AceShowbiz – The organisers of the Oscars are following the Golden Globes’ lead and serving the stars plant-based food after the ceremony.
The Governors Ball will be 70 percent vegan, with chefs also catering to those who just want vegetarian and fish fare.
Meanwhile, the menu in the lobby at the Dolby Theater before the Academy Awards will be entirely plant-based.
“The Academy is an organization of storytellers from around the world, and we owe our global membership a commitment to supporting the planet,” a statement from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences reads.
“For the past decade, the Academy has been committed to reducing its carbon footprint. For the past seven years, the Oscars show has had a zero-carbon imprint. We continue to expand our sustainability plan with the ultimate goal of becoming carbon neutral.”
The 2020 Golden Globes became the first major awards show to go vegan earlier this month (January 2020).
