Don't get us wrong, we love the glamour of Oscars night and all the glitz and glamour of the celebrities and the statement speeches. It would be rude not to stay up till ridiculous o'clock to watch, but we'd be lying if we said our highlight isn't always those really awkward moments.
You know, those inevitable occurrences that provide memes for days?
Check out the most hilarious awkward moments from the 2018 Oscars below:
Matthew McConaughey's 'I'M AN EIGHT' moment

THAT unreciprocated kiss
We'll never unsee the kiss-that-wasn't-quite-a-kiss as Blade Runner 2049 picked up Best Visual Effects.
Taraji P. Henson seemingly throws Ryan Seacrest shade
The Hidden Figures actress appeared to take a dig at Ryan, who was shunned by many stars on the red carpet due to allegations of sexual misconduct. Touching the E! presenter on the chin, she said, "The universe has a way of taking care of taking care of good people, you know what I mean?"
Jimmy Kimmel brings up envelope gate
It was always going to be the elephant in the room. Joking about that 2017 Moonlight moment, the host said, "This year when you hear your name called, don't get up right away. Just give us a minute. We don't want another 'thing'. Last year, about a week before the show the producers asked me if I wanted to do some comedy with the accountants and I said 'No, I don't want to do comedy with the accountants.' So then the accountants went ahead and did comedy on their own."
Actually, EVERYTHING about Jennifer Lawrence
The wine, the chair-climbing; Jennifer reached new levels of relatable.
She even tried to fly
Well, if it's good enough for Ansel...
Oh, and Jennifer Lawrence winding Emma Stone up about it
Brilliant.
Daniel Kaluuya shuts down a red carpet reporter
Daniel didn't take too kindly to one interviewer claiming Get Out received nominations because it 'raises important themes' and 'ticks a lot of boxes.' He replied back, "We're not boxes though, articulating black experience isn't a box. We're articulating our truth, we're human beings."
Tiffany Haddish jumps the red carpet rope to say hi to Meryl Streep
Variety reporter Elizabeth Wagmeister caught the moment on camera, tweeting, "I spotted @TiffanyHaddish jumping over a red carpet rope to fangirl over Meryl Streep. That is all."
Ansel Elgort jumps for literally no reason
He did jumped multiple times on the red carpet!

This year was the 90th anniversary of the awards show, hosted by TV host Jimmy Kimmel for the second time.
During the ceremony he took to the stage said, "I want to take a moment to thank the people who actually go to see the movies you make." He then went on to gather some of the biggest names in the industry and take them to surprise some movie-goers at a nearby cinema.
Their reaction was fantastic as they were showered with treats of hot dogs and chocolate from film stars.
