Timothée Chalamet bewilders in all-yellow look – prompting butter comparisons

Fashion fans were quick to slam Timothée Chalamet last night after he attended the Oscars 2025 in a butter-yellow suit.

Chalamet, who was up for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown, came to the awards wearing a custom leather two-piece by Givenchy.

However, the look wasn’t for everyone, as many took to X to share their thoughts on his bold look, with some even comparing him to The Man with the Yellow Hat in the Curious George series.

Others simply claimed he looked like a stick of butter.

Actress Margaret Qualley opened the segment with a dance tribute to Bond Girls

As a tribute to the James Bond franchise’s long-time producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson – given lifetime achievement awards by the Academy a few months ago – a star-studded tribute to the series was among one of the musical performances at last night’s Oscars.

The medley was introduced by Oscar winner Halle Berry, who played Bond girl Jinx in Die Another Day. It was followed by a dance tribute to Bond Girls by The Substance actress Margaret Qualley, who donned a glamorous red dress for the occasion.

Then, LISA, from Korean pop band Blackpink, sung famous Bond theme Live And Let Die, followed by American rapper and singer Doja Cat taking on Diamonds Are Forever.

Viewers were not so keen on the 29-year-old’s rendition of the Shirley Bassey classic, with one commenter taking to social media to say: ‘Doja Cat sounds like a dead cat.’

British singer Raye closed out the segment with a powerful rendition of Adele’s Skyfall.

Demi Moore and Sydney Sweeney's very similar afterparty looks, which had us seeing double

Demi Moore and Sydney Sweeney suffered an awkward fashion blunder at the Vanity Fair post-Oscars bash on Sunday night as they arrived in nearly the same dress.

The film Demi was up for Best Actress for, The Substance, is about a woman who duplicates herself – and her look at the Academy Awards afterparty seemed also to have a double.

While both actresses looked sensational in their respective looks, Demi and Sydney’s glittering halterneck gowns were strikingly similar in style.

Both sequin dresses featured cut-out sections across the bust, as well as a high halter neck cut.

Their stunning gowns were cinched at the waist and cascaded down to the ground.

Demi’s version of the dress was a glittering gold colour, while Sydney, 27, was sporting a pale pink version of the number.

Both women wore their long locks in a loose style and enhanced their looks with glamorous make-up.

Ariana Grande divided fans with her fashion choice at the Oscars last night, donning a voluminous gown – but it proved to be very handy when it came to holding her accessories.

The songstress was spotted briefly during the broadcast when she rose to her feet next to her costar Cynthia Erivo to applaud Wicked’s costume designer Paul Tazewell, who won the Oscar for his efforts on their film.

As she stood up for a standing ovation, her phone was clearly visible resting on the ripple shelf of her skirt.

And at another point, when performing with costar Cynthia Erivo to open the ceremony, she donned a ruby gown to perform Over The Rainbow from The Wizard Of Oz – the colour of the frock inspired by Dorothy’s iconic shoes.

But what fascinated viewers most about the garment was the ruby slipper attached to the back of the dress, in a clear homage to the film character.

The Academy Awards are there to celebrate the best in film – but they are made even more glamorous by stars taking to the stage to belt their hearts out in song.

In case you missed them, here are the first of the singers that graced last night’s ceremony:

Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande sing Wicked medley

The two Wicked stars, nominated for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress respectively, opened last night’s ceremony with a gorgeous Wicked-inspired medley.

Grande began with Over The Rainbow from The Wizard Of Oz, in a red dress to reference Dorothy’s famous shoes – followed by Erivo singing Home from 1974 musical The Wiz.

The two then reunited for Wicked’s Defying Gravity. Erivo pulled off the stunning final riff flawlessly – and there was not a dry eye in the house.

Flow, a dialogue-free Latvian film about a cat who tries to find safety after its home is destroyed by a flood, took home the award for Best Animated Feature last night, beating blockbuster Inside Out 2.

Director Gints Zilbalodis took to the stage to give a speech and receive the trophy, thanking his mother, father and pets and saying: ‘We are all in the same boat and must overcome our differences to find ways to work together.’

But all that winning is hungry work – so he popped down to the In-N-Out fast food restaurant down the road for a quick burger after the ceremony, a notorious haunt for peckish celebs after the annual awards.

