Okay movie fans you know Mikey Madison right? She just snagged an Oscar and everyone is talking about her performance in "Anora". But beyond the awards buzz there's something super cool about Mikey: her family. Turns out she's got a twin brother and they are seriously tight-knit. And guess who showed up to support her at the Vanity Fair Oscars party ? Yep her whole amazing family squad!
Twin Magic: Mikey Madison and Brother Miles - Born at the Same Time and Totally In Sync
Let's talk about Miles Madison Mikey's twin brother. These two are not just siblings they are twins and as Miles puts it they were practically "Born at the Same Time." Seriously their family story is wild. Apparently during their birth it was a C-section situation and they were "plucked out" basically simultaneously. Why? To stop them from arguing about who is older later on! How funny is that?
Does it work though? Well Miles winks and says his birth certificate lists him as being born one minute before Mikey. Sibling rivalry avoided or just cleverly managed from day one? Either way it is a great twin tale. It is clear these two have a special bond.
Family First: Mikey Madison's Support System Shines at Vanity Fair Oscars Party
The whole Madison family is incredibly proud of Mikey and it really showed at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. They were there in full force not in a flashy way but in a really supportive down-to-earth way. They wanted to give Mikey space to breathe take it all in and just enjoy her huge Oscar win. They are intuitively protective of her wanting to shield her from too much crazy Hollywood hype.
They all hung out together in this cool sunken sofa area at the party. It was not just family though. Mikey's "Anora" crew was there too writer-director Sean Baker and other folks from the movie they call their "Anora court." Someone at the party described them as "friends of the Anora court" and it fits. This group of people seemed super unpretentious and grounded. No Hollywood fakeness just genuine support and celebration of Mikey's success.

Mikey is the real deal.
No "Hollywood Starlet" Here: Mikey Madison is Smart Savvy and Director-Driven
Someone at the Vanity Fair party called Mikey a "bit of a Hollywood starlet" and that is just wrong. It is a dismissive label that suggests shallowness and Mikey is anything but. She is shy but also savvy smart and sassy. She is not about empty fame she is focused on the work.
Mikey is considering some movie projects right now and she is being selective. For her it is all about working with great filmmakers.
