The billionaire businessman, 59, and his glamorous partner Lauren, 54, who became engaged in May 2023 while they were traveling on his $500 million superyacht, put on a loved-up display as they posed for a sweet snap together.

Meanwhile, Kristen Stewart and Lily Rose Depp couldn't contain their laughter while catching up at the party.

They joined stars such as Joan Collins, Robert De Niro and Usher ahead of the award ceremony on Sunday.

Kristen wowed in a black and white-colored, bralette top as well as a pair of white shorts from the luxurious brand that contained a black trim around the waist.

The Love Lies Bleeding star layered the look with a sheer, black blouse which she chose to leave unbuttoned at the front.

Stewart additionally wore a pair of black, ankle boots that offered an edgy flare, and also added a silver-chained necklace as well as flashy rings for a final touch.

Her dark locks were partially combed back away from her face, allowing loose strands to gently fall onto her forehead.

Lily-Rose Depp showed off her toned figure in a strapless, pink cropped top that had a row of stylish buttons at the front.

The Idol star also slipped into a low-waisted skirt that contained various hues, such as black, white, yellow and pink.

The daughter of actor Johnny Depp donned open-toed, black heels that were secured with straps that wrapped around her ankles.

She held a small, black Chanel purse in her hand while flaunting her outfit during the photo session.

Depp's hair was pulled back into a sleek up do, easily revealing a pair of mini, silver earrings as well as a dainty necklace.

With just a few days to go until the 96th Academy Awards on Sunday , the show's producers are feeling good about what they´ve put together.

The nominees are some of the best the Oscars have seen, including some true blockbusters like Oppenheimer and Barbie.

Ryan Gosling is singing 'I'm Just Ken' during the show, as well as presenting along with stars like Charlize Theron and Melissa McCarthy .

There will be a live orchestra in the theater.

And the ever-reliable Jimmy Kimmel is back to host the proceedings for the fourth time.

'We're really excited about this year,' said Kimmel's wife Molly McNearney, who is executive producing the show for the fourth time.

'It's a phenomenal year of movies. And we have great movies that the home audience is familiar with, which makes our jobs easier.'

The producers were hired earlier than usual , meaning they´ve had more time to plan and study past Oscars broadcasts to try to home in on what works and what doesn't.

One thing they´ve learned is that if the room is laughing, the audience at home is usually laughing too.

McNearney said that they're focusing on jokes over big, highly produced comedy bits. Kimmel will do his 10-minute monologue to kick off the show and will be sprinkled throughout.

'I think an evening that just makes people feel good is a win,' McNearney said.

'Our job as producers is to keep that feeling good moving quickly because it is a long show and we want to make sure people are staying throughout.'

Another thing that works: When the speeches are good and people feel invested in the winners.
