Everything Everywhere All at Once has dominated the 95th Academy Awards, held on Sunday night at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre.

Michelle Yeoh took home the Best Actress award, becoming the first Asian woman and only second woman of colour to win the trophy. The film also won Best Picture, and Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for writer/directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert.

Brendan Fraser cemented his comeback with a Best Actor win for The Whale, while Everything Everywhere stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Ke Huy Quan picked up Best Supporting Actress and Best Supporting Actor, respectively.

Other winners included Women Talking for Best Adapted Screenplay,The Whale for Best Makeup and Hairstyling and Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio for Best Animated Feature. The night was not without controversy, with criticism aimed at Jimmy Kimmel’s interview with Malala and a painful encounter between model Ashley Graham and an “obnoxious” Hugh Grant.

Angela Bassett was “snubbed” at the Oscars following a surprise win for Jamie Lee Curtis in the Best Supporting Actress category.

During the 2023 ceremony, Everything Everywhere All at Once actor Lee Curtis took home the award for Best Supporting Actress, which drew gasps from the crowd due to the fact Bassett was considered the frontrunner.

In fact, Curtis was the third favourite behind Bassett and Banshees of Inisherin star Kerry Condon, who won the Bafta for Best Supporting Actress earlier this month.

One of ABC’s red carpet presenters had a moment to forget with Kate Hudson ahead of the 2023 Oscars ceremony.

Hudson stars in the Oscar-nominated film Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, but was not nominated for her acting.

07:50 , Roisin O'Connor

He might be a Best Actor winner, but Brendan Fraser still has his feet on the ground, thanks in no small part to his sons, who made a wonderful appearance with their dad at the 2023 Oscars.

Interviewed on the “red” carpet, Fraser’s sons Holden Fletcher Fraser, 18, and Leland Francis Fraser, 16, whom he shares with ex-wife Afton Smith, offered some insights into life at home, including The Whale star’s penchant for dad jokes.

Jimmy Kimmel mocks audience reaction to Will Smith Oscars slap

07:10 , Roisin O'Connor

If you were wondering how the now-infamous incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock might be addressed at this year’s Oscars, your questions have been answered.

Jimmy Kimmel appeared to call out the Academy and the audience’s response to Smith slapping Rock during the comedian’s Oscars 2023 opening monologue.

The host addressed the controversial moment that saw Smith hit comedian Chris Rock on stage after he made a joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.

At the end of his opening monologue, Kimmel said: “We want you to feel safe – and, most importantly, we want me to feel safe, so we have strict policies in place: if anyone in this theatre commits an act of violence at any point, you will be awarded the Oscar for Best Actor and permitted to give a 19-minute long speech.”

A blink-and-you-could-have-missed-it tribute to Angela Bassett from Michael B Jordan and Jonathan Majors shortly after the actor lost her category to Jamie Lee Curtis. Curtis’s win seems to be the most contentious of the night, with Bassett praised for her “real” reaction to the outcome...

Nigerian singer Tems, a nominee for co-writing Rihanna’s “Lift Me Up”, sparked minor controversy (and jokes) tonight as people noticed her otherwise sensational outfit...

And in a little bit of late-night heartbreak, Vulture is reporting that the Banshees of Inisherin donkey brought on stage by Jimmy Kimmel during the ceremony was not Jenny the Donkey from the film but an impostor! “It was just a random donkey,” an unverified source told the publication. For shame!

A nice moment from one of the Daniels’ many speeches tonight involved Everything Everywhere co-director Daniel Scheinert calling out the protests and hysteria around drag.

One of the funniest gags from tonight’s ceremony was Jimmy Kimmel reigniting his comic feud with Matt Damon, after asking Jessica Chastain whether it was tricky working with him on The Martian as he “smells like dog medicine”.

04:13 , Adam White

Many are asking about a number of major stars left out of the ceremony’s In Memoriam segment, including Paul Sorvino, Anne Heche, Philip Baker Hall, David Warner and Charlbi Dean, who was the female lead of Best Picture nominee Triangle of Sadness.

04:03 , Adam White

And another extraordinary statistic courtesy of writer and awards specialist Erik Anderson: tonight’s Oscars marks the first time one studio has won all four acting categories, and that studio is relative new kid on the block A24.

04:00 , Adam White

And a quite extraordinary statistic from New York Times critic Kyle Buchanan: Everything Everywhere All at Once is now the film with the most above-the-line wins (meaning the biggest categories) in Oscar history. That’s more than The Silence of the Lambs, It Happened One Night and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, all of which won five above-the-line awards.

03:56 , Adam White

While it’s understandably been overshadowed by the wins for Everything Everywhere, All Quiet on the Western Front took home four trophies tonight. That also makes it Netflix’s most successful film at the Oscars.

03:50 , Adam White

So as the dust settles on the evening, Tom Murray has gathered together Jimmy Kimmel’s seven best zingers from the night, including his cracks at Babylon’s box office gross and the Will Smith slap row from last year.

This was quite an extraordinary evening in terms of total shut-outs, with Tár, Elvis, The Banshees of Inisherin and The Fabelmans, all of which were widely embraced and received multiple nominations, entirely missing out on wins.

03:35 , Adam White

And here is the final tally for this evening...

Everything Everywhere All at Once 7

All Quiet on the Western Front 4

The Whale 2

Avatar: The Way of Water 1

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 1

The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse 1

The Elephant Whisperers 1

Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio 1

An Irish Goodbye 1

03:33 , Adam White

“This is history in the making,” Yeoh says at the end of her brilliant speech.

03:22 , Adam White

And Best Actor goes to... Brendan Fraser for The Whale !!

03:20 , Adam White

If Michelle Yeoh wins tonight, it’ll be Halle Berry handing her the Oscar. Berry, famously, is the only woman of colour to win the Best Actress Oscar... potentially until tonight.

03:19 , Adam White

This is an exciting next two categories. First up is Best Actor, which could go to Brendan Fraser or Austin Butler. Then Best Actress, which has been neck-and-neck between Michelle Yeoh and Cate Blanchett all awards season, but seems to be going Yeoh’s way tonight.

03:12 , Adam White

This is quite a spectacular sweep for Everything Everywhere All at Once, with almost every other contender struggling to win a single award tonight. Of the three categories left to announce, only Best Actor is Everything Everywhere-less. Surely Michelle Yeoh is taking Best Actress now?

03:11 , Adam White

And Best Director goes to... the Daniels for Everything Everywhere All at Once!

03:10 , Adam White

Idris Elba and Nicole Kidman next, announcing the award for Best Director. The Daniels have this in the bag, surely?

03:07 , Adam White

And the winner of Best Film Editing is... Everything Everywhere All at Once!

03:06 , Adam White

We are very close to the end now, with Best Editing up next, then Director, Actor, Actress and Best Picture.

On a lighter note, you may have missed Colin Farrell calling out Saturday Night Live earlier tonight, after their controversial Irish stereotype skit this weekend

“Andie’s been wearing moisturiser every day for 29 years – I have not,” Grant jokes. “[She’s] still stunning. [I’m] basically a scrotum.”

02:05 , Adam White

We’re also two hours into this Oscars, and it’s... a little dry, right? Kimmel has been middling, the on-stage banter hasn’t exactly sparkled. Is everyone on their good behaviour a bit too much?

While the show has cut to commercials, here’s how the awards tally is looking so far...
