Anne Hathaway had a charmingly candid moment at the 2025 Met Gala that left fans smiling—and possibly rooting for an unexpected friendship (or more?). The actress, known for her elegance on the red carpet and down-to-earth personality off it, couldn’t help but blush when she revealed she had been “looking forward” to meeting Formula 1 superstar Lewis Hamilton at the iconic fashion event.
During a quick red carpet interview, Hathaway was asked if there was anyone she was excited to see at the gala. With a playful grin, she replied, “Actually… Lewis Hamilton. I’ve never met him in person, but I’ve been looking forward to it.”
The interviewer teased her about the admission, which only made her laugh and blush even more. “Oh no, now I’m blushing, aren’t I?” she said, covering her face briefly with her hand. “I just think he’s really impressive—and stylish.”
Hathaway, dressed in a dazzling custom Versace ensemble, was every bit the Hollywood royalty she’s known to be. But the moment showed a refreshingly relatable side—because, let’s be honest, who wouldn’t be a little excited to meet Lewis Hamilton?
Hamilton, for his part, looked sharp and suave in a sleek designer suit that played perfectly into this year’s Met Gala theme, “Sleeping Beauties:
Reawakening Fashion.” The seven-time world champion has become a regular at the Gala and is praised for blending sports, activism, and fashion in his public appearances.
Fans on social media quickly picked up on the moment, with many posting reaction videos and tweets like, “Anne Hathaway fangirling over Lewis Hamilton is the crossover I didn’t know I needed,” and “Protect this duo at all costs.”
While there’s no official word on whether Hathaway and Hamilton actually met inside the event, fans are already hoping for a follow-up—maybe even a future collaboration, if not a blossoming friendship.
In an evening filled with high fashion and unforgettable moments, Anne Hathaway’s heartfelt confession was a reminder that even A-listers can get starstruck sometimes.
