Leonardo DiCaprioandBrad Pittcouldn’t help but celebrate after the2020 Screen Actors Guild Awards.
During one point of the night, Pitt, 56, sang the line “pick it up, pick it up, pick it up” in Fatman Scoop’s “Be Faithful,” while DiCaprio, 45, later belted along to Too Short’s “Blow the Whistle” and LL Cool J’s “Mama Said Knock You Out.”

He then thanked his “brothers” and “sisters” in the acting community as well as hisOnce Upon a Time… in Hollywoodcastmates. When listing off his female costars, the star took the time to poke fun at director Tarantino while giving a shoutout to castmates Margot Robbie, Dakota Fanning and Qualley — and their bare feet.
“Seriously, Quentin has separated more women from their shoes than the TSA,” he joked.
“Now, we all know what we do is a team sport and we elevate each other,” he continued. “And I got to work with some amazing, amazing people.”

Pitt also cracked a joke at himself for playing the role of stuntman Cliff Booth.
“Let’s be honest. It was a difficult part. A guy who gets high, takes his shirt off, and doesn’t get on with his wife. It was a big stretch,” he quipped.
“It’s been amazing to me. I’ve met so many amazing people along the way,” he concluded. “Each of us in this room, we know pain, we know loneliness. We bring that to the screen. We know moments of grace. We’ve had moments of wisdom. We bring that to the screen. We’ve all had a laugh at our ridiculousness. We know funny and we bring that to the screen. And goddamn, I think that’s a worthy endeavor.”
Pitt beat outJamie FoxxforJust Mercy,Tom HanksforA Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,Al PacinoforThe Irishmanand Joe Pesci forThe Irishman.
The award comes two weeks after Pitt accepted the same honor at the 2020 Golden Globe Awards — and three weeks before the Academy Awards will take place.
The 26th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards aired live Sunday starting at 8 p.m. ET on TNT and TBS.
