Tonight is the night that Hollywood was made for, when the hottest players get into their glad-rags to celebrate the biggest and best of film. With a helluva party like that ahead of us, what happens in Hollywood should most certainly not stay in Hollywood, so we'll be bringing you the gossip, the hype and the hashtags as the night unfolds.

12 Years a Slave wins Best Picture

YEAH Cate Blanchett. We love her. Here's what her best actress acceptance looked like.

03.50
Ellen has already had more than one million RTs on that definitely-going-to-be-iconic selfie. 

If only Bradley's arm was longer. Best photo ever. #oscars pic.twitter.com/C9U5NOtGap

This is not Liza's night. This is what happened when she tried to get into Ellen's selfie :'( We love you Liza!

POOR LIZA. It's just not her night. #Oscars2014 pic.twitter.com/fovJayjbwA

03.15am
The moment Lupita Nyong'o won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress and Liza Minnelli was the one anyone would hug.

03.06am
This is what Hollywood looks like in 2014.

02.41am
Darlene Love's acceptance speech for the Best Documentary Oscar, AKA Lulu's, 'Weeeeeeellllllllellllllllllelllllll'.

02.29
We're going to be playing Karen O's Moon Song, taken from Best Picture Nominee, Her, on repeat all week after that beautiful live performance. Listen to it here. 

02.23am
She fell up the stairs at last year's Oscars, she fell on the red carpet this year. So, we bring you, Jennifer Lawrence falling off things. 

She could fall off a cliff...

Or since she likes Dior, maybe she'll do a Carrie Bradshaw and fall over in-store.

01.49
Forget J-Law falling, ​Lupita is shimmying with Pharrell!

01.42
Jared Leto wins Best Supporting Actor for Dallas Buyers Club. Can we just say, HASHTAG JARED LETO'S MUM.

01.30
So the bottom line of this year's Oscars is Jared Leto = Jesus.

01.01am
The ceremony's not even started and there's a Jennifer Lawrence GIF trending (of course there is). Here's the original Vine.

 

12.27am
Jared Leto has to win - God wants it. 

Congrats to Jesus on his Oscar nomination tonight: pic.twitter.com/GXFKUddXoa

12.14am
If Anna Kendrick was going to channel anyone on the red carpet, she may as well channel a pro like Angelina.

12.04am
He's been in the music industry forever, but Pharrell's still not out of short trousers. 

11.52
Social media pro that she is, Coco Rocha is doing plenty of brilliant red carpet Instagramming - wearing Zac Posen, of course. 

11.42
Liza Minnelli has arrived on the red carpet, and since Jared Leto has set the hair bar high, she's come along with a strong game, matching hers to her outfit. Never stop Liza, we love you.

11.00pm
The sun may always shine in California but the red carpet is getting a taste of London and it's raining in LA. What will happen to Jared Leto's hair?! We've heard his stylist uses pre-boiled sea-water to get those messy waves (no pun intended). A LOT of work has gone into his look.
