My ear hurts 😢
Timothee is not in love with Kylie Jenner he's in love with his family and career definitely his money
Awww, that’s so sweet. Kylie deserves to be happy and loved and treated good❤😍
✨✨✨Congratualtions!!~🔥🔥🔥🔥
KPOP DEMON HUNTERS Won the ''Best Animated Film of the Year'' and
''Best Song of the Year' at the Critics' Choice Awards!–1/4/2025
Also, thank you for letting everyone know they are now officially known as HUNTR/X.
Next stop, Grammys and the Oscars!
Imagine sitting there and having to laugh at those stupid jokes.
Sinners deserves every award.
Jimmy Fallon best talk show ❤
TC looks like a 12 year-old boy with a blowup doll 😂
Jacob Elordi is the heart and soul of the film. This was a well-deserved win, not because of circumstance, but because of craft. He didn’t win simply because critics favored a new name, nor because Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro are already Oscar winners, nor because voters got confused if they should vote for Penn or del Torro, thus the votes were divided. That explanation is far too easy—and frankly, inaccurate.
Elordi won because he delivered a performance that lingered. He acts from head to toe. In the quietest moments—through stillness, subtle movement, and restrained facial reactions—he communicates volumes. Even beneath prosthetics, his presence remains piercing. He doesn’t just perform; he transmits. And in doing so, he punches the audience straight in the heart.
The critics felt what I felt. That rare gravitas—the kind that cannot be manufactured—was undeniable. It wasn’t loud or showy; it was embodied, internal, and devastatingly human. That is the mark of a truly powerful performance, and one worthy of recognition.
Seeing Elordi and Manigan win feels inspired, not strategic. It feels honest. These were victories earned through depth, risk, and emotional truth—not legacy or politics.
And that’s why this win matters.
Jimmy Kimmel Rocks!! 🎉
I hope Timothee starts treating Kylie repectfully and in a nicer way
2:49 pls who is she? Her name pls ? 😊
Michael B Jordan should of won!
Owen is overrated and has the personality of a wet paper bag.
That's how Timmy got the award
They fucked up not having me in this room. 😊 I’ll continue to chip away until the entire industry crumbles and is given to AI. They never saw me coming and they never will but I was there to the end. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🤠
Lovely ❤
Jessie Buckley, Amy Madigan, Timothee Chalamet and Paul Thomas Anderson are winning their first Oscar trophy.
Why would anyone want anything to do with it or
be around any Kardashian adjacent or not. Timothee run
Very sweet Mr. TC
Timothée Chalamet won
Why is the narrator whispering?
ewwwww, timmy got kardashian- ized…..sad
Nothing about absolute losers.
Ugh Kylie. People need to stop with this family already. 🙄🤦🏻♀️
If Ariana was not the winner, we don’t care who has won. Ariana did an oustanding job and some sleepy judge is corrupt and took the award from her to an unknown artist😤
Their praised and glorified when they promote filth, greed, horror, they elevate wealth as happiness, immoral sex, violence, and hatred of God. Great job here's a pile of money and an award. And we wonder why we're circling the drain. Instead seek God. Repent turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out and times of refreshing may come. Acts 3:19 Jesus died for you repent & believe the good news today. By a simple prayer of faith, ask Jesus Christ into your life right now, and you will be born again.
όλη η ψευτιά του κόσμου μαζεμένη….
