After much struggle trying to reach various stars, I was finally able to meet Keanu Reeves at a charity event hosted by the Keanu Reeves Foundation. I feel immensely fulfilled to have had a personal and private moment with him at last.

[@sevilaycandemir5205]

Oh, wow, I can't believe this. I've been trying to meet him for over two years now. All I've encountered are a lot of individuals impersonating him, and I have nothing to show for it.

When I saw Halle Berry present this award, I knew Michelle would be the winner. Michelle made history and became the first Asian actress and the second actress with colour(after Halle Berry) to win the Academy Award for best actress. It was just her first nomination. She won the SAG Award, which led to the momentum. Although I thought Cate Blanchett’s performance in Tar was brilliant, I was delighted that Michelle realised her dream at the age of 61.

[@leonardopeper7052]

When Halle Berry appeared, EVERYBODY knew Michelle would be the winner. And it was one of the only three deserved Oscars that the movie won - just as the awards for supporting actor (Ke Huy Quan) and film editing.

The trio is truly truly amazing and unforgettable. They all left such profound impact even after the credit rolls. If Stephanie would've won, it would be legendary. The whole Wang family all win cannonly.

[@davy209]

That’s one of the biggest reasons why I love Michelle’s Oscar win for EEAAO because her role not the quintessential, cringey, “please give me an Oscar” bait type roles. I love it when non-Oscar bait roles, or roles from genre films get nominated or win at the Oscars: Like Natalie Portman for “Black Swan”, Daniel Kaluuya for “Get Out”, and Robert Downey Jr. for “Tropic Thunder”.

seeing at it, mo lei tau alone is technically mixed sub-genre of comedy dating with chinese acrobatic opera etc 👀

[@richardlugali2690]

Michelle Yeoh was always one of the most underrated actresses. Her energy and passion are remarkable in every role she plays and what she does in her character of Evelyn in Everything Everywhere is something truly memorable. Not just anyone at her age can play a role where she cries, makes you laugh, fights, choreographs everything, etc. Her work is truly admirable and I couldn't be happier that recognition was finally given to this legend.

[@messedupguy9648]

She wasn't versatile at all. And the only reason why she won is because of politics, as people knew that her as the "first Asian" to win will be an event.

Andrea Riseborough got such shit for getting nominated, but honestly I finally ended up watching "To Leslie" and... She's absolutely fantastic in it! I can totally see why she got in ( she was never gonna win, but absolutely deserved a seat at the table this year ). Honestly the weakest nomination in that category to me was Ana De Armas for Blonde. Williams was excellent but she should have tried for supporting instead ( now she's lost another Oscar race again ). But I totally get Riseborough now... Still though this was always Yeoh vs Blanchett and everyone else was just there for vacation. Yeoh was 100% the right winner, any other year I would have no issue with Blanchett winning for Tar. Hell if Tar came out in 2024 she'd likely win period. But Yeoh had to win this one...
