The 97th Academy Awards kicked off in grand style, bringing together Hollywood’s brightest stars for an unforgettable evening of glitz, glamour, and celebration. Hosted by Conan O'Brien, who made his debut as the Oscars host, the night was filled with jaw-dropping moments that had viewers buzzing long after the ceremony began. From stunning red carpet arrivals to epic award wins, it was clear that this year’s Oscars would be a memorable one.
While the majority of the guests turned up in their finest designer gowns and sharp tuxedos, it was Adam Sandler who stole the spotlight with his casual yet iconic fashion choice.
Arriving in gym shorts and a blue sweatshirt, Sandler’s laid-back style was a far cry from the typical Hollywood red carpet attire.
As the audience reacted to his unconventional look, Conan O’Brien couldn’t help but call him out with a cheeky remark from the stage. “Adam, what are you wearing?” O’Brien asked, to which Sandler responded, “I’m dressed like a guy playing video poker at 2 a.m.” His comical answer had the audience in stitches, and his unexpected fashion statement quickly became one of the most talked-about moments of the night.
The fun didn’t stop there. Sandler, known for his humour and charm, made his way to actor Timothée Chalamet, where he surprised the audience with a heartfelt and unexpected embrace. The genuine, warm hug between the two actors left both the crowd and Chalamet himself amused, adding another layer of sweetness to the night.
Fans immediately took to social media, sharing their love for the wholesome interaction, with many considering it one of the evening's standout moments.
From Sandler's unforgettable attire to his adorable interaction with Chalamet, the 97th Academy Awards truly delivered moments that will be remembered for years to come.
