BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. − Decked out in holiday decor, the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel was lit up bright and early Thursday morning as Hollywood’s leading ladies – including Adele, Ariana DeBose, Kerry Washington and Helen Mirren – roamed the halls and strutted down the pink carpet.
The Hollywood Reporter’s annual breakfast gala called for an early glam sesh for many of the women in attendance, but that didn’t stop them from showing up and showering one another with praise.
Among the stars spotted were “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” actress (and newly crowned “Dancing with the Stars” winner) Xochitl Gomez and social media personality Lele Pons, who walked the pink carpet hand-in-hand and didn’t stray from each other throughout the event. Gomez squealed when she saw actress Tia Mowry and embraced her in a hug; Lucy Hale rushed off the pink carpet excitedly telling her team that she had just spotted the one and only Helen Mirren; “Barbie” co-stars Alexandra Shipp and Will Ferrell hugged it out while posing for photos; and honoree Kerry Washington gushed about how pretty “Flamin’ Hot” actress Annie Gonzalez looked when she walked by.
