Following her Academy Awards nomination, Demi looked delighted during a video call with pals Gwyneth, jewellery designer Jennifer Meyer, and actress and producer Sara Foster, who screenshotted the call and shared a picture on her Instagram account.
Sara - the daughter of record producer and film composer David Foster - wrote: "Ladies and gentlemen... oscar nominated actress... @demimoore (sic)"
In the screenshot, Gwyneth is opened-mouthed with delight at Demi's Academy Awards recognition.
What's more, Demi shared a clip of producer Heather Parry embracing the star to congratulate her on the Oscars nod.
Heather also wrote on her Instagram Stories: "So happy for my incredible friend @demimoore on her well deserved Oscar nomination.
"I'm not the best morning person, but this was worth the early alarm!"

Elisabeth takes a mystery black market drug to create a younger, sexier version of herself called Sue, who is played by Margaret Qualley.
Earlier this month, Demi won the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy for her performance in 'The Substance'.
Conan O'Brien will host the Oscars ceremony from the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood on 2 March.
