New York City was the place to be this week, but it was a rare family moment that truly stole the show! Julia Roberts and her niece Emma Roberts turned heads on Sept. at the Veuve Clicquot x Simon Porte Jacquemus event held at the iconic Central Park Boathouse.
The duo took “family resemblance” to a whole new level, twinning with matching fiery red hair that had fans on social media buzzing. TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) were flooded with side-by-side shots of the two, with one fan commenting, “The Roberts genes are simply elite!”
But the Roberts women weren’t the only ones making waves in the Big Apple. The city was practically a playground for the A-list.
Romance and Red Carpets
Just a few days earlier, on Sept. , Zoë Kravitz and Harry Styles continued to fuel romance rumors. The pair was spotted stepping out hand-in-hand, keeping it cool in shades as they navigated the N.Y.C. streets.
Meanwhile, over at the season world premiere of The Morning Show, costars Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Marion Cotillard shared a sweet embrace on the red carpet. Aniston looked effortlessly sleek, while fellow cast members Karen Pittman, Nicole Beharie, and Jon Hamm (with wife Anna Osceola) added to the night’s high-wattage star power.
Broadway Babies and Royal Duties
Broadway fans got a major treat as Leslie Odom Jr. made his triumphant return to the role that made him a household name. He stepped back into the shoes of Aaron Burr in Hamilton, smiling alongside costars Trey Curtis and Morgan Anita Wood. Backstage, Mariska Hargitay was seen treating her daughter, Amaya Josephine Hermann, to a special behind-the-scenes visit.
Across the pond, Prince Harry stayed busy with his philanthropic efforts. On Sept. , the Duke of Sussex visited Imperial College’s Centre for Blast Injury Studies in London. He followed that up with an appearance at the WellChild Awards, where he was seen giving an inspiring speech and meeting with families.
From TIFF to the VMAs
The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) was also in full swing. Highlights included:

And we can’t forget the high energy of the MTV VMAs! Sabrina Carpenter pulled out all the stops for her performance of “Tears,” later celebrating at an after-party in a vintage Bob Mackie costume. Lady Gaga also made a splash, accepting the Artist of the Year award before rushing off to her own show at Madison Square Garden.
Whether it’s a family reunion in Central Park or a royal visit in London, our favorite stars are keeping us on our toes!
