    Many people shared their thoughts on a perceived “snub” they saw on television during their viewing of the Oscars the other night. To some spectators, Emma Stone appeared to pass Michelle Yeoh unnoticed as she took the platform to win the Academy Award for Best Actress. Yeoh, the previous year’s winner, was presenting the Oscar statuette to this year’s winner.

    Some believed that Stone had taken Yeoh’s trophy and started handing it to Jennifer Lawrence, who was also on stage. Others believed Yeoh was denying Stone, this year’s winner, the Oscar in favor of Lawrence.

    Yeoh, though, used social media to explain what truly transpired. Yeoh claimed that all she wanted was for Lawrence to enjoy the occasion with her closest friend.

    In an Instagram post, she said, “Congratulations, Emma! I apologize if I misled you, but I wanted to celebrate with you and your closest friend Jennifer when I gave you the Oscar! She made me think of my best friend Jamie Lee Curtis ♥️✨ they’re always there for one another! 😘😘😘. She was really kind to Emma Stone and the rest of the audience by explaining the situation.

    She included photos from the occasion to go with the narrative. She included a picture of herself embracing Stone on stage in addition to the moment when the award was given out, which was the buzz of the town. And a last photo of the Best Actress team, which included Sally Field, Charlize Theron, and Jessica Lange, following the award ceremony.

    Supporters and admirers expressed their delight that Yeoh had cleared up the unclear situation.

    Rachel Zegler, who starred in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, also left a comment, using a few emojis to convey her joy.

    “I appreciate the explanation! That was the sweetest thing you could have done to add Emma’s closest friend Jennifer Lawrence to her special day. I’m grateful, Michelle! One of your fans remarked, “You are such a wonderful human being and talented actress.”

    “Your presence here is unworthy of our world! Another person said, “What an insight so many others would overlook—passing the Oscar over so she can share that moment with her friend.”

    There are numerous behind-the-scenes footage showing the two ladies hugging following the award event, which should allay any doubts that remained about the explanation.
