Oscar week, ahead of the 96th Academy Awards, is here.
That means plenty of partying in Tinseltown ahead of the big show, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, taking place Sunday, March 10 at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
On Thursday, one of the coveted events surrounding the build-up to the Oscars was The Hollywood Reporter and TikTok Nominees Night presented by Heineken Silver at Ardor in West Hollywood.
Actress and reality star Chrishell Stause and actress and singer Victoria Justice were among the high-profile people making waves at the event in the fashion department.

It looks like she had the magic touch of celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton, long known as the artist who created Ariana Grande’s signature high ponytail.
