Ronan's still on the promotional tour for Lady Bird and turned up on Jimmy Kimmel last night to promote the Oscars and talked about the two other times she was at the ceremony as a nominee - the first time when she was just 13 years of age and featured her mother having a wardrobe malfunction that involved George Clooney.
