Rose Byrne Smitten with New Bearded Dragon Pet

Rose Byrne is experiencing a mix of Oscar buzz and reptile enthusiasm as she celebrates her first Academy Award nomination for her performance in 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You.' The actress shared her excitement from Australia, calling into a morning show to discuss her nomination. However, the conversation quickly turned to the newest addition to her family: an unnamed bearded dragon.

Byrne revealed that her husband, Bobby Cannavale, recently attended a reptile expo in New Jersey to facilitate the acquisition of their new pet. She described the bearded dragon as "so sweet" and confirmed that the entire family, including their children, is "all smitten" with the creature. This new pet has seemingly become a delightful focus for the household, adding a touch of unique charm to Byrne's awards season.

The film for which Byrne received her nomination, 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You,' follows a character named Linda navigating personal and professional challenges. Byrne expressed surprise and humility about her nomination, humorously comparing herself to a "naughty kid that snuck in the back of the bus."