He posted to X photos of him tucking into his meal there, along with a screenshot of an email from American actor Paul Giamatti – who went viral last year for a post-Golden Globes meal at the same In-N-Out branch.

Giamatti, who won the Golden Globe for his performance in The Holdovers in 2023, said to Zilbalodis: ‘Congratulations!!! Wonderful!!! Beautiful!!!! What a wonderful day.’

After running in last year’s presidential election, American politician Kamala Harris had a chilled night yesterday, watching the Oscars from home with her husband Doug Emhoff.

Mr Emhoff took to X to show the couple’s preparation for their Academy Awards watch party – which included cracking open a bag of Doritos.

It put to rest rumours circulating earlier yesterday that Ms Harris was to be a surprise guest at the awards ceremony, potentially leading a segment paying tribute to the firefighters who bravely fought the LA wildfires.

But the former vice-president instead had a relaxed night-in, sporting a black sweater and a casual bun as she settled in at home for the night.

With cameras constantly at the ready for one of Hollywood’s biggest nights of the year, there is no shortage of clips of the glitz and glamour of the red carpet fashion.

‘s video team has more, with clips of some of the most dazzling looks of the night:

Demi Moore’s tense one-word reaction to her shock Best Actress Oscar loss to Mikey Madison has been revealed.

The Substance, 62, was the favourite to take home the trophy after winning all the major awards – except a BAFTA – in the run-up to yesterday’s ceremony.

But it was Madison, 25, who got the award on the night – and camera’s captured Moore’s slightly icy reaction.

Lip reader Nicola Hickling exclusively told exactly what she said – our reporter reveals all:

The Oscars Vanity Fair after party had a running theme amongst its guests’ ensembles following Sunday’s ceremony – most stars turned up in next to nothing.

From peek-a-boo derriere gowns to full naked looks, the A-list sported an array of risque looks for the bash at The Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills.

Megan Thee Stallion left very little to the imagination in an eye-popping green look that exposed her breasts as it stopped just below them – with the star sporting nipple covers.

Another celeb who bared all was Olivia Wilde, who went braless in a sheer, ivory Chloe dress with a pair of lacy briefs underneath.

And Julia Fox arrived in a completely see-through dress, where her modesty was only covered by her artfully place, long dark hair.

One of the biggest nights in film, featuring some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, is bound to produce some clips to remember – and last night’s ceremony did not disappoint.

Here are some of favourite moments on film from this year’s Oscars:

The red carpet at this year’s Oscars sparked discussions about Hollywood’s increasingly slender aesthetic.

The Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles saw a parade of slimmed-down A-listers, fuelling concerns that Ozempic is driving a return to the size zero trend.

Among the slender stars gracing this year’s ceremony were Wicked star Ariana Grande, The Substance’s Demi Moore and actress Whoopi Goldberg.

‘s video team has more:

Adrien Brody won his second Best Actor award for Holocaust drama The Brutalist – but achieving one of the highest accolades in Hollywood did not stop him being slammed for his ‘disgusting’ act as he walked towards the stage.

As the 51-year-old actor mounted the steps, he turned around, took his chewing gum out of his mouth and threw it to girlfriend and Harvey Weinstein’s ex Georgina Chapman, 48 – much to viewer’s disgust.

Chapman ran up to her partner and diligently caught the gum before he made his speech – which went far beyond his allocated 45 seconds, stretching to five minutes, as he cut off the play-off music.

Fans quickly slammed the star for the moment, saying in one case: ‘Adrien Brody could’ve used his long speech to apologise to his partner for throwing gum at her.’

Watch the video of the bizarre moment in our coverage below:

Sean Baker, the director of the Academy Award-winning best picture Anora, entered Oscars folklore last night as he matched a 70-year-old record held by none other than Walt Disney

Baker scooped four wins for Anora, best picture, best director, best editing and best original screenplay, on a stunning night for the independent filmmaker.

He becomes only the second person to win four individual Oscars on a single night after Walt Disney did the same in 1954.

Unlike Disney though, Baker’s awards were for a single film which received further success when Mikey Madison was presented with the best actress award.

Speaking on the Dolby Theatre stage, Baker, 54, said: ‘This is my battle cry: Filmmakers, keep making films for the big screen. I know I will.’

