Award Shows

Despite being awarded a historic 16 nominations, "Sinners" lost the Best Picture Oscar to "One Battle After Another."

The win prompted Teyana Taylor to almost tackle director, Paul Thomas Anderson, as he headed to the stage to collect a statuette -- his third on the night after being named Best Director and winning for Best Adapted Screenplay.

The Best Picture win was the 6th of the night for "One Battle After Another" ... which nabbed a record 13 nominations back in January.

The 2026 Oscars were one to remember ... but we have all the moments you may have missed during the epic telecast.

Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner cozied up to each other as they waited to hear if Chalamet's name would be called in the Best Actor category for his performance in "Marty Supreme."

And host Conan O'Brien opened with a bang, recreating the famous ending from "Weapons" live at the Dolby Theatre.

Rachel McAdams had everyone choked up at the Oscars. There wasn't a dry eye in the house after she honored her late friend Diane Keaton in the award show's In Memoriam segment.

Rachel told the audience, "Believe me when I say there isn't an actress of my generation who is not inspired by and enthralled with her absolute singularity."

She added ... “She wore so many hats, literally and figuratively, actress, artist, author, activist, but no hat more important to her than being a mother to her two children. She meant so much to so many of us. I remember she used to sing this old Girl Scout song she used to sing on set, which is just so her: ‘Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, and the other is gold. A circle is round, it has no end. That’s how long I’ll be your friend.’ And so to our friend, Diane Keaton, celebrating a life in silver and gold, a legend with no end."

Billy Crystal commemorated his good friend and "When Harry Met Sally" director Rob Reiner at the Oscars in a tearjerking tribute to the late Oscar nominee and his wife Michele.

After going through all of Rob's beloved films, Billy said, "To the millions who have enjoyed his films for all these years, I want you to know how many times Rob told me that it meant everything to him that his work meant something to you."

Billy was later joined on stage by some of Rob's most notable collaborators ... Christopher Guest, Jerry O'Connell, Michael McKean, Fred Savage and more linked hands as they honored their great friend.

Hollywood's biggest stars collided with their biggest fans on the town's biggest night ... and we have the pics!

From Shaboozey to Nicole Kidman, fans got some incredible selfies outside of the Dolby Theatre ahead of the 2026 Oscars.

Timothée Chalamet wore shades while throwing up a peace sign, while making this lucky fan's day.

Conan O'Brien warned that the Oscars could get political ... and he wasn't lying! The Academy Awards host took a shot at the entire country with a vicious zinger during Sunday's telecast.

After highlighting that this is the first time in 14 years that Britain has no performers nominated for Best Actor or Best Actress ... Conan pointed out that there is one thing they seem to have over the U.S.

Conan joked, "A British spokesperson said, 'Yeah, well at least we arrest our pedophiles.'"

Oscars host Conan O'Brien came out swinging in his opening monologue, going right after Netflix honcho Ted Sarandos!

In a hilarious barb, Conan kidded that this marked Ted's first time in a theater. And it's a good thing Ted seems to have a sense of humor about himself, because it didn't stop there!

Conan dove into a whole act-out envisioning Ted in an outrage of there being so many people at the Dolby Theatre for the Oscars and not at home streaming Netflix.

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra nearly had a wipeout before even hitting the red carpet at the Oscars ... after their golf cart ride to the entrance got a little too wild.

We're told the couple's Sprinter van didn't get clearance to drive all the way through the security perimeter near the Dolby Theatre Sunday ... forcing organizers to hustle them the rest of the way in a golf cart.

TMZ obtained video showing the cart moving fast as staff rushed Nick and Priyanka toward the carpet to keep them on schedule. When the driver made a sharp turn with a quick burst of acceleration, the vehicle rocked so hard one of the wheels actually lifts off the ground, nearly tipping over.

Nick and Priyanka held on as the cart swerved its way up toward the theater ... thankfully the driver managed to keep all four wheels down.

It's hot in Los Angeles and the 2026 Oscars red carpet is even hotter ... the stars brought their absolute best to Hollywood's biggest night, and we've collected all the best looks for you to see in one place!

Mother-daughter duo Kate Hudson and Goldie Hawn got in some quality time together on the carpet.

The two movie stars dazzled in sparkly numbers as they embraced outside of the Dolby Theatre.

Tom Hanks' son, Chet Hanks, is back in town after his Colombia travel drama ... and he wasted no time hitting the Hollywood party scene with his mom, Rita Wilson.

The actor and model stepped out with his mom at the CAA pre-Oscars party in L.A. Saturday night, just weeks after claiming he was stuck in Colombia.

Photos show Chet arriving behind Rita as they headed into the exclusive party. He kept things sharp for the occasion, rocking an all-black suit.

Paul Anthony Kelly -- who plays John F. Kennedy Jr. in FX's limited series "Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette" -- looked like he was having a great time during Oscars weekend.

TMZ obtained video showing Kelly dancing at the Giorgio Armani pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles Saturday night.

In the video, Kelly is seen on a balcony area of the venue, moving to the music and chatting with people nearby as the star-studded event unfolds below.

Oh, The Oscars -- where Hollywood glam and chaos are at their peak ... where young Hollywood stars shine -- and sometimes stumble -- and where unforgettable moments are made, shared, and endlessly replayed.

We scoured the web -- and our in-house pros weighed in, too ...

Kate Hudson's looks over the years are ALMOST FAMOUS!

Here is a 21-year-old version of the young Hollywood starlet at the premiere of "Almost Famous" back in 2001 (left). Playing "Penny Lane" was totes her breakout role ... and propelled her to big movies like "How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days" and "Raising Helen."

And, more than two decades later, the 46-year-old hot mama still turns heads ... most recently at the 32nd Annual Actor Awards earlier this month (right).

Kate is up for her first Oscar since her 2001 nomination for "Almost Famous!" Will her performance in "Song Sung Blue" be enough to snag it 🏆?!

The question here is: Good Genes or Good Docs?!

Hidden behind these sexy shots is a first-time Oscar nominee -- can you guess who she is?!

One of her biggest claims to fame was starring in Ye's "Fade" music video. Her body is on another level -- strength training and dancing are her secrets! Tonight's Oscar nomination is for "One Battle After Another."

The stars poured into CAA's pre-Oscars party at Living Room in Los Angeles Friday night ... including "Heated Rivalry" stars Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams, who smiled wide at the camera while posing cheek-to-cheek.

MIA was their costar, François Arnaud ... who, as you know, is rumored to be dating Connor.

We saw Connor and François last month, getting close and enjoying dinner at the Smoke House in Burbank, CA, but still ... no confirmation that they're the real thing.

Other than the 'Rivalry' stars, Jon Hamm made the pre-Oscars shindig a date night with wife Anna Osceola, while Rita Wilson went solo ... with no Tom Hanks in sight.

In honor of Conan O'Brien taking the Oscars stage this weekend, put your detective skills to the test and see if you can put your finger on the switch-ups!

Here is Conan during last year's Oscars -- looking snazzy in a bowtie -- while crowd-pleasing to millions ...

Now it's on you to grab the changes and throw 'em out the window!
