The award of oscar always yields exciting and historic moments – but of course, lots of memes too. In the 2023 edition held this Sunday (12), it could not be different.
The most important ceremony in the film industry was attended by Lady Gaga wearing a basic look, bear the “white powder” on stage and dress so flashy that it overshadowed the vision. Check out the main memes of the 95th edition of the Oscars:
Lady Gaga’s “Basic Look”
One of the main features of the Oscars is the famous red carpet, where the main stars of world cinema parade in extravagant clothes that we, mere mortals, can only see from afar.
Well, the singer Lady Gaga drew attention by dressing in an “accessible” way during the performance of “Hold My Hand” of the movie “Top Gun: Maverick” .
The song competed for the prize of Best Original Song but was surpassed by “Naatu Naatu” from the Indian film “RRR”.

white dust bear
During the presentation of the Best Visual Effects won by “Avatar: The Way of Water” actress and director Elizabeth Banks had at least one alternative company.
Responsible for film direction “White Powder Bear” Banks was joined by the film’s protagonist, “Cocaine Bear”.
With a curious plot, the “White Powder Bear” is based on a true story that happened in the 80s, in the USA. On that occasion, a bear ended up ingesting a high amount of cocaine and became a threat to the local population.
The film opens on March 30, 2023.
During the entrance on stage, Banks even starred in a scene as hilarious as the story of her film: she tripped over her own dress and almost fell in front of millions of spectators.

obnoxious hugh grant
Apparently the seasoned actor, winner of the Golden Globe for best comedy actor for “Four Weddings and a Funeral”, was not in his best days on Sunday night.
That’s because Grant drew attention for his unsympathetic behavior during the Academy Awards. This became visible during an interview between the actor and model Ashley Graham.
During the chat, the actor responded to the model in a harsh and short way. Asked if he was looking forward to anyone winning an Oscar, he replies, “No, nobody.”
At another point, Ashley asked what Grant was wearing. He, without hesitation, fired: “just my suit”.
