Rumors have emerged about Brad Pitt and Andra Day after a source spotted the pair flirting backstage at the Academy Awards. Day was nominated for Best Actress, while Pitt was a presenter at the event. The two reportedly exchanged numbers but it isn't clear whether that was for professional or personal reasons.
A journalist who mixed up two Black actors at the 93rd annual Academy Awards is offering an explanation after she was obliterated online. South African journalist Margaret Gardiner outed herself Monday as the reporter and member of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association who confused Daniel Kaluuya for Leslie Odom Jr. in the Academy Awards press room. A viral clip of the incident shows Daniel clutching his Best Supporting Actor Oscar and looking confused as Gardiner asks him “What it meant for [him] to be directed by Regina [King]." Regina of course directed "One Night In Miami" starring Leslie who was also up for Best Supporting Actor.
The end of this year's awards season left much to be desired--especially when it comes to honoring someone as special as the late Chadwick Boseman.
Last night's Academy Awards were booming with colorful couture moments and a number of Black celebrities were standouts. Naturally, Regina King KILLED the carpet courtesy of her styling team Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald of Wayman + Micah who outfitted her in custom Louis Vuitton and Larry Sims who styled her hair in a chic bob.
