The Oscars is the most awaited night for those in showbiz. Aside from the glitzy red carpet moments, the ceremony itself is of utmost importance with the awards having the ability to make one’s career. And while some actors prefer to arrive solo or with their better half, there are others who have chosen this night to show off their mothers.
Miley Cyrus
Miley attended the 2010 Oscars with her mom Tish as her date. The mother-daughter duo even wore matching metallic-toned gowns on the red carpet.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Leo brought his mom Irmelin as his date to the 2014 awards night. He was nominated for the Best Actor award for The Wolf of Wall Street, but failed to take home the win.
Bradley Cooper
Bradley arrived for the Oscars in 2013 along with his mom Gloria. He was nominated for his role in Silver Linings Playbook and apparently had promised his mother that she be his date if he ever bagged a nomination.
Matthew McConaughey
The year 2014 was a big one for Matthew as the actor picked up awards for Dallas Buyers Club including the Best Actor trophy. He brought his two leading ladies as his date — mom Mary and wife Camila.
Johnny Depp
Johnny was nominated for Best Actor Oscar back in 2004 for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. For his special night, he brought along his mother Betty and his then partner Vanessa Paradis.
Jared Leto
Jared is a family man as was evident at the 2014 Oscars where he brought mom Constance and brother Shannon for company. They both cheered when he took home the Best Supporting Actor award for Dallas Buyers Club.
Brad Pitt
Back in 2012, Brad brought both his parents William and Jane Pitt to the Oscars. He was nominated that year for Best Actor for his performance in Moneyball.
Justin Timberlake
Justin had his mother Lynn as his arm candy at the 2011 Oscars. The singer has taken his mom to other red carpet events in the past as well.
Colin Farrell
The actor attended the 2008 Oscars with none other than his mom Rita.
Charlize Theron
The actress took her mom Gerda not once but twice to the Oscars. They both were colour-coordinated in black gowns.
