Oscars 2024: 'Oppenheimer' wins 7 awards, Ryan Gosling steals the show with 'I'm Just Ken' performance and a full list of winners (2024)

The curtains have finally closed on the Oscars. That's a wrap on the 2024 awards season!

Oppenheimer was the big winner of the night, with seven awards including Best Picture and Best Director. The acting awards went to Cillian Murphy (Best Actor, Oppenheimer), Emma Stone (Best Actress, Poor Things), Robert Downey Jr. (Best Supporting Actor, Oppenheimer) and Da'Vine Joy Randolph (Best Supporting Actress, The Holdovers).

Ryan Gosling didn't have to win a trophy to be crowned the true king of the night, though. His performance of "I'm Just Ken," from Barbie, stole the show.

      As guests exit the theater, “ceasefire now” is being chanted behind a large hedge barrier as everyone waits for their car-service pick ups.

      We were all on our feet for Best Picture presenter Al Pacino, whose star power electrified the room. So much so that he maybe didn’t think he had to announce the winner of Best Picture in traditional fashion.

      His casual mention of Oppenheimer as the winner had multiple people looking around to confirm Christopher Nolan’s film was indeed the name called for the top prize. Once we all realized it was, everyone stood up and celebrated accordingly.

      John Krasinski pulled wife Emily Blunt, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for the film, in for a kiss and a sweet moment before everyone made their way to the stage.

      Before moving to the final award of the night, Jimmy Kimmel took a moment to read a review of his performance as host tonight — from former President Donald Trump.

      Kimmel read Trump's Truth Social post aloud:

      "Has there EVER been a WORSE HOST than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars. His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be. Get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up, but cheap, ABC "talent,” George Slopanopoulos. He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous. Also a really bad politically correct show tonight, and for years - Disjointed, boring, and very unfair. Why don’t they just give the Oscars to those that deserve them. Maybe that way their audience and TV ratings will come back from the depths. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

      "Isn't it past your jail time?" Kimmel shot back at Trump, who faces 91 criminal offenses in four criminal cases.

      Emma Stone won her second Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of Bella Baxter in Poor Things.

      In her speech, she thanked the other women nominated in her category, as well as the cast and crew of the film.

      "The best part of making movies is all of us together," she said.

      Stone also thanked her family, with a special mention of her daughter, "who is going to be 3 in three days, and has turned our lives technicolor," she said. "I love you bigger than the whole sky."

      As she left the stage, Stone asked the audience not to look at the back of her dress, as it was broken. She joked that it must've happened during Ryan Gosling's performance of "I'm Just Ken."

      Cillian Murphy predictably won the Oscar for Best Actor for playing J. Robert Oppenheimer in the movie Oppenheimer. It's his first Academy Award.

      "We made a film about the man who created the atomic bomb, and for better or worse, we're all living in Oppenheimer's world," Murphy said. "So I would like to dedicate this to the peacemakers everywhere."

      He also said he was a "very proud Irishman standing here tonight."

      There’s a reason why this presenting format was a crowd pleaser in 2009.

      Nicolas Cage had the theater laughing out loud as he toasted nominee Paul Giamatti and quipped that he, too, would give up his sight for a role as Giamatti did during The Holdovers. The actor wore a contact to give himself a lazy eye.

      Ryan Gosling might have lost the award for Best Supporting Actor, but he stole the show with his performance of "I'm Just Ken" from Barbie.

      Accompanied to start on guitar by producer and writer Mark Ronson, Gosling belted out the iconic song. He wore a pink suit and gloves in what appeared to be an homage to the 1953 Marilyn Monroe classic Gentleman Prefer Blondes.

      Actors who played other versions of Ken in Barbie, including Simu Liu and Kingsley Ben-Adir, joined Gosling on stage. An army of other Kens performed choreography alongside them. At one point, Slash appeared for a guitar moment.

      Toward the end, he passed the mic to Barbie director Greta Gerwig as well as co-stars America Ferrera and Margot Robbie for a sing-along.

      The fact practically everyone rushed to their seats from the lobby bar during the commercial break that teased Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken” performance says it all — and it was so worth it.

      A standout moment of the show was when Gosling took the stage alongside his fellow Kens. The crowd was on its feet almost immediately, and then when Slash was a surprise performer, it elevated the Kenergy.

      There wasn’t a person in the room without a smile and who wasn't singing along to the words at the end thanks to the lyrics flashing onscreen. The theater is buzzing.

      Mstyslav Chernov, a Pulitzer-winning journalist and director of Best Documentary Feature winner 20 Days in Mariupol, delivered a powerful acceptance speech. The film follows a team of Associated Press journalists who documented the horrors of war in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol as Russia invaded.

      "I wish I would have never made this film," he said. "I wish to be able to exchange this [for] Russia never attacking Ukraine, never occupying our cities."

      Chernov said he hoped the film would "set the record straight" so that "truth will prevail," and that the people of the city of Mariupol who gave their lives "will never be forgotten."

      "Cinema forms memories, and memories form history," he added. “Thanks to Ukraine.”

      The Kenergy is building.

      Barbie star Simu Liu told the audience to get out their phones and then turn the flashlight on for a sing-along moment during Ryan Gosling's first-ever live performance of "I’m Just Ken."

      Liu also jokingly called out Cillian Murphy and told him to get into it.
