The most unexpected guest on the red carpet
The Oscars are that annual circus where everything shines, from the dresses to the egos. This year, among so many well-known faces like Emma Stone and Guillermo del Toro, there was a presence that no one in Hollywood saw coming.
Dr. Simi arrived at the biggest party in cinema. Not in person, of course, but his spirit (and his products) were there.
The beloved and emblematic character of Farmacias Similares had his moment to shine at the 2026 Oscars.
It turns out that the stuffed animal of the famous doctor in a white coat sneaked into the coveted “Everyone Wins Nominee Gift Bag.” Those bags full of very expensive things that they give to the nominees and VIPs.
From pharmacy to fame
Along with the doll, they put key chains and even chewable supplements. Imagine your favorite actor opening his bag of luxury gifts and finding a Dr. Simi staring at him.
It’s a smart move. In a sea of thousand-dollar facials and gourmet Japanese suitcases, the friendly Mexican doctor stands out for his absurdity and adorableness.
These bags have already become a tradition of the event, as brands see it as an opportunity to position themselves among celebrities.
The move speaks clearly: Farmacias Similares wants to be global. And what better showcase than the hands of the most photographed stars on the planet.
It’s the kind of news that makes you smile. In a world where everything is ultra-calculated, sometimes the simple charm of a doll that just wants to sell you vitamins wins.
