Nicole Kidman stole the spotlight on the Vanity Fair Oscars Party 2026 red carpet — without even trying.
In a hilarious moment exclusively caught by Page Six, the actress walked behind Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos during their photo op, accidentally photobombing their snaps.
Kidman, who dazzled in a beaded gold Chanel gown, grabbed the photographers’ attention away from Sánchez and Bezos, who coordinated in black ensembles for the occasion.
Once the “Big Little Lies” star began posing for photos beside the couple, they stopped posing and marveled as the red carpet pro commanded the room.
Fans on Instagram poked fun at the “Practical Magic” star, 58, stealing the billionaire pair’s thunder.
“This queen walked right by and said the movie star is here 🏆👏🏼,” one wrote, praising Kidman.

“Move over amateurs, court is now in session. 👑 ,” another added. “She didn’t just photobomb them – she rendered them obsolete,” a third quipped.
“Because she’s an Oscar winning actress and she deserves to be there way more than they do🏆 ,” another fan noted, referring to Kidman’s best actress win at the 2002 Oscars for her role in the “Hours.”
Kidman’s glamorous gold look at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party was her second look of the night.
For the awards show, she stunned in a blush pink Chanel gown made of chiffon and feathers.
She wore her blond hair down in California beach waves and wore minimal jewelry for both of her looks.
During the show, she reunited with Ewan McGregor in celebration of the 25th anniversary of “Moulin Rouge!” and present the award for best picture, which was won by “One Battle After Another.”
