Oscars 2019: Well, that's a first! Check out the five best moments from the award ceremony

While actors and actresses of color took the center stage this time, Netflix saw its entry into the world of cinema through Alfonso Cuaron's 'Roma'.

The 91st Academy Awards would have been utter disappointment with almost giving up on all the Oscars charm. However, like most other years this year too saw several such instances which in a way restored our faith that first-times are still a trend at the Oscars. 

While actors and actresses of color took the center stage this time, and Netflix saw its entry into the world of cinema through Alfonso Cuaron's 'Roma', here are the top 5 picks of all the first times that went down at the Oscars 2019: 

1. Goodbye Hosts, welcome Queen

For the first time in 30 years, the Oscars did away with its intense long opening monologues and opened the show with a rendition by Queen. While Brian May brought back some of the '70s charms on the stage, he was accompanied by his fellow collaborator, Adam Lambert. The two tuned into some of the most popular tracks of the band which was led by Freddie Mercury, including the band's iconic song, 'We Are The Champions'.
