Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci Honored with Hollywood Walk of Fame Stars Ahead of Devil Wears Prada Sequel
Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci have been honoured with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as they were cheered on by their famous spouses. The Devil Wears Prada co-stars and siblings-in-law, were honoured at a double star ceremony in Los Angeles on Thursday. Stanley, 65, looked dapper as he beamed for the occasion, celebrating with his wife Felicity Blunt, 45. Her sister Emily, 43, looked radiant in a sheer white frock, as her husband John Krasinski proudly watched on as her star was revealed. Snaps from the occasion showed Stanley and Emily posing together with their partners after their stars were unveiled to them. In one picture, the pair could be seen holding each other while boasting big smiles as they lay down beside the plaque. Also in attendance was Meryl Streep, who proudly watched on as they became the 2,841st and 2,842nd stars on the iconic walk. Other A-listers spotted include Dwayne Johnson, Robert Downey Jr and Matt Damon. Stanley's big break came in 1996 for film Big Night, which he co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in as Secondo Pilaggi. Meanwhile, Emily rose to prominence in the original 2006 Devil Wears Prada movie. Speaking about her co-stars, Meryl said during the ceremony: 'God. Emily, I feel like I birthed you, really. I'm so proud of you, and everything the fellows said is absolutely true. I can't wait to work with you again, and the best thing about you getting this at such a tender age that we'll have you to kick around for at least 35 years if my career is any evidence, and I'm just I'm in love with you just like everybody else. Now, Stanley. You can't even call Stanley a national treasure anymore because I've just been around the world and truly the affection hurled at him globally, he's just marinating in it. And it's impossible not to love Stanley Tucci. Urbane, sly, funny, bitchy. And generous and curious and so elegant. Stanley has an elegance to his heterosexuality. His undeniable heterosexuality, which is formidable, not that heterosexuality is better than any other kind of sexuality, it's just that elegance, real, unforced, natural, unstyled elegance is sometimes harder for straight men.' Anne Hathaway, Emily, Meryl, and Stanley have reprised their respective roles in director David Frankel's much anticipated sequel to his 2006 satire about the inner workings of the fashion industry. Meryl has since claimed her co-star Anne urged producers to be 'size-inclusive' in their hiring of background artists instead of relying on extremely thin women to play the film's array of models. Discussing the furore on Tuesday, Anne, 43, said the incident had been blown out of proportion and insisted the narrative currently unfolding across social media - that her comments resulted in some cast-members losing their jobs - is wide off the mark. The new film goes on general release across the United States and United Kingdom from May 1, and Hathaway revealed the incident related to a specific scene that she's forbidden from discussing. She added: 'Nobody lost their jobs, in fact, it created more jobs... it's so hard because I can't say what the scene is about, but there's a song that Lady Gaga wrote and it's a beautiful, amazing song. Isn't it better when you see so many different types of bodies up there with that?' Streep previously said she was 'struck' by the appearance of the runway models on set, saying they looked 'not only beautiful and young... but alarmingly thin,' during an interview for Hathaway's Harper's Bazaar cover.
