However, for many viewers, it was all about the fashion.
Who can forget when Bjork showed up in her legendary swan dress?
Or Uma Thurman’s pirate get-up?
The illustrious ceremony has been a platform for many celebrities to show off their personal sense of style.
Kaling brought her A-game to the Oscars this year
But first, an outfit change.
She originally showed up in a look that highlighted a major trend this year: the corseted gown.
Only this time, it was an elegant black instead of bold, bright white.
Quite a fun twist on the evening!
Erin Andrews, a broadcaster during the 2023 Super Bowl, pulled a similar stunt.
During the middle of the event, she changed from wearing a white pantsuit into a black one.
Although it remains unclear whether Kaling was inspired by Andrew, both women pulled off the color switch seamlessly!
