The morning after the Oscars, while Hollywood was still buzzing from its biggest night, McDonald’s decided to drop a little post-award show surprise: a peek into what the stars actually eat for breakfast.

And thanks to some cracking reportage from The Independent, we now know exactly what fuels some of our favorite A-listers. Spoiler alert—some choices are pure class, while others are just downright chaotic.

Take Colman Domingo, for example. The man keeps it balanced—an Egg McMuffin meal with hashbrowns and coffee (respect), but with a side of strawberry jelly and ketchup, because who doesn’t love a little sweet and savory mix?

And just to keep things extra, he also orders a bottle of water and a strawberry banana smoothie. Hydration and indulgence in one go—chef’s kiss.

Teyana Taylor, fresh from the Oscar after-party, clearly needed some serious fuel. She went all in with hotcakes (because why settle for a boring breakfast?), eggs, sausage, a McChicken Biscuit with cheese, and a side of strawberry jelly and butter. Oh, and let’s not forget the syrup packet and a large orange juice. That’s what we call a power meal.

Meanwhile, Rosalía—who also partied the night away—opted for a McGriddles (bacon, egg, and cheese between syrup-infused pancakes—basically, breakfast perfection), a mango pineapple smoothie, and a single mayo packet. We have questions about the mayo, but hey, to each their own.

Then there’s Keke Palmer, who kept things on the lighter side with oatmeal, fruit, maple syrup, and hashbrowns—because balance is key.

Édgar Ramírez, of Emilía Perez fame, went for a classic McGriddle, hashbrowns, and coffee—a no-fuss, high-protein choice.

And then there’s Julia Fox, proving once again that subtlety is not her thing. After making waves at the Oscars after-party in a completely see-through dress, her breakfast order was just as extra: a hot chocolate with extra whipped cream, three chocolate chip cookies, and hotcakes drowning in not one, not two, but ten packets of syrup. Commitment to a sugar rush? A+ effort.

Meanwhile, Kieran Culkin, fresh off his Best Supporting Actor win, kept the trolling energy alive by ordering… a single small Coca-Cola. No food, just vibes.

Michael B. Jordan isn’t messing around—his order is two Egg McMuffins and two hashbrowns, with a side of strawberry jelly. A man who knows that one hashbrown is never enough.

As for the Oscars themselves? Anora was the big winner of the night, taking home five trophies, including Best Picture. Adrien Brody also walked away with his second Oscar for The Brutalist, proving yet again that he thrives in dramatic roles.

But let’s be real—the real drama is in these breakfast orders. Whether you’re a syrup enthusiast like Julia Fox or a minimalist like Kieran Culkin, one thing’s for sure: the stars, just like us, can’t resist a good unhealthy breakfast.
