With the 2022 Oscars officially underway, we've got our eyes peeled for the best celebrity beauty and makeup trends. One we immediately noticed? The middle part [1]. It seems as though the viral middle part vs. side part debate [2] started by Gen Z a few months ago has been settled, at least according to those attending the Oscars.

Becky G [3], the Haim sisters, Maddie Ziegler [4], and Vanessa Hudgens [5] were just a few celebrities seen walking the red carpet with their middle parts [6] on full display. Becky G popped up on the red carpet with a slicked-down middle part coupled with loose waves, and sisters Este, Alana, and Danielle Haim all opted for middle parts with straight hair. Ziegler wore her hair in a low bun with a middle part and loose face-framing pieces, while Hudgens wore a high slicked-back braided bun with a middle part.

Whether celebrities were wearing their hair up or down, middle parts still reigned supreme. Keep scrolling to see some of our favorite stars' stunning middle-part looks.
