Randolph, who swept most of the precursor awards ceremonies leading up the Oscar, was the surest of sure things on Sunday.
Da’Vine Joy Randolph accepts the award for best performance by an actress in a supporting role for “The Holdovers” during the Oscars on Sunday, March 10, 2024, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Da’Vine Joy Randolph took home the first Oscar of the night on Sunday, winning best supporting actress for her role in “The Holdovers” as the Still, she broke into tears as Lupita N’Yongo introduced her as a nominee, and the tears flowed more after her costar Paul Giamatti walked her to the stage.
“God is so good. God is so good,” Randolph said as she clutched the golden statuette. “You know, I think I wasn’t supposed to be doing this as a career. I started off as a singer. And my mother said, ‘Go across that street to that theater dept, there’s something for you there.’” Randolph thanked her mother and others who helped her as her career slowly built to this moment. She made a special point to thank her publicist, saying, “You don’t have a publicist like I have a publicist.”“You know you forgot to mention your publicist’s name,” he said as Randolph beamed from her seat. “I think your publicist needs a publicist.”
Kimmel added that for her role as a grief-stricken cook at a New England boarding school, Randolph had to learn how to smoke. After director Alexander Payne sent her fake cigarettes to practice on. Randolph, Kimmel noted, didn’t think they were real enough, she practiced with actual cigarettes.
