Kieran Culkin includes gum-spitting, bathroom jokes, and Ariana Grande shoutouts in NBR Gala speech

Kieran Culkin’s antics during his Best Supporting Actor speech at the NBR Awards became the highlight of the night.

Awards season delivered another unforgettable moment at the National Board of Review Gala, where Kieran Culkin turned his acceptance speech into a comedic highlight. The Succession star, who won Best Supporting Actor for his role in A Real Pain, left the star-studded audience laughing with his unscripted and free-spirited remarks.

During his speech, Culkin addressed the crowd with characteristic humor, noting, “The bathroom attendant, that shouldn’t exist anymore,” in a jab at the old-school New York gala vibe. However, it was his impromptu interaction with Jesse Eisenberg that truly stole the spotlight. Mid-speech, Culkin unapologetically spit out his gum and handed it to Eisenberg, quipping about his bad breath.
