Hollywood returned from the Thanksgiving holiday and headed to New York City to kick off December with the star-studded Gotham Awards. Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” picked up the top prize of best feature, while Jafar Panahi’s “It Was Just an Accident” picked up three statuettes.
In London, Cate Blanchett, Lily Allen and Sharon Stone appeared at The Fashion Awards at Royal Albert Hall.
The following night, Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried stunned on the red carpet at the premiere of their new Paul Feig thriller, “The Housemaid.”
At the same time, Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo wowed at a Los Angeles reception for “Wicked: For Good” with performance of “For Good” and the Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland-inspired medley of “Happy Days Are Here Again” and “Get Happy.” Baz Luhrmann flew in from Japan to host the evening with Colleen Camp.
“Look, it’s easy to come from Tokyo and do this because it’s so hard to make a live-action musical,” Luhrmann said. He praised director Jon M. Chu for making films that “can touch the youngest audience member, an older audience member and be both incredible classical but so pop … that are so about inclusiveness, so about what brings us together (and) not what pushes us apart.”
Make sure to keep check back all month long for more red carpet photos from December 2025.
