There were some more unusual moments beyond the award announcements at last night's Oscars, here's a quick look at what you might have missed:

• John Cena shuffled on stage and presented an Academy Award category for best costume design while naked
• Acting legend Al Pacino also had people sitting up in their chairs as he hesitated before announcing Oppenheimer as the best picture winner - and then uttered his announcement so casually
• Messi the dog, a border collie who plays Snoop in a French courtroom drama appeared at the Los Angeles ceremony, sitting in a plush red seat with a black bow-tie around his neck
• Billie Eilish, Mark Ruffalo and Ramy Youssef sported red pins in support of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas
• Avi Arad, CEO of Marvel Studios, wore a yellow ribbon pin showing solidarity with hostages who are still being held in captivity by Hamas since the 7 October 2023 attack on Israel
• Host Jimmy Kimmel made a return to the Dolby Theatre for his fourth time hosting the Oscars - one of his jokes aimed at Donald Trump quipped: "Isn't it past your jail time?"

We've been keeping an eye on the Vanity Fair red carpet, which is now winding down after a jam-packed few hours of celeb arrivals for the magazine's annual Oscars after-party.

Here's a look at some famous faces we spotted:

In case you missed it - one of the stand out moments of the night was Ryan Gosling performing a rendition of I'm Just Ken.

It began with the Barbie star serenading Margot Robbie and ended with a full-blown sing-along with director Greta Gerwig and co-star America Ferrera.

In between all that Gosling donned a bright pink suit covered in sparkling rhinestones with gloves to match.

He performed with Mark Ronson and was then joined onstage by several actors who played Ken in Gerwig's film, including Ncuti Gatwa, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, as well as a host of dancers in Stetsons.

Gosling even sang next to rock legend Slash, which you can watch below:

Most of the winners at this year's Oscars have been predictable for some time.

For months, the sense in Hollywood - and wider - has been that 2024 is Christopher Nolan’s year.

Oppenheimer’s seven awards don’t break records - but the film did win many of the major categories: best picture, best director, best actor, best supporting actor.

Poor Things - the original, Frankenstein-style tale - stopped Nolan’s film having an even better night.

With production design, costume, make up and hairstyling wins for the predominantly British talent behind the camera, the UK government couldn’t have wished for a better advert for British creativity.

And Emma Stone (and a malfunctioning dress) picked up best actress.

If Killers of the Flower Moon’s Lily Gladstone had won that category instead, history would have been made. She could have been the first native American to win an acting Oscar. It wasn’t to be.

But there were other firsts, including for The Zone of Interest. The chilling Holocaust film is in German - and became the first British film to win a best international feature Oscar.

Its director Jonathan Glazer made a rallying call for peace in the Middle East.

The director of the winning documentary 20 Days in Mariupol also used his speech to raise the issue of conflict. This is Ukraine’s first Oscar, and one Mstyslav Chernov said he would have gladly exchanged for peace.

These were sobering speeches for serious times.

But naturally, after a film about a plastic doll became the biggest grossing film of the year, the 96th Academy Awards were also about pink sequins - and a rendition of I’m Just Ken, by Ryan Gosling, that stole the show. Even if the film behind it only ended up taking one Oscar back to the Barbie house.

This year's Oscars brought more than three hours of glamour, tears, and even full-frontal nudity.

Let's take you through some of the best moments from the biggest night in Hollywood in one minute:

The after-party red carpet is getting busy.

Many of those at the Oscar ceremony will have had a wardrobe swap and are now donning entirely different outfits.

The works of Japan's revered animator Hayao Miyazaki's are done by hand and his latest work, The Boy and the Heron, was ten years in the making, according to Japanese media.

The semi-autobiographical film won Best Animated Feature tonight, Miyazaki's second after his first win in 2003 for Spirited Away introduced global audiences to his fantasy world of crusading children and giant creatures that are both mystical and cuddly.

The founder of animation house Studio Ghibli is also the recipient of an honorary Oscar in 2014. When he received that award, he reflected on his place in a landscape that is increasingly dominated by computer-generated imagery.

"My wife tells me that I'm a very lucky man," he said through a translator.

"I think I've been lucky because I've been able to participate in the last era when we can make films with paper, pencil and film," he said.

Over at the Oscars viewing party at the Hollywood Roosevelt hotel, it has now morphed into a rowdy after-awards disco.

The room is still ringing from the gasps that accompanied Emma Stone's win for Poor Things and applause for Billie Eilish's hugely popular performance of What Was I Made For?

