Guillermo del Toro Reveals First Thing He Did After Winning Oscars on 'Jimmy Kimmel' - Watch Here!

Guillermo del Toro is all smiles while carrying his Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture for The Shape of Water on Monday evening (March 5) on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The 53-year-old writer-director told Jimmy that the whole experience after hearing your name called sounds surreal: “The first two syllables, and you go, ‘UH!’ And then you’re going through sort of a hyper-aware reality where you count every step, you see everybody’s pores, you’re aware of the dust floating in the air.”

Jimmy then asked him what he did after the ceremony. “The first thing,” Guillermo said, “the most outstanding thing, was I went to change my pants and my shoes.”

“And I learned that my tuxedo pants have no belt, and normally my belly is my no-belt protector, but I’ve been losing a little weight—a little, a little—because of the stress,” Guillermo continued. “So all night, all night my left love handle kept popping. Under the tuxedo, I was like, oh, there it is again. And I kept pulling the pants in every situation, it was really unnerving.”