The 97th Academy Awards ceremony saw some unexpected celeb faces rock up – to our collective delight. Take a look at our round-up of the the surprising faces we were thrilled to see:

When Harry Met Sally's Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal

The stars of When Harry Met Sally, Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, reunited to present the Best Picture trophy to Anora.

It marked Ryan’s first appearance at the Oscars in 27 years – and the audience were delighted as the pair stepped out to the tune of It Had To Be You, the soundtrack to the beloved 1989 romcom they starred in together.

In their speech before reading out the nominations, Crystal made a nod to his character Harry’s confession of love to Sally at the end of the film: ‘You’re right because when you have a chance to be an Oscar winner for the rest of your life, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.’

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger

The musician unexpectedly rocked up to present Best Original Song, to the delight of the audience, who gave him a standing ovation – including fellow singer Elton John.

He revealed onstage he wasn’t the first choice to present the category – but that musician Bob Dylan, whose biopic A Complete Unknown was nominated for eight awards, had initially been approached.

But according to 81-year-old Jagger, Dylan, 83, declined: ‘Bob said, “You should find somebody younger”. I said, “OK, I’m younger”, so here I am.’

Morgan Freeman paying tribute to Gene Hackman

We are always happy to see the 87-year-old actor, who spoke at the ceremony – but on this occasion, it was unfortunately under incredibly tragic circumstances.

He paid an emotional tribute to his friend and costar, double Oscar winner Gene Hackman, 95, who was found dead along with his wife Betsy Arakawa, 64, earlier this week.

Their bodies were found partially mummified at their $3.3million Santa Fe mansion, with pills strewn in their bahtroom. Their causes of death remain a mystery.

Freeman said: ‘Well, this week, our community lost a giant, and I lost a dear friend, Gene Hackman. I had the pleasure of working alongside Gene on two films, Unforgiven and Under Suspicion.

‘And like everyone who ever shared a scene with him, I learned he was a generous performer, a man whose gifts elevated everyone’s work. He received two Oscars, but more importantly, he won the hearts of film lovers all over the world.

‘Gene always said, “I don’t think about legacy. I just hope people remember me as someone who tried to do good work.”

‘I think I speak for us all when I say, Gene, you will be remembered for that, and so much more. Rest in peace, my friend.’

LA Fire Captain Erik Scott makes one of the biggest quips of the night as he takes to the stage with other LA blaze firefighters

This year, the Oscars ceremony in Los Angeles was preceded by a sombre period for the American city – which had been ravaged by wildfires, killing 29 people.

After the Golden Globes and Grammys made the devastating blazes a central part of their ceremonies, the Oscars mentioned them only a few times – suggesting Los Angeles is starting to rebuild and move on.

But in a particularly poignant moment, the firefighters who fought the flames were welcomed onstage, with host Conan O’Brien dubbing them ‘heroes’ to a standing ovation.

And in a hilarious turn, the presenter handed over control of the teleprompter to them at one stage. LA Fire Captain Erik Scott read out a joke that said their sympathies were with everyone who lost their homes – including those who made Joker 2, which critically bombed.

Getting an enormous laugh from the audience, O’Brien was nearly out of a job – the host said the firefighter’s cheeky moment was the best comic timing of the night.

The Academy Awards are always a glitzy night for film stars – but there were a couple in particular who really dazzled with their looks at this year’s ceremony.

Emilia Perez star Selena Gomez led the best-dressed list on the red carpet, in a custom, skin tight, rose gold, mesh Ralph Lauren gown, with her short locks in old Hollywood waves.

Demi Moore, nominated for Best Actress for The Substance, also went for a metalic hue, opting for a grey-silver Armani Prive number highlighting her incredible physique.

Halle Berry wowed in a silver, almost disco ball style frock from Christian Siriano, made from a mosaic of mirrored pieces, that she sported with minimal jewellery, with her short hair worn loose.

And Emma Stone chose a simple nude and silver gown from Louis Vuitton, with her hair arranged in 1930s-style finger waves.

Our reporter has more:

Actor and comedian Adam Sandler looked slightly less glamorous than some of his fellow attendees – in a blue hoodie with the hood up, a Hawaiian shirt and basketball shorts.

Host Conan O’Brien called attention to his look near the start of the evening, describing him as ‘dressed like a guy playing video poker at 2am’.

