HOLLYWOOD, CA – In a plot twist more shocking than anything Hollywood screenwriters could dream up, Mikey Madison is now an Oscar-winning actress—yes, you read that right! The 25-year-old starlet snatched the Academy Award for Best Actress at the 2025 Oscars on Sunday night, leaving seasoned veterans like Demi Moore staring at the stage in stunned silence.

The ceremony, held at the Dolby Theatre, saw Mikey winning for her role in Anora, a film that, up until this moment, many people were probably Googling out of sheer confusion. She defeated absolute powerhouses including The Substance’s Demi Moore, Wicked’s Cynthia Erivo, Emilia Perez’s Karla Sofia Gascón, and I’m Still Here’s Fernanda Torres—all of whom were likely rehearsing their victory speeches in the bathroom mirror just hours before.

Demi Moore Fans in Shambles
Heading into the awards, every Oscar expert and their grandmother had Demi Moore as the frontrunner. Even Mikey Madison herself looked like she was about to pass out when her name was announced. At least one person in the audience was seen dropping their champagne flute in slow motion.

“I was fully prepared to clap politely and go home,” Mikey admitted. “But… hey, I’m not giving it back now!”

Mikey’s Emotional (and Slightly Bewildered) Speech
Still processing the fact that she just yeeted past Hollywood royalty to take home the gold, Mikey took the stage and delivered a heartfelt speech.

“This is very surreal,” she said, possibly still wondering if she was in the middle of a very elaborate prank. “I grew up in Los Angeles, but Hollywood always felt so far away from me.” (A fair statement considering that even people living in Hollywood feel like Hollywood is far away from them).

Then, in an inspiring moment, she used her platform to honor the sex worker community, saying, “I just want to recognize and support this incredible community. Meeting these amazing people has been one of the highlights of this journey.”

After taking a moment to acknowledge her fellow nominees, Mikey ended her speech by calling this moment a “dream come true”—which, let’s be honest, is an understatement, considering even she seemed to think Demi had this one in the bag.

And Just Like That… Mikey Madison is an Oscar Winner
Whether this was a classic underdog story or Hollywood’s biggest plot twist, one thing’s for sure—Mikey Madison just etched her name into the Academy Awards history books. And somewhere in Los Angeles, Demi Moore is deep-breathing into a paper bag.
