Stars lend glitz to ‘Oscars of science’ Breakthrough Prizes

Gwyneth Paltrow, Alicia Keys and Lizzo were among the stars giving science some pizzazz at this year’s Breakthrough Prizes in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Nicknamed the “Oscars of Science”, the six awards of $3 million (£2.3 million) each are given for advances in life sciences, physics and mathematics.

Some of the biggest names in tech, film and music walked the red carpet in Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, lending their glamour to the event.

Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos all flashed a smile, despite a torrid week in which their companies lost billions in the market turmoil caused by Donald Trump’s tariff announcements.
