How do we know celebrities are just like us? Well, for one, they get just as excited over food as we do. They like to show off their #OOTDs with a good ol’ selfie. And finally, as if that weren't enough proof, they like to bring their moms as their plus-ones to really important and prestigious awards shows. Alright, maybe the last point isn't too realistic for us regular plebeians, but we can still totally understand and relate to why they do it! They enjoy the company of those who gave them life. Everyone from Bradley Cooper, who wouldn’t let go of his mother’s hand during the Oscars red carpet, to Yalitza Aparicio, who couldn't imagine bringing anyone else to the star-studded evening, these celebs love their parents more than life itself - and it shows! Scroll through the gallery as we’ve rounded up a few of the celebs who took the moms (and dad) to this year’s awards shows.
Regina King
The Oscar winner for Best Supporting Actress brought her momma as her date to the special evening. We can’t imagine how proud mama King must have been to see her daughter be handed an Oscar up on that stage. What’s more, Regina gave a beautiful speech in which she thanked her mother.
