    Dame Helen Mirren is another star to take style inspiration from Killing Eve's Villanelle, with her bright pink dress.

    But in this particular pose, she also harks back to Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe in The Seven Year Itch.

    We're not sure how much the LA crowd really chow down at awards ceremonies - but we'd love to sit down and enjoy Wolfgang Puck's Oscars menu.

    The chef has been putting together the Oscars menu for 25 years and while there's always a few surprises, his signature dish of smoked salmon and caviar is bound to be included.

  6. Best documentary featurepublished at 01:19 Greenwich Mean Time 25 February 2019

    The winner is Free Solo! Not for the faint-hearted, this National Geographic film is about rock climber Alex Honnold's quest to ascend the world's most famous 3,200-foot rock, without a rope or harness.

  7. And the winner is....published at 01:13 Greenwich Mean Time 25 February 2019

    Regina King takes the gong for best supporting actress for If Beale Street Could Talk.

    She won the same award at the Independent Spirit awards yesterday.

    King described her win as "a little surreal". She said "James Baldwin birthed this baby" and added: "I'm an example of what it looks like when support and love is poured into someone."

  8. Funny womenpublished at 01:10 Greenwich Mean Time 25 February 2019

    Three of the funniest women in Hollywood - Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph and Amy Poehler - are the first award presenters, for best supporting actress.

    Poehler and Tina Fey hosted the Golden Globes in 2013, 2014 and 2015

    Fey threw some shade at the failed Fyre festival: "Hey everybody, look under your seats. you're all getting one of those cheese sandwiches from the Fyre festival!"

    You might already be an Oscar-winning film director who's also up for several awards tonight for Mexican film Roma. But - presuming he's pictured here with two of his kids - you can still be an embarrassing dad even when you're that famous. Just check out that eye roll.

    Lady Gaga's dress was far less dramatic than her previous red carpet outings (like the infamous meat dress she wore to the MTV awards in 2010).

    But style spotters have been getting excited about the necklace the A Star is Born actress is wearing, which was previously worn by Hollywood royalty.

    We Will, We Will Open The Show Since You Guys Don't Have A Host.

    And we're off.

    The atmosphere in the Dolby Theatre is electric as the Academy Awards officially get under way.

    Emma Stone, Lady Gaga, Sam Rockwell and many more are seen rocking out as singer Adam Lambert takes to the stage with Brian May and Roger Taylor to perform two massive Queen hits.

    The group rattle through We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions.

    "Welcome to the Oscars!" shouts Adam Lambert from the stage.

    Here we go!...

    Come on, it's Los Angeles, it can't be that cold, even in February!

    If Mahershala Ali replicates his Baftas success and picks up the best supporting actor prize for Green Book, maybe he'll whip it off and throw it out to the audience.

    It could be a good night for the Brits with Olivia Colman representing the UK in the best actress category.

    The Crown star is up for best actress for playing Queen Anne in The Favourite.

    British actress Rachel Weisz is up for best supporting actress for costume drama The Favourite.

    Weisz chose an equally dramatic red dress with PVC elements for the ceremony.

    Fun fact - it's 13 years since Weisz won the same award for The Constant Gardener.

    Another star forgoing a traditional Oscars outfit is Melissa McCarthy.

    She's swapped her gown for a black and white jumpsuit, complete with cape.

    Could the best actress nominee be making a not-so-subtle attempt to win her own superhero franchise? We can only hope so...
