America Ferrera
America Ferrera, nominated for Best Supporting Actress for ‘Barbie,’ showed up in a glittery pink chain-mail gown befitting the doll herself. The film is nominated for eight awards tonight, and we’re hoping that Ferrera can clinch this one for her role as Gloria.
Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper is no stranger to the Oscars — but while he’s now been nominated a total of 12 times, he’s never won. He’s nominated this year for starring in, directing, and producing the Leonard Bernstein biopic ‘Maestro,’ which is up for seven awards.
Margot Robbie
Hi Barbie! Robbie arrived on the red carpet in a black strapless dress, a stark contrast from the Barbie pink looks she’s worn throughout the awards season. Although snubbed in the lead actress category, ‘Barbie’ is up for eight nominations including Best Picture.
Ryan Gosling
On the Oscars red carpet, he’s not just Ken. Gosling, dressed in all-black suit, is a three-time Oscar nominated actor and is up for Best Supporting Actor for ‘Barbie.’ We’re beginning to believe Barbie and Ken went for matching outfits at this awards show.
Issa Rae
This president Barbie strayed from pastel pink on the Oscars carpet, and dazzled in a deep green gown with a deep v-neck. Although she’s not one of the nominees, we’re all rooting for the ‘Insecure’ writer and star!
Emma Stone
Honestly, I think the Frankenstein-like Bella Baxter would wear this Louis Vuitton dress too. This isn’t Stone’s first rodeo, as she won Best Actress for ‘La La Land’ and is now nominated for Best Actress in the dramedy ‘Poor Things.’ Stone admits the movie is a wild ride, but cherished playing the sexually liberated character. “She was so free, and so joyful,” she says.
Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish has suited up this awards season and appeared in a tweed skirt and matching Chanel bag, beside her brother and writing partner Finneas O’Connell. The duo is nominated for their heart-wrenching Barbie tune “What Was I Made For,” and plans to perform the song during the awards show.
Jamie Lee Curtis
The legendary actress isn’t nominated this year, but arrived looking glamorous in a long-sleeved black gown and a golden cuff. She won Best Supporting Actress last year for her role in ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once,’ and this year will be on stage to present.
Sterling K. Brown
“I feel like I’m on cloud nine,” Brown told Laverne Cox on the red carpet of his nomination for best actor in ‘American Fiction.’ It’s the first nomination for the actor, who became a household name playing Randall in ‘This Is Us.’
Cillian Murphy
The Irish actor is this year’s favorite for Best Actor for his portrayal as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the nuclear bomb. His riveting performance helped nab the picture a total of 13 nominations.
Hailee Steinfeld
Hailee Steinfeld looks heavenly in an ethereal Elie Saab gown. The actress voices Gwen in the Oscar-nominated animated film ‘Spider Man: Across the Spider-Verse.’
Colman Domingo
He’s already made Oscars history — being the first Afro-Latino to be nominated for best actor, for his role in the Netflix film ‘Rustin’ — and the longtime actor looks right at home on the red carpet in a sleek black double-breasted tux. He’s thrilled to be nominated, but told Lavenre Cox that he sees his work in Hollywood as opening up spaces that might not have existed before. “Advocate and own your power,” he said.
Cynthia Erivo
Cynthia Erivo stunned on the carpet in a green leather dress with dramatic sleeves and a ruffled train — which isn’t surprising for the British star of stage and screen, who was nominated in 2020 for Best Actress and Best Original Song for ‘Harriet.’
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been a style icon for decades (black turtleneck and fanny pack, anyone?) but he truly outdid himself in a tight silver suit with a low-cut draped shirt, arriving as a presenter. On the carpet, he gushed about the films that were nominated this year, calling out the Barbenheimer phenomenon as something that shook up the industry.
Anya Taylor-Joy
Are they feathers? Are they crystals? Is it all of the above? Whatever it is, Anya Taylor-Joy shines in the detailed gown. Taylor-Joy is more than the chess prodigy in ‘The Queen’s Gambit,’ with a surprise cameo in ‘Dune: Part Two,’ beside Timothee Chalamet.
