SISTER, SISTER: “You’re the sister I’ve all the time wanted, and I’m so lucky to find a way to play a sister on ‘Euphoria’ with you and so that you can find a way to be my best friend,” Sydney Sweeney told Maude Apatow. “It’s such an incredible feeling, because I all the time had a tough time having girlfriends. You’re just every thing to me.”
Apatow had introduced her costar onstage at Elle’s Women in Hollywood Celebration dinner. Sweeney was amongst eight women being honored, the others being Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Yeoh, Ariana DeBose, Zoë Kravitz (who didn’t attend), Anne Hathaway, Issa Rae and Olivia Wilde. Each appears on a canopy of Elle’s upcoming Hollywood issue.
Nominated for 2 Emmys this 12 months, for her roles in “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus,” Sweeney said her success got here after years of rejection. Reading a letter to her younger self, she said: “’Turn that negativity and pain into motivation. Be kind to yourself as you grow and permit forgiveness as you fail.’”
Hosted by Nick Kroll and held at The Getty Center in Los Angeles, California, on Monday, attendees included presenters Charlize Theron, Naomi Watts, Mindy Kaling, Keke Palmer, Kristen Bell, Kerry Washington and Kate Berlant, who introduced Wilde.
Wilde, actress and director of headline-making “Don’t Worry Darling,” also brought up the facility of resilience.
“We’re up against a seriously massive force of opposition that has for hundreds of years tried to rein us in,” Wilde said. “And when one in all us steps back, all of us step back. So, regardless of how much the patriarchy relies on us to chop one another down so as to weaken our collective power, we have now to withstand the urge to play by their self-serving rules and remind the world, and specifically our daughters, that we aren’t so easily manipulated.”
DeBose got emotional when she took the mic. She thanked Washington, who introduced her. The 2 worked together on “The Prom,” prior to DeBose’s success in “West Side Story.”
“She was literally like, ‘Hi, I’m Kerry. I’m here for you.’…Not only did she make me feel like I belong on that set, she made me see that I actually had something to supply,” DeBose said.
DeBose received the inaugural Amyris Impact Award, given to rejoice the impact she has made outside of film advocating for diversity, inclusion, equality and equity.
“Impact is type of what you make of it,” she told the group. “You’ll be able to take a compliment and let it make you are feeling protected or you possibly can take a negative comment and let it live in your heart ceaselessly. Or you might turn that negativity into fuel and toss it into the fireplace of your creativity.”
Quinta Brunson, Hailey Bieber, Tiffany Haddish, Meena Harris, Jurnee Smollett, Wanda Sykes and Maddie Ziegler were also among the many guests. Many wore looks by Ralph Lauren, a presenting sponsor with Amyris and Lexus. — RYMA CHIKHOUNE
