17 Of The Most Unforgettable Celebrity Reactions During The 2024 Oscars

Celebrities — they're fangirls, just like us. One of my absolute favorite parts of awards season is watching celebs on the audience cam react to everything from a sweet, heartfelt acceptance speech to some truly cringe-worthy comments. Here are 17 of the most iconic, unforgettable celeb reactions I noticed last night:

1.When host Jimmy Kimmel started off the ceremony by poking fun at him not getting a standing ovation from the audience:

2.When Robert Downey Jr. politely suggested Jimmy move on from his rather distasteful jokes about RDJ's past...and Jimmy was not getting the hint:

3.Emily Blunt's reaction to her husband, John Krasinski, squeezing her hand while Mary Steenburgen spoke about Emily's Oppenheimer character:

4. And, in turn, John being absolutely in awe of Emily on the Oscars red carpet:

5.Martin Scorsese's absolute delight while watching Ryan Gosling's "I'm Just Ken" performance, as captured by his daughter, Francesca:

6.Danielle Brooks's tearful — and, honestly, relatable — response to Regina King's praise:

7.Paul Giamatti's wholesome reaction to his costar Da'Vine Joy Randolph winning Best Supporting Actress:

8. Emma Stone's response to Jimmy Kimmel's joke about Poor Things' sex scenes, which seemingly is to call Jimmy "a prick":

In case you missed it, Jimmy said, "Those were all the parts of Poor Things that we’re allowed to show on TV," after a snippet of the film was played for the audience. The joke was in reference to the film's nudity and explicit scenes. Emma has been outspoken about the scenes, and that they are only one part of the whole story.

9.Margot Robbie's reaction to John Cena presenting the Oscar for Costume Design completely nude:

10. Ariana Grande fangirling over her Wicked costar Michelle Yeoh on the red carpet:

11.Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie's unabashed, enthusiastic singing of "I'm Just Ken" alongside Ryan Gosling:

Get you friends that support you the same way Greta and Margot support Ryan!

12.And, of course, Emma Stone getting sooo into the song, she claims she literally ripped the back of her dress open (and had to be sewn back in):

13. When this lil cutie — aka The Last Repair Shop's Porché Brinker — had her moment and walked down the Oscar steps like a goddamn princess:
