Aidy Bryant Surprises 'Sweetie' Charles Melton at Spirit Awards with Matching T-Shirts: 'Told You It Would Fit'

The 2024 Film Independent Spirit Awards are all about the love of filmmaking — oh, and Aidy Bryant’s love of Charles Melton!

At the Santa Monica award show (which host Bryant, 36, dubbed “the Bisexual Oscars”) on Sunday, the Saturday Night Live alum declared her love for Melton, 33, with a very special T-shirt.

After the award for best first screenplay was accepted by May December’s Samy Burch and Alex Mechanik, Bryant emerged on stage in an oversize black tee absolutely plastered with Melton’s face.

“Hey everybody, do you like my shirt? It’s my ultimate Charles Melton fan T-shirt,” the host said. “It’s got all my fave Charles moments on it, you know, like Riverdale, May December… As I mentioned Charles is actually here tonight — Charles, do you like my shirt?”

The camera then cut to Melton in the audience, who, not-so-coincidentally, was wearing a nearly identical shirt — only his was covered with photos of Bryant’s face.

“Oh my gosh, wait, you have a T-shirt of me?” the SNL alum asked. “And it has all my best moments on it? Me as a screaming woman, me as a chicken in a bonnet and me as vacation braids Ted Cruz?”

“I told you it would fit you, you big sweetie,” she added, and Melton blurted out: “I love you.”

Bryant — trying not to laugh — flirted, “I’ll see you later then, baby,” before resuming her hosting duties.

“Alright, I guess we have to do this stupid award show or whatever,” she joked.

At the Spirit Awards, Melton was nominated for best supporting performance for his role in May December, but was ultimately beat out by The Holdovers' Da'Vine Joy Randolph.

Reflecting on his awards-season run earlier this month, Melton told PEOPLE, “The moments that I’ve had and the words I’ve shared with people along this journey. . . that is what matters.”

“If I’m thinking about this or whatever may come, then I’m not really existing in the moment,” he added.
