This is how celebs sneak booze into the Oscars and we could learn a thing or two
IF YOU’VE EVER watched the red carpet coverage from an awards show, you’ll know that it’s a long ass night.
Getting ready from the early hours of the morning to making their way to the red carpet around 6pm, it’s all go, go, go and then it’s showtime.
One of the most common complaints from those lucky enough to get an invite is how hungry they can get from all that waiting around.
And naturally, when you’ve spent the majority of your week preparing for your big night out, you’d be desperate for a drink too.
But getting a drink at the Dolby Theatre on Oscar night is harder than getting to the bar in Coppers on All Ireland Sunday.
The bar itself is located outside of theatre so the celebs have to make their way out of the their seats, passed the heard of famous faces and out of the building every time they want another G&T.
The Oscars even have ‘seat-fillers’ at the ready for when celebs do make the trek out to grab a jar so that the place still looks packed on the telly.
Well, one woman who wasn’t relying on the bar or seat-fillers was first-time attendee and one of the evening’s hosts, Awkwafina.
The Crazy Rich Asians star was spotted on the red carpet with the most genius thing we’ve ever seen - a flask clutch.
Yes, while doing a quick interview for Jimmy Kimmel Live, Awkwafina was spotted taking a swig out of her handbag and it is going to change the game
It’s a mood.
Unfortunately, the clutch doesn't belong to Awkwafina herself, rather Jimmy Kimmel’s right-hand man, Guillermo, who for the last few years has been helping to sneak the guests some liquid relief in the form of tequila.
Whether in a clutch, shoes or a briefcase, they've always managed to find a way to sneak their gatt in.
Yes, long gone are the days of taping a naggin to your thigh or popping a Capri Sun screw top in your bra to get your four measures of vodka in - this is the future.
Right, BRB, just going scouring the internet for a flask clutch bag.