After a bit of jokey back and forth, Sandler got up to say he was ‘leaving’, making sure to greet a laughing Timothée Chalamet with a friendly slap on the back and saying ‘Chalamet’ before he made his exit.

It harked back to Sandler’s recent surprise appearance on American comedy show Saturday Night Live to introduce Chalamet as host but also a musical guest, performing two Bob Dylan songs from his turn as the singer in biopic A Complete Unknown.

On that occasion, Sandler playfully mispronounced Chalamet’s surname – and he could not resist doing the same at last night’s Oscar.

Fans watching the 2025 Academy Awards ceremony on TV only got part of the story.

Behind the scenes, Hollywood’s biggest stars showed off alternately charming and ridiculous displays.

Wicked star Ariana Grande briefly repurposed her dress’s rigid skirt as a phone holder when joining the standing ovation for the film’s costume designer Paul Tazewell, who won the Oscar for his efforts.

Her phone, protected by a case with a bear on it, was clearly visible resting on the rippled shelf on top of her skirt.

And another Wicked star, Jeff Goldblum, was spotted Googling his own red carpet looks during some downtime.

Take a look at more of the sweetest – and wackiest – off-screen moments below:

The biggest night in film was full of memorable moments – from smooches, to storming out, to sombre moments reflecting on the recent Los Angeles wildfires. Take a look at the first of the biggest moments below:

Halle Berry locks lips with Best Actor winner Adrien Brody

In a moment that took everyone around them on the red carpet by surprise, American actress Halle Berry ran up to Best Actor winner Adrien Brody and gave him a big smooch on the lips.

It was self-confessed payback for a moment at the Academy Awards in 2003, when Brody last won Best Actor, for war drama The Pianist. After Berry gave him his trophy, The Brutalist star turned around and gave her a kiss, elated at his victory.

Berry told Variety: ‘I had to pay him back.’

And she said to Extra that Brody’s girlfriend Georgina Chapman ‘was fine’ with it – and Chapman can be seen laughing in the background of a clip the Academy posted on X of the moment.

The Academy’s posted was captioned: ‘A reunion 22 years in the making.’

If you’re just joining us, the red carpet livestream at the legendary Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty finished at 11pm PT (or 7am GMT) – and pictures are flooding in of all the celebrity looks at the glamorous post-ceremony shindig.

The magazine’s post-Oscars bash is celebrating its 31st anniversary this year and it is the only place to be after the 97th Academy Awards have come to a close.

The iconic party in Beverly Hills sees the night’s biggest winners and other stars of the moment come together to celebrate one of the most prestigious nights in the film calendar.

Take a look below at some of the looks celebrities stepped out in for the big Oscars bash:

British actress and singer Cynthia Erivo, who was nominated for Best Actress for her turn in musical film Wicked, sported a draped tulle number with a heart-shaped bag

Zoe Saldana beamed in a scoop neck black top and pink ruffled skirt as she held her Best Supporting Actress gong for Emilia Perez

Best Actress winner Mikey Madison looked glamorous in a classic back dress as she clutched her trophy for Anora with pride

Best Actor winner Adrien Brody, who won for The Brutalist, hit the red carpet with girlfriend Georgina Chapman

Here is the moment Elizabeth Hurley and her son Damian arrived at the Vanity Fair afterparty in Beverly Hills.

Do you think they stunned or missed the mark with their ensembles. Let us know in the comment section.

The couple was beaming as they posed on the carpet arm-in-arm.

Lauren looked like she was ready to walk down the aisle in her strapless white gown, which resembled a wedding dress.

The ladies all looked stunning in their glamorous dresses.

Other stars who made the list includes Tracee Ellis Ross, Sarah Paulson, and Anna Kendrick.

Diane Warren has been an industry titan for decades, not just in pop music but writing for movies like Con Air, Armageddon and Pearl Harbor.

The 68-year-old musician has been nominated for an Oscars 16 times but has fallen short of gold each time, including tonight.

In response to Diane’s latest defeat, fans unearthed a crushing clip of her losing the Oscar three years go – when she was unable to conceal her disappointment.

The actress doned a white number that contained a skirt and tiny tube tob on her chest that was connected with a sheer mesh piece of fabric.

The ensemble left her toned midriff on full display.

The actress has been open about her struggles with sclerosis diagnosis, and her dog Scout is often by her side at events.

