For the big event, Bradley and Lea coordinated their outfits, with the actor sporting a black suit and his tot dressed up in a black dress with silver stars, a puffer vest and white tights.

Naturally, the proud dad was all smiles as his little girl sat happily on his lap during the ceremony, which included appearances by John LegendTiffany HaddishCommonLorne MichaelsChance The Rapper, Jon Stewart and Sarah Silverman, among others.

The duo's outing is an uncommon one, indeed.
