Star Wars actress Kelly Marie Tran shared a photo of herself dressed in a hoodie winking to the camera while her stylist began working on her hair, and posted a message thanking her "glam squad". She wrote: "HAPPY OSCARS DAY! That’s what most people are celebrating today, but I also consider this day GLAM SQUAD APPRECIATION DAY! I think every actor can agree that we are nothing without our glam teams.. YOU GUYS. For real, anyone can look red-carpet ready if they have a team of eight+ people getting them ready! It takes A TON of behind the scenes work, and although I’m enjoying every moment, I’m cognisant of perpetuating an unattainable ideal... That’s why I think it’s important to be transparent about this process! I’m a lucky girl, and I have THE BEST glam team, but y’all know I DO NOT LOOK LIKE A RED CARPET GIRL EVERY DAY."
