The 2023 Oscars Were Full Of Wholesome Moments, And Here Are Some That I Just Can't Stop Thinking About
This year the Oscars gave us all the feels with some of the sweetest moments, whether stars made history with their first Oscar win or gave really cute shoutouts to family and friends. Here are some of the best wholesome moments:
1.Angela Bassett showed us she is genuinely QUEEN MOTHER when the camera caught her comforting Austin Butler by holding his hands.
