Moore, 62, also looked visibly upset and tensed her jaw when she heard the 25-year-old’s name being called out over her own, per a video shared on X.
Moore and Madison were nominated for one of the most coveted awards of the night alongside Fernanda Torres for “I’m Still Here,” “Emilia Pérez” star Karla Sofía Gascón and “Wicked” actress Cynthia Erivo.
After making her way to the stage in a daze, Madison addressed attendees while clutching her Oscar, saying, “This is very surreal. I grew up in Los Angeles, but Hollywood always felt so far away from me, so to be here, standing in this room today, is really incredible.”

After thanking the movie’s production company and director, Sean Baker, she added, “I just want to recognize and honor the sex worker community.
“Yes, I will continue to support and be an ally. All of the incredible people, the women that I’ve had the privilege of meeting from that community has been one of the highlights of this incredible experience.”
