LOS ANGELES -- The 2025 Oscars are officially here.
Conan O'Brien is hosting the 97th Academy Awards, which honor the best in cinema from the past year.
"Emilia Pérez" leads the field of nominees this year with 13 total Oscar nominations, just one shy of tying the record for most nominations by a single film held by "All About Eve," "Titanic" and "La La Land."
"The Brutalist" and "Wicked" follow closely behind with 10 nominations each, while "A Complete Unknown" and "Conclave" round out the top-nominated films with eight nods apiece.
This year's show will honor the city of Los Angeles, showcasing its resilience in the wake of the wildfires that left at least 29 dead and destroyed thousands of homes.
The Oscars ceremony is live on ABC now and is streaming live on Hulu for the first time.
Follow along below with updates throughout the night, and check out all coverage of the 2025 Oscars here.
I’d do a shot every time someone rails against Trump from the podium except I have to work in the morning and I’d still be too drunk to drive when I woke up tomorrow with a skull crushing hangover.
Wow, slim pickin’s, eh?
Oh, the awards are on, sorry I was too busy scratching my a@@ to care
You’d die of alcohol poisoning before the second hour of show was over.
OMG. Benny Johnson on what should happen at the Oscars tonight...

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Conclave: SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
The new Pope is a CHICK... without a DICK!
A movie about an talent-less druggy architect.
A movie about a Roman Catholic priest who had a add a dick to me.
A movie about how the villain in a children's book is actually a hero.
And a movie about a guy who can not sing.
Be still my beating stomach.
Conan is doing a great job.
“Before we go any further, I want you to know, we did not use A.I. To make this show. No A.I. Yeah. No A.I. Yeah. We would never do that, we use child labor.”
Demi Moore was HOT!!
But, I still have no clue what that movie was even about?
Margaret Qualley (Andie MacDowell's daughter) had a bunch of nude scenes as well in this film except she was wearing prosthetic boobs.
Thanks. I had to look up who Kieran Culkin was and for what film. Haven’t heard of it but then I reazlied I had seen the trailer before another movie, and didn’t catch the tiel. Didn’t realize it was an Oscar-buzz type flick. It came off more airy.
Macaulay Culkin’s wife, Brenda, was in “Last Showgirl” which I did see.
They’ve been well-behaved so far.
That Alba chick looks like Meryl Streep after 10 rounds with Tyson.
I have seen healthier looking holocaust survivors than Ariana Grande
Inglorious Bastards and Ricky Gervais.....lololol!
Same here!
The VW commercial with the SNL characters from The Californians is the highlight of the broadcast so far.
Yeah..it is that lame.
typos
