Oscars Tweets

Literally just the tweets

Last night was the Oscars! Jane and I watched it in person together which was v special, even though we started watching an hour late. Instead of our usual content round up, we’re just going to round up the best moments and best tweets from the night.

And this week is Lizzy’s birthday week! Happy birthday Lizzy.

Christy Lemire @christylemire

How much of a badass is Youn Yuh-Jung that she gets up on stage to accept her #Oscar and immediately starts flirting with Brad Pitt.

Michelle Ye Hee Lee @myhlee

And then calls out all the people who have mispronounced her name. Boss

karen han @karenyhan

brad pitt call youn yuh-jung challenge

Louis Virtel @louisvirtel

I love how Youn Yuh-jung’s approach to this whole thing was, “Uh, thank you, it’s insane that I’m here but since you asked, I am in fact hilarious.”

alex @alex_abads

fyi: youn yuh-jung has a reality tv show called youn's kitchen where a group of south korean actors open up a pop up restaurant. the first season was in indonesia, and the second was in the canary islands. it is v. pleasant and v. soothing.
