In case you missed it, the movie "Moonlight" made history twice at the Oscars this week. First, its supporting actor, Mahershala Ali, was crowned best supporting actor and became the first Muslim actor to ever win an Oscar; then, the movie became the first movie with LGBT characters in the spotlight to win best picture; not to mention the large controversy that you probably wouldn't have missed - "La La Land" was mistakenly announced as the winner during the ceremony.Yet with all the attention that Moonlight has garnered, let's save a little bit of the spotlight for Calvin Klein's foresight. The brand tapped Ali for the latest Calvin Klein Underwear campaign, alongside other Moonlight actors Ashton Sanders, Trevante Rhodes and Alex Hibberts.   Those with a keen eye might have noticed that Sanders, Rhodes and Hibbert were all suited up by Calvin Klein for the ceremony as well.
