Robert Downey Jr. Celebrates His First Oscar Win On Social Media, And I’m So Glad We Can Enjoy This ‘Happy Day’ With The Oppenheimer Star

The 96th Academy Awards may not have gotten off to the best of starts for Robert Downey Jr. considering how annoyed he looked at the nasty jabs host Jimmy Kimmel took at him during the opening monologue, but it didn’t take long for the night to significantly improve for him. Downey ended up being among the 2024 Oscars winners, taking home Best Supporting Actor for his performance as Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer. Needless to say this a big milestone for the man since it’s the first Oscar he’s won, and now he’s gone on social media to share in this “happy day” he’s celebrating with the masses.

Taking to his Instagram Stories, Downey shared a picture of how he’s kicking back to enjoy his Oscar win by exchanging his formalwear from the night before for a comfortable robe, and holding a cup of coffee in one hand and the golden statuette in the other. Take a look!

A happy day indeed! Not only does it refer to Robert Downey Jr. adding an Academy Award to his collection of accolades, but it also allows the actor to plug Happy Products, the coffee company he launched at the beginning of the year with co-founder Craig Dubitsky. Why not get the best of both worlds by enjoying that Oscar while enjoying a cup of java from your own brand? Side note, I’m also quite taken by his watch.
