The Scandals:
Marisa Tomai won Best Supporting Actress Award for her performance in My Cousin Vinnie.
Singer Sinead O'Connor best known as a bald singer and for her hit Nothing Compares 2 U, tore up a picture of Pope John Paul II on Saturday Night Live, declaring 'Fight the real enemy.' In 1997, in an interview with the Italian newspaper Vita, the sometimes lapsing Catholic had asked the Holy Father to forgive her. No word if he made such a declaration, but forgiving was included with the Pope's job description, so we assume he did.
