Jeff Goldblum and Emilie Livingston Steal Spotlight at 2026 Oscars After-Party
Veteran actor Jeff Goldblum, aged 73, and his much-younger wife Emilie Livingston, 43, created a sensational buzz on the red carpet at Vanity Fair's prestigious Oscars after-party. The glamorous event unfolded on Sunday night at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, following the conclusion of the 2026 Academy Awards ceremony.
A Daring Fashion Display
Livingston captivated photographers with an audacious ensemble, featuring a sparkling thong leotard that left little to the imagination. She confidently posed with her back to the cameras, leaning against her husband who looked impeccably sharp in a classic tuxedo paired with a dramatic black trench coat.
Her risqué outfit was completed with sheer tights, towering stiletto heels, stylish sunglasses, and an elegant fur shawl that perfectly coordinated with the collar of Goldblum's coat. The couple, who have been married since 2014, enjoyed a rare date night away from their parenting duties. They are proud parents to two young sons: Charlie, aged 10, and River, aged eight.
Star-Studded Celebration
The Vanity Fair bash attracted numerous A-list celebrities, creating an electric atmosphere of Hollywood glamour. Among the notable attendees were fashion icons Kim Kardashian and Hailey Bieber, alongside acclaimed actresses Emily Ratajkowski and Kate Hudson.
This glittering gathering followed the main 2026 Oscars ceremony where the film industry's biggest names discovered the fate of their nominations. The evening proved particularly momentous for several winners who made Oscar history.
Historic Oscar Wins
Michael B. Jordan, aged 39, delivered one of the night's biggest surprises by clinching the Best Actor award for his performance in Sinners. He triumphed over favorite Timothée Chalamet, aged 30, who had been widely predicted to win for his role in Marty Supreme. The competitive category also included Leonardo DiCaprio for One Battle After Another, Ethan Hawke for Blue Moon, and Wagner Moura for The Secret Agent.
Jordan appeared genuinely stunned as he approached the stage to accept his award from previous winner Adrien Brody. Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler, tells the gripping story of two brothers returning to their hometown only to confront a terrifying vampire threat. Jordan delivered a remarkable dual performance portraying both serious older twin Elijah 'Smoke' Moore and his more cheerful younger sibling Elias 'Stack' Moore.
Best Actress and Picture Honors
Jessie Buckley, aged 36, continued her award-winning streak by securing the Best Actress Oscar for her powerful portrayal in Hamnet. The Irish actress prevailed over strong competition including Rose Byrne for If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, Kate Hudson for Song Sung Blue, Renate Reinsve for Sentimental Value, and Emma Stone for Bugonia.
Hamnet explores the profound grief experienced by Agnes and William Shakespeare, played by Buckley and Paul Mescal, following the loss of their son to plague in 16th-century England. The film is adapted from the acclaimed novel of the same name.
The evening's top honor, Best Picture, went to One Battle After Another, a film centered on ex-revolutionaries reuniting to rescue a comrade's daughter. Director Paul Thomas Anderson accepted the prestigious award alongside co-star Teyana Taylor, presented by Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman.
Additional Award Highlights
One Battle After Another emerged as the night's biggest winner with six Oscars total. Anderson earned both Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay honors for the film. Meanwhile, Sean Penn, aged 65, secured his third Oscar with a Best Supporting Actor win for his work in the same film, though he was notably absent from the ceremony.
Amy Madigan, aged 75, claimed the first award of the evening, winning Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Zach Creggar's supernatural horror film Weapons. Ryan Coogler celebrated his first Oscar victory in the Best Original Screenplay category for Sinners.
One of the most emotionally resonant moments came when Autumn Durald Arkapaw won Best Cinematography for Sinners. The animated feature KPop Demon Hunters made history by winning both Best Animated Feature Film and Best Original Song for Golden, triumphing over strong competition in both categories.
The Netflix production follows members of a world-famous KPop girl group who balance their public personas with secret lives as demon hunters, blending music and supernatural action in a groundbreaking cinematic experience.
