This year’s Oscars has had plenty of iconic moments, from John Cena streaking through to Ryan Gosling glaming it up as Ken. 

Here are the key events so far from the 2024 Academy Awards: 

Oscars feels the Ken-ergy

Ryan Gosling took to the stage to perform Barbie movie hit I’m Just Ken in a show-stopping performance. 

He sported a sparkly pink suit and was joined on stage by a number of other Kens in suits and cowboy hats, with Guns and Roses’ guitarist Slash also making a special appearance.

The performance ended with the crowd standing and singing along as Gosling passed the mic to Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig among other stars. 

Margot’s revenge dress

Stepping away from the Barbie pink once again, Margot Robbie stepped onto the red carpet in a gorgeous black Versace dress.

There was some suggestion the outfit could be a nod to Princess Diana’s iconic black revenge dress because Robbie was not nominated for the Best Actress award. 

Messi a crowd favourite

And no we aren’t talking about the Argentinian footballer. 

This is Messi. 

The Anatomy of a Fall star looked adorable in the audience and was even spotted clapping for some of the winners. 

Sadly, there was no award for Best Good Boy at the Oscars. 

Best costume … without a costume

From Versace to vastly naked, John Cena took to the stage in nothing but a pair of sandals to hand out the Best Costume Design award. 

Cena tried at the last minute to bail out of the streaking bit before reluctantly coming on to the stage. 

The wrestling star asked host Jimmy Kimmel to help read out the awards — given he couldn’t quite move the envelope without the show becoming R rated.

Barbenheimer rivalry ends

Well, at least Emily Blunt and Ryan Gosling tried to end it. 

Gosling started by suggesting to Blunt it was time to end the rivalry.

Blunt agreed and said there wasn’t much of a rivalry with the way the awards season had gone. But Gosling’s Ken-splanation of why it’s Barbenheimer and not Oppenbarbie didn’t go down well: 

“I think you guys are at the tail end of that because you were riding Barbie’s coat-tails all summer.” 

Robert Downey Jr thanks ‘terrible childhood’ for first Oscar win

The Iron Man star won his first Oscar, taking the gong for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Oppenheimer.

“I would like to thank my terrible childhood and the academy in that order,” Downey Jr said to open his acceptance speech. 

“I would like to thank my veterinarian … I meant wife Susan Downey over there.

“She found me a snarling rescue pet and you loved me back to life, and that is why I am here.”

He admitted in the speech he needed the film more than it needed him. 

Also taking home his first Oscar tonight was Wes Anderson. He won Best Live Short Film for The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, but was not at the show to accept the award.

Mini Godzillas help accept award

Masaki Takahashi, Takashi Yamazaki, Kiyoko Shibuya and Tatsuji Nojima accepted the Best Visual Effects award for Godzilla Minus One by bringing mini Godzillas on stage with them. 

In his acceptance speech, director Yamazaki said: “Even then the possibility of standing on this stage seemed out of reach, and the moment we were nominated we felt like Rocky Balboa.
