【Ava Fabian Archives】

We've all thought about making flimsy fake VIP passes to get into some fancy party,Ava Fabian Archives right?

Well, Crazy Rich Asiansdirector Jon M. Chu actually did it once, sneaking into his first ever Oscars with a fake pass he made himself.

The director of the celebrated rom-com posted a delightful collection of photos and selfies from Sunday's Academy Awards, to which he was legitimately invited this time, along with the film's stars Constance Wu, Michelle Yeoh, Awkwafina, Henry Golding, and Gemma Chan.

Chu included a little nostalgic tale from his first Oscars in 2001, which he cleverly snuck into.

"The first @theacademy Awards I ever went to was in 2001 when I made a fake pass and snuck in," he captioned the post.

"I watched the whole show from backstage. What an honor to be there with @constancewu @michelleyeoh_official @awkwafina @henrygolding and @gemma_chan celebrating a year that we will never forget."

Honestly, while we love the cast and Chu's selfies with The Favorite's best actress winner Olivia Colman and best supporting actress nominee Emma Stone, we're keen to see photos of that fake Oscars backstage pass for uh, journalistic curiosity...

Although Crazy Rich Asianslanded two Golden Globe nominations, the film was sadly snubbed at the Oscars. Nonetheless, Chu and the film's stars shone bright at Sunday's ceremony, and hey, there's all that critical acclaim and box office success they can fall back on.
