Taking it on the chin.
Demi Moore might not have taken home the Oscar for best actress, but she celebrated nonetheless with some yummy treats.
Talulah Willis took to Instagram early Monday morning to share a snap of her mom indulging in two massive bowls of french fries after losing one of the most coveted awards of the night to Mikey Madison.
“MY winner 🍟,” Tallulah, whom Moore shares with ex-husband Bruce Willis, captioned the picture.
The “Substance” star, 62, looked comfy in a bathrobe as she held up a fry and clutched her beloved Chihuahua, Pilaf, to her chest.
The family had just returned home from the Vanity Fair afterparty, where Moore celebrated her first Oscar nomination with daughters Talulluah, Rumer Willis and Scout Willis.
Although Moore was expected to win the statuette for best actress for her role in “The Substance,” Madison took it home for “Anora.” The two women were nominated alongside Fernanda Torres, Karla Sofía Gascón and Cynthia Erivo.
Despite her positive demeanor at the Vanity Fair party and around her family, the “Ghost” actress was visibly upset when last year’s winner, Emma Stone, announced Madison’s name.
Moore could be seen clenching her jaw before applauding for the 25-year-old rising star.
Lip reader Nicole Hickling told the Daily Mail, “Demi says ‘nice,’ but she isn’t smiling when she says it. Her body is almost nodding like she had to force herself to say it.”
Nonetheless, Madison addressed Moore and the rest of the nominees during her acceptance speech, saying, “I also just want to recognize the thoughtful, intelligent, beautiful, breathtaking work of my fellow nominees. I’m honored to be recognized alongside all of you.
“This is a dream come true. I’m probably going to wake up tomorrow.”
Aside from her family, fans also took to social media to express their support for Moore.
“I watched the Oscar’s just to see Demi Moore win,” one person commented on Tallulah’s post. “She totally deserved it.”
Another added, “Win or lose your mother gave a performance that will go down in history as iconic and something that people will talk about as a marker in horror and study in femininity in horror. Please give her a cheers with a fry ❤️.”
Meanwhile, a third said, “Our winner til the end of time.”
