The actor, who won a Golden Globe for his performance in 'The Holdovers,' became an instant icon after stopping at an In-N-Out restaurant for a bite to eat with his trophy in hand after the ceremony.

What would you do afterward if you won a big Hollywood award? Probably make the rounds at all the glitzy, schmoozy parties to rub shoulders with all your famous colleagues, right?

Not if you're Paul Giamatti, who's become the internet's hero for the way he celebrated his big Golden Globe win for Alexander Payne's The Holdovers on Sunday.


Rather than walk another red carpet at an after party, Giamatti was photographed taking himself and his statuette for a burger at In-N-Out, just like the rest of us probably would.

It was a fitting way to end the night for a character actor who most often plays flawed Everymen.

Just after the Golden Globes ceremony wrapped up, Giamatti was spotted at a Westwood location of the iconic western chain near the Globes' venue at the Beverly Hilton.

Still in his tuxedo and with his Globe sitting right there on the table beside him, Giamatti quietly scrolled through his phone presumably while waiting for his burger, just like the rest of us.

Sunday's win is Giamatti's third after previous statuettes for the HBO miniseries John Addams and the 2010 film Barney's Version. So when you've already been through the awards-show wringer multiple times, you might as well celebrate with a cheeseburger, right?

On social media, people loved Giamatti's relatable post-Globes In-N-Out celebration.





Going to In-N-Out Burger after the Oscars is something of a tradition—everyone from Ang Lee to Dame Hellen Mirren has been spotted scarfing burgers after Hollywood's biggest night.

With Giamatti now heavily favored to win the Best Actor Oscar following his Globe victory, the In-N-Out by the Dolby Theatre might want to roll out a red carpet of its own

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.

State Department Slammed After Requiring Visa Applicants To Make All Social Media Posts Public For Vetting

The State Department is facing harsh criticism after it announced that anyone applying for an F, M, or J nonimmigrant visa will need to disclose all social media profiles from the last five years, requiring that all applicants set their posts to public so they can be properly vetted by its agents.

The agency said the new rules are part of a new screening process aimed at identifying individuals who may pose a threat to U.S. national security. According to the department, failure to comply could result in a denial, and consular officers have been instructed to flag signs of “hostility” toward the U.S.—though the criteria for such determinations remain vague.
