The 2024 SAG Awards were tonight, celebrating the best acting performances in both TV and movies from the past year. There were a lot of great red carpet moments, acceptance speeches, and more.
There weren’t a ton of awkward moments this year, but there were some funny ones. So, here are 15 of the best from the night:
1.
First, during the “I am an actor” segment that traditionally opens the SAG Awards, Hannah Waddingham told a story about how while performing in Spamalot on the West End, she actually performed with a dead mouse in her costume.
2.
While opening the show, Idris Elba told the crowd how because this is streaming on Netflix, they could swear, but maybe keep it to only things you feel comfortable saying in front of Oprah. Then, Idris realized he was talking to Oprah, and well…
3.
Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt had a little The Devil Wears Prada reunion and hilariously recreated some of Miranda Priestly’s best quotes.

During a presenting bit, Billie Eilish signed Melissa McCarthy’s forehead.