Emily Blunt and John Krasinski
Nominated for her role as Kitty in ‘Oppenheimer,’ Blunt appeared on the red carpet in a shimmering gown with her husband John Krasinski. This marks Blunt’s first Oscar nomination, and is up against the likes of Lily Gladstone and Emma Stone.
Lupita Nyong’o
Lupita Nyong’o isn’t nominated this year, but the actress — who won for her role in ‘Twelve Years a Slave’ in 2014 — looked every bit Old Hollywood in a sparkling pale blue gown with feather accents.
Lily Gladstone
Gladstone’s already made history as the first Native American actress nominated by the Academy, and we’ll find out tonight if she goes even further and brings it home. But either way, she already won the red carpet in this black and blue velvet gown.
Paul Giamatti
Paul Giamatti has been a staple in Hollywood for decades, but hasn’t yet taken home the industry’s most coveted gold statue. That could change tonight, as he’s up for Best Actor for his role in ‘The Holdovers’ — just one of five nominations the film could bring home.
Jodie Foster
The actress was nominated for her first Oscar in 1977 (she won for ‘The Accused’ in 1989 and ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ in 1992) and is up again this year for her role in ‘Nyad.’ Her long blue satin gown shimmered as she walked the carpet.
Sandra Hüller
Hüller is an actress to watch: She’s featured in two Oscar-nominated best pictures, ‘Zone of Interest’ and ‘Anatomy of a Fall,’ and has a nomination for Best Actress for the latter. Dressed in a black gown, with a tuxedo-tie neckline, the actress was candid about a potential Oscar-winning speech: “I have nothing prepared.”
Zendaya
Zendaya trades her ‘Dune’ sand-resistant scrubs for an elegant, single-strapped gown on the Oscars red carpet. It’s a tame look for the actress, who has worn everything from an internet-breaking Mugler metal suit to matching leather jumpsuits with Timothee Chalamet during the ‘Dune’ press tour.
Ariana Grande
Nothing is sweeter than a reunion on the red carpet. Grande, dressed in a cotton-candy pink gown, fangirled over the Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh (‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’) squealing mid-interview, “I love you!” Fresh off her ‘Eternal Sunshine’ album release, Grande took to the Oscars pre-show to discuss “Wicked,” set to release this November.
Florence Pugh
Florence Pugh was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in ‘Little Women’ in 2020, but graced the red carpet in a pale silver and pink corseted gown. Though she’s not up for any awards herself, she appeared opposite Cillian Murphy in ‘Oppenheimer,’ which is up for 13 Oscars — the most of any film this year.
Becky G
One word: Breathtaking. Becky G stuns on the Oscar red carpet in nude-colored corset and velvet skirt. Following the Oscar nomination announcement for ‘Flamin Hot’ song “The Fire Inside,” the Inglewood-born singer got emotional in an Instagram post, “This is literally one of my dreams coming true in front of the world.” On the carpet, she gave thanks to ‘Flamin Hot’ director Eva Longoria and composer Diane Warren.
Danielle Brooks
Danielle Brooks is all smiles at the Oscars. Her Oscar nomination bumped her up to EGOT nominee (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) status and told Rolling Stone last month about her excitement, “If I could do a backflip into a somersault I would.” She’s the lone Oscar nominee for ‘The Color Purple,’ the Alice Walker and Broadway musical adapted revival, and embraced the words of the film’s protagonist on the carpet, “Like Ceilie says, ‘I’m here.’”
Vanessa Hudgens
Hudgens entered the red carpet with a big announcement: she’s got a baby on the way! The actress wore a long black, turtleneck gown adorned with a jeweled necklace, and wasn’t shy about showing off her baby bump. This marks the ‘High School Musical’ alum’s first child, with husband Cole Tucker.
Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade
Dwyane Wade may have been a producer on the Oscar-nominated documentary ‘The Barber of Little Rock,’ but it was his wife Gabrielle Union who stole the show on the carpet in a glittering Carolina Herrera gown and Tiffany necklace.
