Amongst the glitz and glamour of the 97th annual Oscars red carpet – there was a standout moment that has left viewers rather surprised.
Halle Berry appears to spot Oscar-nominated actor, Adrien Brody, then makes her way over and pulls him in for a (rather passionate) kiss in FRONT of his girlfriend, Georgina Chapman.
@accesshollywood HALLE BERRY KISSED ADRIEN BRODY AT THE #OSCARS !!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL 🚨 #AWARDSEASON
Despite the unexpected smooch, Brody pulls Berry in for a warm embrace.
The act was not random, however, and in fact calls back to a moment 22 years ago, when Berry presented Brody with his first Oscar for The Pianist.
Brody was so overcome with emotion that he planted a big one on the Catwoman actor, which at the time, was not received well.
20 years on, Berry gets her revenge. Perhaps it was a good omen to The Brutalist actor, who went on to win his second Oscar for Best Actor.
