While actor F. Murray Abraham delivered a speech on behalf of the cast which ended with a prayer for Ukraine and a shout of "Union forever!," Plaza's peeved appearance had fans gossiping.

Fans speculated everything from a wardrobe malfunction to being elbowed by cast mates as the reason for Plaza's grumpy demeanor.
Several Twitter accounts shared video of Plaza smiling before adjusting her dress after fellow cast mate Jon Gries whispered something in her ear.
The fan said Plaza looked "understandably a lil bit annoyed."

Others were confused after Plaza appeared to curse while the cast congratulated each other on stage.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Some eagle-eyed TikTok users noticed two of her cast mates nearly elbowed her while hugging in front of her and figured that was the reason for the foul language.
"She almost got elbowed and also was being shoved in the back the whole time, put two and two together," one fan wrote.

Still, other fans thought the online reaction was overblown and there was no big story behind the actress's demeanor.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Plaza earned a reputation for her dry deadpan humor while starring in the comedy series "Parks and Recreation" from 2009-2015. Some dismissed the theories and suggested the actress was just staying true to character.
"It's like no one in this video has ever seen Aubrey Plaza," one TikTok user wrote. "That's her entire personality 100% of the time."
"It's a bit. She's an actor," another observer wrote.
