Oscar 2025 Winners and Short Film Category Awards

Oscar 2025

We have left behind an incredibly exciting wave. The Oscar Academy Awards festival, which had been in preparation for a long time, took place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles with great splendor and effort. It was truly a magnificent event, wasn’t it? The past days were filled with excitement and curiosity for both the nominated candidates and the audience closely following these categories.

The ceremony was hosted by the famous comedian Conan O’Brien, and many well-known figures presented awards. Last year’s winners, Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Robert Downey Jr., handed out the awards to this year’s winners.

Some of the other presenters included Oprah Winfrey, Scarlett Johansson, Selena Gomez, Penélope Cruz, Amy Poehler, Goldie Hawn, Connie Nielsen, Lily-Rose Depp, Sterling K. Brown, Willem Dafoe, Joe Alwyn, Ana de Armas, Bowen Yang, Ben Stiller, Halle Berry, Elle Fanning, John Lithgow, June Squibb, and Whoopi Goldberg.

One thing is certain: both the award winners and presenters looked stunning and elegant. It was a true visual feast filled with jokes, laughter, and applause. We must congratulate all those who contributed to this event. I am sure it was no easy task to put together such a spectacular show.
