland. The book's author, military historian Ian Baxter said: 'It shows the step-by-step transformation of the buildings including the crematoria and how these buildings aided the largest killing factory of all time. Many of these buildings are still standing today.'

Experts analysing North Korea can pinpoint the location of the photographs and even the date they were taken depending on how fat he is.
