The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences held its annual class-photo luncheon, now a dinner, to celebrate the 2025 Oscar nominees. The event took place at the Academy Museum, where nominees wore formal attire and enjoyed lavish catering. The atmosphere mimicked that of a high school prom, with Colman Domingo shining as a charismatic figure. While attendees made an effort with name tags, not everyone succeeded, highlighting the casual yet glamorous nature of the gathering. Celebrities mingled, reconnecting over drinks and chatter, creating a memorable prelude to the Oscars.
The energy around the contenders was not unlike that of a prom, if Wolfgang Puck personally oversaw the catering of a high-school dance.
Every year, the Academy gathers all of its Oscar nominees for a class photo and a fancy meal.
Academy staff asked the nominees to wear name tags to varying levels of success.
Everywhere you turned, Domingo was glad-handing, kiki-ing, and generally having more fun than everyone else.
