Before Oscars host Conan O'Brien launches into his monologue at the March 15 event, check out the red carpet performance put on by stars like Kate Hudson, Teyana Taylor, Emma Stone and Wunmi Mosaku.
Teyana Taylor, Ariana Madix and More Shine at Pre-Oscars 2026 Parties
Rose Byrne, Kate Hudson, Emma Stone, Teyana Taylor and, yes, the cast of KPop Demon Hunters—it's their moment.
And with each of those stars among those hoping to hear their name called at the 2026 Oscars March 15 so they can go up, up, up to the stage inside Los Angeles' Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, you better believe their looks are gonna be, gonna be golden.
"It's turned into a really exciting surprise," Chase Infiniti recently told E! News of anticipating how her One Battle After Another costar Taylor will shut down the carpet. "I'm always here to see what Teyana wears because she's like, quite literally, one of the most stylish people that I know."
As for her own looks, the actress has been winning one award show after another, selecting glittery Louis Vuitton gowns for both the Golden Globes and the Actor Awards.
So, no doubt she'll emerge victorious at the Conan O'Brien-hosted Academy Awards.
Still, she told E! at the 2026 NAACP Image Awards Feb. 28, "I don't want to say anything and hype it up too much or give too much of a teaser, but I'm very excited for it."
Sinners' Wunmi Mosaku, meanwhile, is equally stoked to celebrate with her cast—Ryan Coogler's horror epic making history with its 16 nominations, including nods for Mosaku, Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo.
"It feels incredibly humbling to be a part of this legacy of this film," she told E!. "I would do this job all day, every day forever and ever. And working with Ryan was a dream come true."
Of course she and her cast aren't the only ones living out their greatest fantasies.
Joining Mosaku and Taylor in the stacked Actress in a Supporting Role category are Sentimental Value's Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas and Elle Fanning, along with Weapons' Amy Madigan. (See all the winners here.)
Meanwhile Byrne, Hudson and Stone are up against Sentimental Value's Renate Reinsve and Hamnet's Jessie Buckley.
And for the men, Mosaku's costar Lindo joins Benicio Del Toro, Jacob Elordi, Sean Penn and Stellan Skarsgård in the supporting actor race while the lead actor trophy will go to Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ethan Hawke, Wagner Moura or Jordan.
As for the contest that takes place before a single trophy is handed out, well, you be the judge.
These stars are done hidin' the Oscars looks they spent months planning. Now they're shinin' like they're born to be.
