5 Hot Stories: Hannah Berner Oscars Backlash, 'Friends' Allegations

Comedian Hannah Berner recently made headlines following her appearance at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. The 33-year-old cohosted the event’s red carpet alongside her best friend and former Summer House costar Paige DeSorbo, where they interviewed celebrities arriving for the annual awards show afterparty. During the evening, a video of Berner conversing with Megan Thee Stallion gained traction online, with certain fans criticizing Berner for allegedly displaying racial bias by stating, “When I want to fight someone, I listen to your music.” Addressing the situation, Berner took to social media on Thursday, March 6, to address the matter, expressing, “Interviewing Megan Thee Stallion was a dream come true for me. I admire her music and often turn to it for a confidence boost before performances. Reflecting on the interview, I regret my choice of words and wish I had used a different term than ‘fight’ to depict how her songs resonate with me.” Berner apologized directly to Megan for her unintentional offense and clarified that her remark was not made with any harmful intentions.
