Hollywood Film Awards Get Political: Leonardo DiCaprio Speaks Out, James Corden Cracks Jokes



If an award show takes place on the Sunday before Election Day, you better believe that celebs will use the moment to weigh in on politics.
And that's exactly what happened tonight at the Hollywood Film Awards.
"This is it," host James Corden said during his opening monologue. "This could be the last awards ceremony before the apocalypse. Come Wednesday morning we could all be watching a real-life version of The Purge."
Robert De Niro thanked the HFA for being honored with this year's comedy award, but said, "I know we're here to celebrate movies in Hollywood...but it's two days before a frightening election and the shadow of politics is hanging over us whether we like it or not and it's hard fro me to think about anything else. So let me just lay it out right here--we have the opportunity to prevent a comedy from turning into a tragedy. Vote for Hillary Tuesday."
Leonardo DiCaprio didn't say Hillary Clinton's name, but you knew who he was talking about when he and Fisher Stevens received the documentary award for their climate change doc Before the Flood.
