# When Hollywood Exes Awkwardly Reunite on Award Show Red Carpets **Picture this: the glittering Oscars red carpet, flashing cameras everywhere, and suddenly—bam!—your ex strolls by looking like a million bucks.** These high-stakes nights at the **Oscars** and **Golden Globes** often turn into impromptu high school reunions for A-listers, where old flames cross paths in the most electric (or cringe-worthy) ways.[1][2] Take Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler, for instance. The former couple, who dated for nine years after meeting through *High School Musical* connections, could have an **awkward reunion** at the 95th Oscars. Hudgens hosted the *Countdown to the Oscars* for the second year, while her ex was nominated for Best Actor for *Elvis*. Their split in 2020 came amid drama—Butler initially didn't credit Hudgens for pushing him toward the Elvis role (though he later did, calling her his "partner at the time"). Now? She's engaged to baseball player Cole Tucker (they met on Zoom!), and he's linked to model Kaia Gerber. Will they exchange polite nods or avoid eye contact altogether?[1] Then there's the classic Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield moment at the **Golden Globes**. These exes, who split after four years of on-off romance, shared a sweet standing ovation from the audience when Stone won. Awards shows feel just like "high school reunions" for Hollywood's elite—full of old flames and lingering vibes lurking around every corner.[2] These encounters keep us glued to our screens. Who could forget other iconic run-ins, like the buzz around celebrity exes navigating post-breakup glamour? They remind us that even stars aren't immune to that butterflies-in-your-stomach (or knot-in-your-stomach) feeling.
