It was an undeniably huge weekend for celebrity celebrations all around. Overseas in Milan, many were attending fashion shows put on by the likes of Gucci and Prada. Elsewhere, in America, stars flocked to two noteworthy ceremonies – the NAACP Image Awards, as well as the SAG Awards. The latter took place on Sunday (February 26) evening, and saw plenty of fantastic style moments as well as some hilarious antics.
Plenty of famous faces were honoured at the annual Screen Actors Guild ceremony, but as always, there were a few projects that came out on top. Everything Everywhere All At Once, The White Lotus, and Abbott Elementary were among them, though an ensemble acceptance speech for the Mike White-created series has been going viral online. In the circulating clip, Aubrey Plaza, who plays Harper in the second season, appears to markedly glare at her costars as they address the crowd.
After it was announced they had won the award for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series, several stars from the HBO series took to the stage. Among them were The Sopranos alum Michael Imperioli, Will Sharpe, and Jon Gries. At one point during their speech, the latter actor appears to caution Plaza that she's on the verge of suffering a wardrobe malfunction via the chest cutout in her dress. It obviously remains unclear exactly what he said, but the Parks & Recreation star's furious face and immediate decision to pull her dress down to hide her cleavage speaks volumes.
Several eagle eyed viewers noticed that Plaza's antics didn't stop there. As F. Murray Abraham was speaking about the victims in Syria, Turkey, Ukraine, and Russia, she appears to awkwardly mouth "Jesus Christ," as if millions of people weren't watching. Elsewhere, some believe she said "shit's f*cked" while shuffling amongst the other actors who seemingly kept pushing her toward the back of the crowd.

Since the SAG Awards aired last night, social media has been having a field day dissecting The White Lotus cast's tension on stage. "She looked like she haaaaated being up there and immediately ran off stage while everyone in the cast was congratulating and hugging each other," one Twitter user pointed out. Others suggested that, perhaps Plaza had indulged in some marijuana before stepping out for the ceremony.
"People criticizing Aubrey Plaza's face during the speech... Usually valid, BUT this time, she had just been told to fix her dress and underboob," someone else explained in the 38-year-old's defense. "Her mind was probably racing a mile a minute." Keep scrolling for more reactions to The White Lotus' unusual acceptance speech, and check back later for more pop culture news.
