There were many magical moments at yesterday’s Academy Awards. From Leonardo diCaprio finally taking home a little gold man and using his time on stage to shine a light on climate change to Lady Gaga’s incredible tribute to survivors of sexual assault, Hollywood’s night of nights certainly had a lot of people cheering.

It was the most wonderful young actor Tinseltown has ever seen – nine-year-old Jacob Tremblay.
The pint-sized star of Room – who describes himself as an actor, Lego enthusiast and Star Wars fanatic on the Instagram account he runs with his parents – was undeniably the most adorable part of an Awards ceremony that was otherwise peppered with politics.
Little Tremblay’s unbridled passion for his fellow A-listers was evident throughout the Awards season, and Jacob’s family-run Instagram account is winning him as many fans as his own awards (he picked up the Best Young Actor at the Critics’ Choice Awards because he’s a total superstar).