The night is far from over as a slew of A-listers have now started to arrive at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty to celebrate the big night.

The actress wore a risky, sheer, ivory dress by Chloe at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscars party.

The delicate, see-through frock teased Olivia’s cleavage with its plunging neckline.

The awards show is official over, with Anora taking home five awards, The Brutalist earning three, and Emilia Perez, Wicked, and Dune: Part Two all getting two.

Now it’s on to the afterparty, where the stars are expected to dazzle in a whole new set of stunning looks.

One user joked the Hulu’s ‘days were numbered’ after the livestream cut-off before the final award, while another announced they were ‘canceling’ their subscription because of it.

Director Sean Baker told the crowd after winning, ‘We made this movie for $6 million and shooting all on location in New York City with about 40 crew members.

‘They’re all back in New York. This is for you guys. Thank you so much. We made this movie independently.

‘If you’re trying to make independent films, keep doing it. We need more. This is proof.’

Mikey was up against Fernanda Torres, Demi Moore, Karla Sofia Gascon, and Cynthia Erivo.

And while some viewers were excited for Mikey, many of Demi’s fans were not happy that she lost, and took to X, formerly Twitter, to share their frustration.

Soon after the award was announced, the platform was flooded with posts about how Demi deserved it.

One user said she was ‘robbed’ and another called it the ‘biggest snub in Oscars history.’

Parks And Recreation star Nick Offerman, who was narrating the ceremony, introduced him once – then again when he failed to materialize the first time.

At that point Ben, 59, began to be lifted onto the stage from underneath with the help of an elevator, only for the machine to stall.

To gales of laughter from the audience, Ben stared out at them stony-faced, visible only from the chest up because of the supposedly malfunctioning lift.

Another win for Anora!

An Oscar winning director was heckled as he delivered an impassioned critique of Donald Trump’s foreign policy relating to the Israel-Palestine crisis during his acceptance speech on stage.

Basel Adra gripped the Oscar for Best Documentary for his film No Other Land, which captured the plight of Palestinians througout the ongoing war with Israel.

But as he slammed ‘this administration’s foreign policy’ for blocking the path to peace, a member of the crowd shouted ‘get rid of Hamas,’ according to a Vulture reporter who heard the interaction.

The actor beat out TImothee Chalamet, Colman Domingo, Ralph Fiennes, and Sebastian Stan, and marked the third win of the night for The Brutalist.

‘No matter where you are in your career, no matter what you’ve accomplished, it can all go away. And I think what makes this night so special is the awareness of that,’ he said during his acceptance speech.

Before he took to the stage, the actor left viewers disgusted when he was caught on camera taking a piece of gum out of his mouth and throwing it to his girlfriend.

‘When we’re talking about Black excellence, we’re talking about Quincy,’ Whoopi told the audience.

Queen Latifah then took to the stage to sing the song Ease on Down the Road from The Wiz.

The talk show host noticebly steered clear of politics during his opening monologue.

But later on in the evening he threw in a jab at the President, jokingly telling the audience, ‘Anora is having a good night. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.’

It came after Oscars presenter Daryl Hannah also made an off-script remark about Trump.

As she started out her segment, the actress said ‘Slava Ukraini.’ The phrase translates to ‘Glory to Ukraine.’

It comes following the startling exchange between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the Oval Office this week, over Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Many social media users even admitted that they were turning it off to watch White Lotus instead.

Do YOU think it’s been an eventful evening? Let us know in the comment section.

The Adrien Brody-lead film took home two awards during the ceremony.

Michelle tragically passed away at age 39 earlier this week, shortly after undergoing a liver transplant; her cause of death will never be known after her family declined an autopsy.

But many fans were left upset after they noticed that she was not included in the emotional In Memoriam segment during the Oscars.

A slew of stars were honored, and Gene Hackman even received an emotional tribute from Morgan Freeman.

Morgan Freeman at the 97th Oscars held at the Dolby Theatre

Days after the icon’s death aged 95, Morgan, 87, who starred alongside double Oscar winner Gene in Under Suspicion and Unforgiven, lauded his friend and co-star as he took to the stage.

Freeman said: ‘I had the pleasure of working with Gene Hackman on two films, Unforgiven and Under Suspicion.’

