Adrien Brody won his second Oscar at the 2025 Academy Awards, where his leading turn in Brady Corbet’s “The Brutalist” won the best actor prize. His buzzy acceptance speech was proceeded by one of the ceremony’s most viral moments: Brody was chewing gum when his name was called, so he took it out of his mouth while walking up to the stage and threw it to his girlfriend, Georgina Chapman.
Brody and Chapman joined “Live With Kelly and Mark” backstage at the Oscars minutes after his big win, where Brody admitted: “I could’ve swallowed it, but I didn’t think about that. I had to get rid of it somehow.”
Chapman admitted that she actually didn’t catch Brody’s gum. Kelly Ripa played the viral clip back and zoomed in on Chapman, who fumbled the catch as Brody’s gum landed on the Oscars carpet in front of the stage.
Popular on VarietyIt was a notable Oscars for Brody. Hours before his big win, Halle Berry crashed one of his red carpet interviews and gave him a big kiss. It was a callback to one of the Academy Awards’ most iconic moments. When Brody won his first Oscar 22 years ago for “The Pianist,” he excitingly took the stage and gave presenter Berry a passionate kiss on the lips.
“That was one hell of a night for him, and for me as well. To be a part of his moment… tonight I had to pay him back,” Berry told Variety on this year’s Oscars red carpet after her latest Brody kiss. “I’ve seen him out at parties, but this is the first time since that night that I’ve seen him on the red carpet somewhere.”
After the viral gum moment, Brody continued to create buzzy Oscars moment with his acceptance speech. The Academy started to play the actor off as his speech hit the time limit, but he demanded the music stop so that he could finish his speech.
“I’m wrapping up, please turn the music off,” Brody said. “I’ve done this before. Thank you. It’s not my first rodeo, but I will be brief.”
Brody began his five-minute speech by expressing his gratitude for the life and career he has been afforded, telling viewers: “Acting is a very fragile profession. It looks very glamorous, and at certain moments it is. But the one thing that I’ve gained having the privilege to come back here is to have some perspective. No matter where you are in your career, no matter what you’ve accomplished, it can all go away. And I think what makes this night most special is the awareness of that, and the gratitude that I have to still do the work that I love.”
