The Rock
I thought he had on a scrunched up shirt under there for a second, until I realized that's his tattoo. I like this on him a lot. His styling went through a really awful patch for a while, but it's evening out again. I do think he needs socks? I know this is a weird bugaboo I have, but I think when the pants themselves aren't trying to be stylishly ankle-length, that's when the lack of sock gets me? I think? I also just like a sock on a gent, I guess.
Sarah Shahi
Well, this is joyless. (The outfit; she did smile in some of the photos. I wouldn't have blamed her if she hadn't. For one thing, she is definitely wearing the wrong lipstick.)
Odelya Halevi
You get a cape, and you get a cape, and you get a cape! I wish Sarah Shahi had gotten a cape.
Quintessa Swindell
This is good. Very cool, and deceptively simple. I could do with some funky bracelets?
Keely Shaye Smith and Pierce Brosnan
A dashing couple! The problem is, I wish he was playing his Mamma Mia character in every movie. Not because that character is so great, but because Pierce Brosnan gamely putting his heart into singing ABBA when he doesn't REALLY have the chops was so charming to me. He could pop in real quick here for a Dancing Queen reprise, right?
Ashleigh Murray
You might recall Ashley from playing Josie (of "and the Pussycats") on Riverdale. The coif is different. The dress is EXCELLENT.
Aldis Hodge
The problem for The Rock is that he is not this cool. (It's not a real problem. It's just that I bet he not used to NOT being the coolest person in the room, but tonight he is not. Aldis looks super.)
Emma Ishta
I feel like, at the very LEAST, Instagram should have offered her six different invisible sock options by now.
Arielle Kebbel
She posted a video on Instagram of someone running up to give her a boob check on this dress, which is funny. She looks like she's in the middle of a dance number.
Lord, I see so many men do this in photos. Does no one in their lives tell them where to put their hands? Maybe this is just MY hangup, but gentlemen, err on the LOW side of the waist. Rarely will you accidentally grab anyone's butt, and it's better than looking like you ARE grazing someone's boob. If your hand is my backup underwire, it's too high.
Noah Centineo
He looks fine. I forgot he was in this, honestly. Did Covid stall his career momentum a tad?
This is him earlier at the Mexico City event, and he's definitely feeling a consistent aesthetic. Is this the Brad Pitt method of wearing the same basic thing in different colors? Friends, Brad Pitt is high on the list of people NOT to emulate at this time.
Quintessa Swindell
I don't mind this conceptually but the dress seems messy in execution. At first I thought they had an injured wrist, but I think it's just... a bandanna-as-accessory. It must mean something because in a later photo you'll see other cast members have purple ones on.
Sarah Shahi
This is a lot better, but I didn't recognize her at first. You could have told me it was her stand-in.
Noah, Aldis, Dwayne, Sarah, Quintessa
See, there are the purple bandannas. Important sidebar: Is The Rock anti-shirt right now?
Mohammed Amir, Quintessa, Aldis, Pierce, Noah, Sarah
"No shirt, no service," they said, and so The Rock didn't come. Quintessa wore more than enough for them both, though.