He added that he was a ‘generous performer’, and said he ‘won the hearts of film lovers around the world’.

Referencing Hackman saying that he wanted to do ‘good work’ in film, Freeman said:

You’ll be remembered for that, and so much more.

The In Memoriam segment then showed images of Dame Maggie Smith, Dame Joan Plowright, Donald Sutherland, Kris Kristofferson, Shelley Duvall, David Lynch, James Earl Jones, and Hackman among others.

The two actresses were in adjacent rows in the audience, and at one point they both stood up to give each other a peck on the cheek over the chairs.

Their brief exchange of pleasantries came off as so uncomfortable to fans that a joke about it has now become a runaway hit on X, formerly Twitter.

Firefighters who battled the devastating Pallisades fires received a standing ovation on stage the 2025 Oscars.

But when Captain Erik Scott made a joke about Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix-lead flick Joker 2, things turned slightly awkward.

‘Our hearts go out to all of those who have lost their homes. And I’m talking about the producers of Joker 2,’ he said.

Writers Clément Ducol, Camille and Jacques Audiard took to the stage to accept the award.

But when they suddenly started singing on stage, some people were unamused and called the moment ‘cringey.’

Doja Cat was slammed for her ‘terrible’ performance of iconic James Bond hit Diamonds Are Forever at the 2025 Oscars Sunday.

Fans were quite pleased upon hearing the iconic voice of none other than Parks and Recreation star Nick Offerman as the Oscar announcer.

Oscars host Conan left the audience stunned when he referenced the drama between Kendrick and Drake.

During the Super Bowl last month, Kendrick sensationally called his enemy Drake a ‘pedophile’ during one of his songs.

And during the ceremony this evening, Conan brought up the moment.

He joked, ‘We’re halfway through the show, so now’s the time for Kendrick Lamar to come out and call Drake a pedophile.’

Onstage at the SAG Awards , Kieran, 42, joked about how heavy the trophy was, quipping that ‘I don’t think there’s any way anyone can hold this for 45 seconds – which is the allotted time, Adrien Brody, 45 seconds.’

At the Academy Awards this evening, Robert took the stage to announce the best supporting actor nominees – and took a swipe at Kieran in the process.

‘I gotta locate the Culk – ah, hey, Kieran,’ Robert said. ‘Hey, man, you nailed it, right? Pretty much modelled the entire breadth and depth of human experience, we felt it. We felt A Real Pain. It was deep and messy. I can relate.’

Then he added: ‘If you’d simply ceased trying to be as witty as me when on an awards season roll, you’d be perfect. Just food for thought.’

Oscars presenter Daryl took a swipe at the President as she paid tribute to Ukraine on Sunday.

The Kill Bill star, 64, was there to present the best film editing award. As she started out her segment, the actress said ‘Slava Ukraine’, which means ‘Glory to Ukraine.’

It comes following the startling exchange between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the Oval Office this week, over Russia’s war in Ukraine.

It came after Wicked star Ariana Grande lost to Zoe Saldana for Best Supporting Actress.

Zoe won the award for Best Supporting Actress, but noticebly did not mention her costar Karla during her emotional acceptance speech.

She broke down in tears as she pointed out that she is the first American of Dominican origin to win an Oscar.

She shouted out various people, including her mom, dad, sisters, and husband.

And while she thanked her Emilia Perez ‘cast and crew,’ she failed to mention main star Karla, who is up for Best Actress.

The transgender actress was previously slammed after offensive and racially-charged tweets of hers resurfaced.

The iconic claymation duo lost out the Best Animated Feature gong in a shock result to little known Latvian film Flow – and fans were furious.

The film, which is also up for a slew of other awards including Best Picture, is on a bit of a roll as this marks its second award of the evening.

They paid tribute to James Bond, with LISA performing a cover of Live and Let Die and Doja singing Diamonds Are Forever. Raye then belted out Adele’s Skyfall.

During his acceptance speech, Anora writer, director, and producer Sean Baker thanked the ‘sex worker community.’

‘They have shared their stories. They have shared their life experience with me over the years. My deepest respect. I share this with you,’ he said.

The couple cozied up in the audience, sharing a tender moment as they wrapped their arms around one another.

The designer said in his acceptance speech: ‘I’m the first Black man to receive the costume design award. I’m so proud of this.’

