Why Aubrey Plaza was furious at SAG Awards
>
Aubrey Plaza’s onstage tantrum at the SAG Awards sparked a flurry of speculation on social media last night about what made her so furious, and now DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal exactly what made her so “upset.”
Although the White Lotus star, 38, has not publicly addressed the incident, a source close to Aubrey revealed that her irritated outburst was triggered by two different on-stage interactions.
The first, the source shared, was a “direct result of almost getting elbowed in the face” when she and her fellow co-stars were dragged backstage as several of the male cast members gave acceptance speeches. .
And, the source added, that wasn’t the only incident that rankled the actress as she and her fellow White Lotus stars took the stage to accept the award for Outstanding Ensemble in a Drama Series.
The source confirmed speculation on social media that Aubrey’s temper was further aggravated when co-star Jon Gries warned her that her ‘tit was hanging out’ from her daring Michael Kors dress.
Aubrey Plaza set off a storm of speculation when she was seen visibly upset when she and her White Lotus teammates won a SAG Award on Sunday night.
The 38-year-old actress was initially seen smiling as the cast took the stage to accept the award for Outstanding Ensemble in a Drama Series, however her expression soon changed.
A source close to the star revealed to DailyMail.com that her “upset” expression came as a result of two incidents on stage: first, when her co-star warned her that “her boob was hanging off”.
“There were a couple of different things going on at the time,” the source told DailyMail.com. First, they told her that her breast was hanging down, which would make any woman uncomfortable.
“Then he was almost elbowed in the face and his reaction was a direct result of that.”
Aubrey’s visibly ‘upset’ expression on the awards stage sparked a storm of reactions on social media, with many viewers noting that her first flash of anger occurred after Jon, who plays the husband of Jennifer Coolidge’s character in the program, leaned in to whisper something in her ear.
The actress seemed to panic for a second before looking down at her outfit and frantically adjusting the sequined ‘straps’ that crisscrossed her chest.
Then, while adjusting the dress, White Lotus actor F. Murray Abraham was giving a speech to the crowd, in which he sent a “prayer to the victims of the Syrian and Turkish earthquake and a prayer for peace to Ukraine and Russia”. ‘
When the crowd applauded, he chanted ‘Union forever!’ And instead of clapping along with the cast, Aubrey was seen mouthing the word “Jesus Christ” under his breath.
Several viewers suggested that her outburst may have been directly related to Abraham’s speech; What many didn’t seem to notice, however, was that one of her co-stars nearly punched her in the face when they started hugging. -scenery.

Actor Jon Gries leaned in to whisper something in Aubrey’s ear, at which point she was seen clutching her chest, before frantically rearranging her Michael Kors dress.
“There were a couple of different things going on at the time,” the source said. “First, they told her that her boob was hanging out, which would make any woman uncomfortable.”

At that moment, she is seen leaning back and muttering ‘Jesus Christ’ under her breath.
That, the DailyMail.com source insists, was what prompted his irritated reaction.
“Aubrey is extremely outspoken and also very sarcastic,” the source added, insisting her reactions had nothing to do with the cast or the show, saying: “She is very proud of her work on White Lotus.”
Things were certainly not made any better by the fact that both Aubrey and her co-star Jennifer, 61, were stuck in the back of the group of cast and crew who gathered onstage to receive the award, even though they both women received a great deal of praise for their performance on the hit HBO show.
When the speeches ended, Aubrey was one of the first to walk off the stage and viewers were quick to point out her seemingly bizarre behavior in a series of tweets.
‘Why was Aubrey Plaza so upset about winning for The White Lotus?’ one person questioned.
Strange: His actions confused many fans on social media when they took to Twitter to discuss his mannerisms.
Earlier in the evening, Aubrey looked confident and poised as she strutted the red carpet in her gorgeous Michael Kors gown.
Later in the evening, Aubrey seemed to put his anger aside as he celebrated the incredible victory.
Aubrey clearly didn’t let the elbow and wardrobe malfunction stop her from having fun at the show.
Another then pointed out that the actress “even left the stage quickly and alone instead of staying with the cast,” while a third chimed in: “She seemed to have liked being up there and immediately ran off the stage as everyone in the cast congratulated and hugged each other.”
Thankfully, Aubrey’s scowl was turned on its head after the show when she was photographed in high spirits as she posed for photos with various cast members.
The White Lotus took home two prestigious SAG Awards and Jennifer, who played Tanya in season 2 of the HBO series, got emotional during her speech.
First, Jennifer thanked the show’s creator, Mike White. She then thanked her parents for pushing her to pursue her dreams.
The HBO series won the ensemble award over Better Call Saul, The Crown, Ozark and Severance.
