Kristen Bell just delivered a strong opening monologue as the first ever host of the SAG Awards on Sunday.
Fronting a deliberately all-female presenter bill for the 2018 ceremony, The Good Placestar presented a strong opening speech — and with the Time's Up and #MeToo movements against systemic sexual abuse in Hollywood gaining immense traction, Bell's monologue was always going to include a nod.

“Everyone’s story deserves to be told — especially now," she said. "We are living in a watershed moment, and as we march forward with active momentum and open ears, let’s make sure that we’re leading the charge with empathy and diligence. Because fear and anger never win the race.”
"Fear and anger never win the race.”
In true Bell form, she added a little self-referential joke at the end: “And most importantly, regardless of our differences, I think we can all come together and delight in one thing: Frozen 2is coming out in theaters 2019, you guys.”
Bell also started the proceedings with a thinly veiled dig at Melania Trump and her delayed push against cyberbullying.
“There has never been a host for this awards show before. It’s the first time. First person. First lady. And I honestly never thought that I’d grow up to be the first lady, but you know what? I kind of like it. I think my first initiative as first lady will be cyberbullying. I have yet to see any progress made on that problem quite yet.”
Forkin' great.
