We celebrated some of the best in Black talent during Saturday’s (February 25) NAACP Image Awards. Afterward, the final eve of the weekend found many of the same faces at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards. The ceremony markedly honours each year’s best in TV and film, as well as the best-dressed on the red carpet. This time, it was Everything Everywhere All At Once, Abbott Elementary, and The White Lotus that came out on top.
The latter series is an HBO Original that previously quickly rose in popularity. It was created by School of Rock actor Mike White. The hit show took home two awards last night. One was for Jennifer Coolidge’s iconic performance as Tanya and another for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series. The moment was undeniably huge for everyone involved. Still, Aubrey Plaza was obviously annoyed during her time on stage for the speech.
Audrey’s Awkward Moment
Following the ceremony, footage of the Parks & Recreation starlet has been making rounds on social media for several reasons. She appears to surprisingly be nearly elbowed and pushed out of the way by many costars on the platform. Surely that would bother anyone, but it was the next interaction that seemed to really set Plaza off.
In the middle of the speech, fellow performer Jon Gries obviously appears to make an upsetting comment. Many believe he told the Delaware native her chest was evidently slipping out of her Michael Kors gown. Immediately after the comment was quietly made, she accordingly adjusts her dress, anger obvious on her face. At various points, Plaza specifically seems to mouth, “Shit’s f*cked… Jesus Christ.”
Aubrey’s outfit certainly didn’t turn out the way she had hoped. Thankfully, other SAG Award patrons had far better luck. Zendaya finally gave fans an incredible serve two nights in a row. Elsewhere, Angela Bassett’s bright yellow gown had her glowing. Keep scrolling to see all our red carpet favourites, and check back later for more pop culture news.
