Halle Berry Recreates Iconic Oscars Kiss with Adrien Brody—20 Years Later!

Halle Berry Recreates Iconic Oscars Kiss with Adrien Brody—20 Years Later!
  • PublishedMarch 2, 2025

In a delightful throwback moment at the Oscars, Halle Berry made headlines by planting a kiss on Adrien Brody, a nostalgic nod to their unforgettable 2003 encounter. The two stars graced the red carpet on Sunday night, where Berry swooped in during one of Brody’s interviews to recreate the moment that once went viral. “I had to pay him back,” she quipped to the crowd after sharing the affectionate embrace, reminding everyone of that bold kiss Brody planted on her during his Oscar win for “The Pianist” two decades ago.

For those who might not remember, back in 2003, Brody took the stage to accept his Oscar and, instead of just thanking the Academy, he pulled Berry into a surprise kiss that left the audience—and viewers at home—absolutely stunned. It’s one of those moments that has become part of Oscars lore, often cited in discussions about the most memorable moments in the Academy’s long history. Fast forward to this year, and it seems the duo was eager to relive some of that magic, with Berry making sure she got her moment in the spotlight too.

But the night wasn’t just about nostalgia for these two. Adrien Brody is nominated for Best Actor again—this time for his role in “The Brutalist.” Many are speculating that he stands a solid chance of taking home another trophy. On the other hand, Emma Stone, who presented the award, is married, so let’s hope Brody keeps his affection in check if he wins this time around!

With the Oscars being the epitome of Hollywood glamour and surprise moments, it’s not just about the awards but also the fun interactions and connections between stars. This playful kiss serves as a reminder of the unexpected and often heartwarming relationships that can develop within the industry. As the Oscars continue to evolve, one thing remains clear: moments like these keep fans engaged and excited for what comes next.
