The American actor of Vietnamese origin Ke Huy Quan was the center of attention at the last Oscar Awards and swept the show, not because he won an award, but because of his jovial spirit and his interaction with other celebrities during the gala.
Through his Instagram account, he shared two sets of selfies that he took with several colleagues in the film industry, showing his joy and excitement at being among them.
In a post, Ke Huy Quan said: “Lots of fun at the Oscars. I’m so glad @theacademy brought back past winners to honor this year’s nominees. I was so proud and honored to be among these men in the presentation of the Best Supporting Actor category. Congratulations to all the winners of the night.” With these statements he reflects his gratitude and enthusiasm for participating in such an important event for the film industry.
In another post, in a more joking way, he added: “I know they are here because of my photos.” This showed his sense of humor and his willingness to interact with his followers on social networks in a light and fun way.
In addition to enjoying the night of the Oscars, Ke Huy Quan had the opportunity to go on stage with other renowned actors such as Tim Robbins, Christoph Waltz and Sam Rockwell to present the award for Best Supporting Actor, which finally went to Robert Downey Jr. for his performance in “Oppenheimer.”
However, his participation in the awards ceremony was not without controversy, as some social media users interpreted a possible snub on the part of Robert Downey Jr. towards Ke Huy Quan by not greeting him when receiving the award. This situation generated debate among the followers of both actors on social networks.
