00:00From the protests outside, to off-camera moments inside the show with stars like Emma Stone, Lily Gladstone, John Cena, and more.
00:07I'm Tiffany Taylor for The Hollywood Reporter here at the 2024 Oscars, and we're showing you the things you didn't see on TV.
00:13Ahead of the 2024 Oscars telecast, a protest calling for a ceasefire in Gaza began at the Cinerama Dome in Los Angeles, and made its way toward the Dolby Theater.
00:22Free! Free Palestine! Free! Free Palestine!
00:26The protest, organized by Riders Against the War on Gaza L.A., Film Workers for Palestine, SAG-AFTRA members for Ceasefire, and more groups, came to a halt at the intersection of Sunset and Highland, where cars were stuck in standstill traffic for more than 30 minutes.
00:40As a result, people began leaving their cars at the intersection, knowing they'd likely get towed and walking toward the event.
00:46Ariana Grande shared this post on her Instagram story, referencing the traffic.
00:50She was later spotted rushing into the show. The broadcast was delayed six minutes due to late arrivals.
00:55On the red carpet, stars like Mark Ruffalo, Billie Eilish, Ava DuVernay, Rami Youssef, and more were red artists for Ceasefire pins.
01:03Youssef spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the meaning behind the pins.
01:06We're all calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. We're calling for the safety of everyone involved, and we really want lasting justice and peace for the Palestinian people.
01:16Inside the show, stars like Emma Stone, Rita Moreno, and Greta Gerwig, as well as Issa Rae and John Batiste, could be seen chatting it up during commercial breaks.
01:24THR also spotted director Martin Scorsese talking to Lily Gladstone after Stone won Best Actress for Poor Things, an award many thought the Killers of the Flower Moon actress was favored to win.
01:35Jimmy Kimmel hosted the ceremony. During one of his bits, he made a callback to the 1974 Oscars when a streaker ran across the stage.
01:42But this time, it was planned with none other than John Cena.
01:45Costumes?
01:51They are so important.
01:53While it looked like Cena was completely naked on screen, Eyes From Inside the Dolby Theater revealed that he was in fact wearing a flesh-colored sling.
02:01He was later given a toga-like outfit to drape over himself, before announcing the winner for costume design.
02:06After the show ended, winners like Stone and Robert Downey Jr. got their trophies engraved at the Governor's Ball.
02:12And Best Actor winner for Oppenheimer, Killian Murphy, was spotted receiving a warm welcome at the Universal Pictures afterparty.
