Celebrities’ jaw-dropping reactions to the Oscar mix-up
The most anticipated award of the Oscar night experienced the greatest slip up in Academy Award history.
La La Land was wrongfully announced as best picture and the producers had to let everyone know that Moonlight had won instead.
The stage awkwardly transitioned from La La Land cast and crew to the Moonlight creators.
The LA Times captured key celebrities’ reaction to this infamous moment, revealing the shock that erupted in the room.
This photo reveals the expression of Meryl Streep, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, David Oyelowo, Dwayne Johnson and more.
Their faces sum up the disbelief that was among the millions of viewers watching the mistake unfold.
This Oscar reaction photo may even become more historic than Ellen’s Oscar selfie.
