Hot off her Golden Globe nomination for best actress, The Substance star Demi Moore celebrated the achievement out on the San Francisco red carpet.

The actress told Deadline she was "in shock and awe" at the nomination news.

"Really, I just feel so much joy, I have to say," she said. 

But the star didn't attend alone.

Moore had a very special plus one by her side for the event. Read on to see who...

Demi Moore brought her tiny Chihuahua Pilaf with her for the night.

The actress arrived in a gorgeous black maxi dress by Zac Posen, with her pup carried in just one hand. 

Too cute to handle!

Moore has made several public appearances with her miniature dog.

The 1.2 pound (roughly 500g) pup even appeared on the cover of Vogue, renamed Dogue, in August.

Speaking to Vogue France, Moore said Pilaf was her "travelling companion" and her "touchstone".

"She regulates the heart. She is a little healing, magical creature."

Moore made sure Pilaf was front and centre of her photos on the red carpet, tongue sticking out and all.

During an appearance on Graham Norton, Moore explained that her pup's tongue "does not stay in" because she lost her full set of teeth. 

Connie Nielsen is another star who has had a busy year thanks to the global press tour for her box office hit, Gladiator II.

The Danish actress plays Lucilla in both the Gladiator films. 

Nielsen arrived solo for the event in a gorgeous cutout dress with a tight leather skirt that fell all the way to the floor.

Nielsen paired her look with soft glam and a pair of gold hoop earrings.

The actress spoke to 9honey Celebrity about returning to the Gladiator set 24 years after the first film with more wisdom, which comes with age.

"I think, more than anything, it really informed Lucilla," she said.

"I've felt in my own life how age actually gives you a real sense of power."
