Paige Thalia, a content creator from Los Angeles, has sparked a heated debate on waste and sustainability in the entertainment industry after retrieving rolls of the Oscars 2026 red carpet from a dumpster near the Dolby Theatre.
Thalia, who recently moved into a new apartment, was looking for a rug and found the iconic red carpet discarded behind the scenes.
She picked up the carpet and has since placed it in her apartment, offering an eco-friendly solution to her requirement for a new rug.
The incident has ignited discussions regarding waste and sustainability in the entertainment sector, with many netizens reacting to Thalia's initiative.
Some users suggested that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences could auction off sections of the carpet and donate portions of proceeds to charity, while others pointed out that the disposal of the red carpet is a common practice in the industry.
