Colman Domingo brought his signature energy to the Oscars, turning a commercial break into a full-fledged celebration. Raising a glass of Don Julio 1942, the acclaimed actor led a toast honoring Los Angeles’s resilience, inspiring the audience—including peers and first responders—to get out of their seats and dance.

As music filled the room, Domingo passed out Don Julio’s 1942 Margaritas, creating an unforgettable moment that captured the spirit of Hollywood’s biggest night. The spontaneous dance party was a tribute to the city’s enduring strength and vibrant culture.

Don Julio, committed to honoring the industry’s achievements, also used the moment to give back, supporting those affected by California’s wildfires. Domingo’s toast was more than just a celebration—it was a testament to the city’s perseverance and the power of community.
