Stars' Casual Preparations for the 2024 Academy Awards
While the Academy imposes strict guidelines on pre-show disclosures, the rehearsal provided a charming peek into celebrities' casual and unguarded moments. Lupita Nyong’o effortlessly combined a white beanie and sweatsuit with elegant heels fit for the awards show stage, while Zendaya powered through a sore throat, appearing on stage in jeans and a striking emerald coat that trailed behind her.
Catherine O’Hara and Michael Keaton encountered a stumble over their teleprompter script, prompting a polite request to rewind. America Ferrera, donning Barbie-pink shoes, humorously dropped an unexpected word and promptly apologized to her co-presenter, Kate McKinnon, after unintentionally interrupting her line.
Ferrera and McKinnon brought vibrant energy to the brass tacks rehearsal, primarily dedicated to fine-tuning lighting cues and camera angles for the pinnacle of Hollywood's calendar.
Preparations Outside the Oscars Theater
Beyond the theater doors, the Oscars red carpet appeared notably less glamorous, scattered with ladders, boxes, and shrink-wrapped statues as camera crews began to claim their spots. Photographers rehearsed capturing images of tuxedo-clad stand-ins, each holding laminated signs bearing the names of A-list celebrities.
