Top 1 - Adrien Brody frenches Halle Berry

It is a tradition at every Oscar ceremony that the previous year's Best Actress present the award for Best Actor.

The exchange is usually quite cordial but at the 75th annual Academy Awards (2003), Adrien Brody did what no winner ever dared do before him.

Brody made his way onto the stage, dipped and then french-kissed his presenter Halle Berry.

It was a play even Berry couldn't fault.

Brody won that year for his leading role in Roman Polanski's "The Pianist". The actor had researched his part by living on the street for a year. He lost a considerable amount of weight and went to great lengths to garner and keep the role, being a relatively unknown actor at the time.

Many unknowns turn into one hit wonders after winning an Oscar. This stolen kiss however proved Brody had the nerve and chops to cut it in Tinseltown.
