Kristen Bell Roasts Emma Stone & More Celebrities’ Name Changes at Actor Awards
The Actor Awards 2026 were rated PG-13.
During the ceremony in Los Angeles March 1, host Kristen Bell seemingly made an award show faux pas when she said a curse word during her opening monologue song.
During her hilarious musical number, Kristen abruptly stopped singing after accidentally referring to the Actor Awards as its previous name, the SAG Awards.
“Oh, f–k me,” she exclaimed before she re-sang the line as “at the Actor Awards.” (For every star who went home a winner at the 2026 Actor Awards, click here.)
And while other award shows would normally bleep out the swear, Kristen’s slip-up aired without any cover-ups. As for why her curse word was allowed to be heard on the show? The Actor Awards aired on Netflix this year instead of broadcast television, which observes different rules than the streaming platform.
And that’s not the only new rule that the Actor Awards incorporated into its event.
