5. Adam Sandler, in his usual relaxed style, stole the show and brought a smile to everyone’s face. During Conan O’Brien’s opening speech at the Oscars, Sandler suddenly got up. He was wearing shorts and a sweatshirt, a very casual look for the formal event. He walked quickly onto the stage, interrupting Conan’s monologue. Sandler went straight to Timothée Chalamet and gave him a big hug.
