“It’s a party in there,” star Da’Vine Joy Randolph said upon making it backstage to the press room after becoming the first Golden Globe winner of the night. She was right, too, as Hollywood’s party of the year went down inside the Beverly Hilton, and a proper bash translates to an overload of action both onscreen and behind the scenes as Golden Globe winners, nominees and guest mingled inside the hotel’s international ballroom by the hundreds.

Later, during a commercial break, they replayed some affectionate action as first seen at last summer’s U.S. Open by staring into each other’s eyes and kissing. To be fair, cameras did catch that but it was only streamed into the backstage press room as witnessed by and captured by .

By the time the telecast was over, Twitter was ablaze with conspiracy theories claiming that Selena Gomez told Taylor Swift and Keleigh Teller that she had requested a photo with Chalamet only to be denied by Jenner.

She first posed alongside her longtime agent, CAA partner Kevin Huvane, and rather than head straight into the show, a spy watched Streep double back on the step and repeat to kiss Amanda Seyfriend while she was taking photos. Streep also made a beeline over to nominee Annette Bening for a big hug. Later, during the show, a live feed that streamed into the press room showed Streep planting a kiss on another legend, Steven Spielberg.