The actor brought his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, as his date to this year’s Academy Awards, but some fans think it’ll cost him the Oscar thanks to the ‘Kardashian curse.’

Kylie previously explained the theory in an older episode of her show, saying: ‘The Kardashian curse is every male figure that comes and dates a Kardashian. Their life kind of just goes downhill after that.’

In addition, In the Shadow of the Cypress took home the award for Best Animated Short

He was awarded for his role in A Real Pain, and he beat out Yura Borisov, Edward Norton, Guy Pearce, and Jeremy Strong.

But things turned awkward when Edward appeared to curse after losing.

In the midst of Kieran’s acceptance speech, the camera cut to Edward in the audience who seemed to say the word ‘f**k.’

The sound then cut out in a bid to block out the alleged expletive, causing Kieran’s moment to be interrupted.

The host started the ceremony off with a bang, as a clip of him spoofing Demi’s film The Substance was played on screen.

He then delivered a lengthy monologue, during which he poked fun at Emilia Pérez star Karla Sofía Gascón’s controversy and took a swipe at Adam Sandler for dressing a little too casually.

He also bashed Timothee Chalamet’s outfit during his opening monologue, claiming his yellow suit would ensure ‘no bikes hit him.’

In refernce to Karla’s controversy, Conan said: ‘Anora uses the f-word 479 times. That’s more than the record set by Karla Sofía Gascón’s publicist…YOU TWEETED WHAT?’

‘Karla Sofia Gascon is here tonight. And… Karla, if you’re going to tweet about the Oscars, remember, my name is Jimmy Kimmel.’

The transgender star, who is nominated for Best Actress, was previously slammed after offensive and racially-charged tweets of hers resurfaced.

Conan’s opening segment was met with mixed reviews online, as some viewers loved it while others weren’t as pleased.

The transgender star, who is nominated for Best Actress, was slammed after offensive and racially-charged posts of hers resurfaced.

But she seemed unscathed by the backlash, appearing cool and collected in the audience of the Oscars.

Many of the musical’s die-hard fans were quick to notice that her gown contained a very special nod to the flick Wizard of Oz.

The red sparkling frock had a ruby slipper sewn into the back, which Dorothy famously wore throughout the beloved 1939 movie.

Ariana belted out a stunning cover of the Wizard of Oz song Somewhere Over the Rainbow, which was followed by Cynthia singing a beautiful rendition of the Diana Ross song Home.

The women then performed the song Defying Gravity from the hit movie Wicked.

Upon seeing the Black Widow star, 40, the Academy Award-winning Spanish actress, 50, warmly approached her former costar and tapped her shoulder.

After quickly turning around, Scarlet smiled as she saw Penelope, who held her hands as they shared a lively conversation at the star-studded event.

The former Vice President shut down speculation she was set to make a surprise guest appearance at Sunday night’s Oscars with a behind-the-scenes glimpse into her ‘watch party’ from home.

Some have branded the event as the ‘Ozempic Oscars’ thanks to the immense amount of A-listers who flaunted their small figures on the red carpet.

The actor – who ensured all eyes were on him in his mustard-colored ensemble – was alone as he walked the red carpet.

However, once he got inside, he was spotted sharing an intimate moment with his girlfriend, Kylie.

Zoe donned a maroon gown with a mesh chest area and a ruffled skirt, while Demi walked the carpet in a sparkling silver dress.

Selena was seen arriving in a diamond dress with off-the-shoulder straps, and Ana de Armas opted for a black gown with a silver haltered neck piece.

Margaret channeled Audrey Hepburn in her low-back black gown, which she paired with a pendant necklace worn backwards.

Snow White star Rachel wore a gray-white gown with crystal embellishments, opting for a very low cut look.

Whoopi, who previously revealed that she used the weight loss drug Mounjaro, looked incredibly thin in her extravagant blue gown.

She joins a list of stars who showed off their small physiques on the carpet, including Mindy Kaling and Ariana Grande.

Elle arrived in an elegant white gown, with a black ribbon bow around her waist. The movie star looked incredible in the lace gown, which included a striking cape.

As for Felicity, she donned a metallic silver dress with cutouts on her hips and a cute bow on her waiste.

Mindy flaunted her recent weight loss at the 2025 Oscars in a dazzling silver gown that contained a slew of leaf-like embelishments.
