The actress, who picked up the award for her role as an abusive mother in Precious, was pictured hitching up her dress to show off her less than smooth legs on the red carpet at the star-studded event.
Strangely the 42-year-old had well pedicured, smooth feet complete with newly-applied nail varnish, but had neglected to tend to the hair on her legs.
But, far from hiding them away, the actress decided to let the world know her legs were unshaven - lifting her silk dress to give them an airing.It is not the first time the actress and comedian, real name Monique Imes, has revealed her lack of grooming.
During a 2006 appearance on U.S. talk show The View, she told host Barbara Walters:
'I must show America what a real leg looks like … because it's too much in the morning, every morning, to shave, to cut, you got Band-aids baby.'
Thankfully though she did admit to shaving her armpit hair to avoid what she called "stink".In Precious, which also stars singer Mariah Carey as a dowdy social worker, Mo'Nique takes on a harrowing role as the abusive mother of a obese teenager who has twice been impregnated by her own father.
She recently praised Carey on her acting skills in an interview with website Moviefone.
The comedian-turned-actress said: 'She was amazing. It said it all on her face. It said it, you read it, you felt it, you understood it. She was just, hands down, brilliant.'
