After the awards are all divvied out, the appropriate parties have been thanked, and the press have been attended to, it’s time for the stars to let loose. The Oscars after parties are the biggest events in the Hollywood social calendar, with every big name in the business throwing back drinks together and letting their hair down.
The biggest parties are the Vanity Fair Oscars After Party 2014, the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party and the Governor’s Ball. It’s not just film stars that make an appearance, musicians, tv personalities and more show up to the most elite of social functions.
At the Vanity Fair after party Miranda Kerry had an awkward run in with ex Orlando Bloom on the red carpet. Miranda was reportedly in the middle of a television interview when Orlando walked past, stopped and kissed her on the cheek and said ‘You look amazing! You well?’ before walking away, leaving Kerr stunned enough to laugh.
Bill Murray was reportedly the life and soul of the Vanity Fair party encouraging guests to dance and sing along to the Isley Brothers classic, Shout. Here the actor is caught lifting Amy Poehler upside down with a hand from Paul Rudd.
We love this snap of Anne Hathoway being photo bombed by Jared Leto. The actress lives up to her uptight public persona, whilst Jared Leto lets out his wild side in the hilarious shot.