One of the biggest cheers of the night went to host Jimmy Kimmel's retort to Donald Trump's scathing review of his performance, asking the former president, “isn’t it past your jail time?”

Yet more stars, fancy outfits and another red carpet, as everyone leaves the ceremony and heads off to celebrate or commiserate. Or just have some champagne.

It would be remiss of us not to post a few more images:

Emma Stone looked genuinely shocked when her name was announced as the best actress winner earlier.

“I think I blacked out! I was very shocked,” she says backstage.

“I still feel like I’m spinning a little bit. It’s a huge honour and I’m very surprised.”

Having experienced a bit of a wardrobe malfunction, she reassures us that all is now well.

“They sewed me back in! I genuinely think I busted it during I’m Just Ken! I was so amazed by Ryan (Gosling) and that number just blew my mind. I was just going for it and things just happen.”

She said she learned a lot from playing Bella Baxter in Yorgos Lanthimos’s film.

“The chance to play a person starting from scratch but in a metaphorical... way who’s gaining language and skills in a rapid pace… she was just full of joy and curiosity and true love, not just of the good but of the challenging of life and was fascinated by all of it.

"That was amazing to take with me. I really miss playing her – and it was two and a half years ago we wrapped... I’m really glad we get to celebrate tonight!"

Cillian Murphy looks like he’s still in shock as he comes into the press room (although it’s hardly a surprise that he’s won).

“I’m in a little bit of a daze, I’m very overwhelmed, humbled and grateful and very proud to be Irish standing here today,” he says.

“This movie is so special to me - myself and Chris (Nolan) have such a special relationship. We’ve been working together for 20 years, I think he’s the perfect director...I can’t believe my luck. I did a screen test with him when I was a kid and I thought that would be it!”

He said being the first Irish-born actor was “really, really meaningful” to him.

“I can’t remember what I said (in my acceptance speech) but I did want to say I think in Ireland, we’re really great at supporting artists and we need to continue.”

Over on a different red carpet, the BBC's Emma Vardy caught Kylie Minogue just before she headed into the Vanity Fair party.

"I haven't seen the ceremony - I'm reverse-engineering my night - I've just finished my shows in Vegas.

"So I'm getting through this part of the night and I'll go home later to catch up [on the awards]."

She agreed with Billie Eilish's win for best song for Barbie.

"She deserved to win," she said. "To think of that entrance and write that song and deliver it, I think it's beautiful. But I'm Just Ken [another nominated Barbie song] is also amazing."

She added she's had a "huge week with the Brits" where she won the global icon award, plus she's just performed two nights in Vegas and attended the Billboard Women In Music Awards, where she won another icon award.

"So this is kind of a night off," she added.

Phew. She must be in need of a duvet day...

Christopher Nolan starts off with a curveball - joking with a journalist who went to the same school as him as they discuss a history teacher they once had: “Trotsky Turnbull – not what I was expecting to talk about!"

He says he’s going to celebrate by “hitting the Governors Ball and meet up with my kids again".

Speaking of the film’s success with audiences and his peers, he added: “It’s the most incredible thrill. You have to believe there’s an audience for it out there… but the response far exceeded anything I thought possible and winning recognition from my peers is the icing on the cake. It’s very important to me."

He said one thing that really pleased him was “the fact that particularly young people were seeking out large format film”.

Holding one Oscar in each hand (best director and best film), he joked: “It means I can do (bicep) curls, they’re very heavy.”

Emma Thomas, the film’s producer (who is also married to Nolan) said she was “proud” of all the women involved in the film.

The pair who won the Oscar for best sound, Tarn Willers and Johnnie Burn, spoke about the message of humanity in their film, The Zone of Interest.

"This film doesn’t say 'look at those people, they’re awful, how abhorrent', what the film says is 'they’re so like me'," Burn said.

"It’s super important, the message of this film, this little thing here means so many people are going to watch the movie."

”We choose to build walls and sometimes we choose not to look over them," Willers added.

Mstyslav Chernov, is behind the best documentary winner, 20 Days in Mariupol, which details the invasion of the city by Russia.

He is understandably sombre as he reacts to his win backstage.

“It’s been almost two years since Mariupol was occupied, every day we thought of them and other cities. (The film) represents all those cities that have been destroyed. It’s a reminder to the world how to stop this invasion," he says.

“I’m standing here, my heart is in Ukraine. People losing their lives, losing their homes, fighting for their land. I hope this win elevates the story to more people and they will see us.”
