Held last night in Santa Monica, the ceremony marked the official start of what\u2019s already shaping up to be a chaotic awards season.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1107\" data-end=\"1400\">On paper, it was a huge night for the films. One Battle After Another took home best picture and best director, while Sinners and Frankenstein dominated the film categories with four wins each. But let\u2019s be honest, we care far more about those viral moments.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1894\" data-end=\"2436\">Hacks actors Megan Stalter and Paul W. Downs won the red carpet<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_564842\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-564842\" style=\"width: 1908px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1963\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-16.37.31.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1908\" height=\"1250\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-564842\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Shutterstock\/John Salangsang<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-start=\"1402\" data-end=\"1892\">First up: Hacks co-stars Megan Stalter and Paul W. Downs absolutely stealing the red carpet. The pair turned up dressed as pitch-perfect replicas of Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet and Kylie Jenner\u2019s viral orange Chrome Hearts looks from the Marty Supreme premiere.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1402\" data-end=\"1892\">Downs went full Timmy in a blazing leather suit, while Stalter embodied Kylie with dramatic cutouts, pouting poses and even choreographing Downs\u2019 hand placement. The commitment? Unmatched. The ping pong paddle accessory? Genuis.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1402\" data-end=\"1892\">There was\u00a0chaos with a ping pong paddle<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_564840\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-564840\" style=\"width: 1638px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1966\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Screenshot-2026-01-05-at-16.36.08.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1638\" height=\"1054\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-564840\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: E!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-start=\"1894\" data-end=\"2436\">That paddle became a recurring theme thanks to host Chelsea Handler, who returned for her fourth year, While joking about Chalamet\u2019s ping pong-heavy role in Marty Supreme, she announced that someone in the audience had a paddle under their seat, and whoever found it got to spank him at the afterparty.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1894\" data-end=\"2436\">Enter Kathy Bates. Cameras caught her licking the paddle in her seat before immediately regretting it, mouthing, \u201cThat\u2019s so gross,\u201d as the room erupted. A deeply cursed moment.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1894\" data-end=\"2436\">Owen Cooper gave the night&#8217;s sweetest speech<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Owen Cooper\u2019s acceptance speech at the Emmys<br \/>\nBest supporting actor in &#8220;Adolescence&#8221;, a Netflix drama series.<\/p>\n<p>He is the youngest male actor to win the the award at age 15. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Emmys2025?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Emmys2025<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/yDcnFeuUmx\">pic.twitter.com\/yDcnFeuUmx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Apple Tree (@LonelyAppleTree) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LonelyAppleTree\/status\/1967612279106818500?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 15, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2438\" data-end=\"2873\">There were sweeter moments too. Adolescence actor Owen Cooper made history as the youngest-ever winner of best supporting actor in a series at just 16. His speech was sincere, emotional and refreshingly un-polished.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2438\" data-end=\"2873\">Miles Caton, winning Best Young Actor for Sinners, was similarly heartfelt, even if everyone at home felt a wave of anxiety watching him clutch his phone onstage.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2438\" data-end=\"2873\">Jessie Buckley reminded everyone she\u2019s married to Paul Mescal (on screen)<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">this was super sweet.
