The whole thing went down last night at the annual Governors Awards ball, where McDormand was celebrating her win with husband (and filmmaker) Joel Coen.
After delivering the acceptance speech of the night (and inspiring everyone to frantically Google “inclusion rider”), Frances McDormand was tragically separated from her Best Actress Oscar when a man — because of course it was a man — had the nerve to steal it from her at the Governors Awards ball.
According to the New York Times’ Cara Buckley, McDormand “set [her Oscar] down and was chatting” when a man walked over and snatched the statue.
In response to the emotional reunion, a representative for McDormand said, “Fran and Oscar are happily reunited and are enjoying an In-N-Out burger together.”
