Jeremy Strong’s bold fashion choice at the Golden Globes has become a viral sensation, prompting a myriad of social media reactions and sparking a playful response from fellow actress Anne Hathaway. The star of Succession made headlines when he arrived in a striking teal Loro Piana suit paired with a matching mint green velvet bucket hat at the prestigious awards ceremony.
Strong’s outfit was met with a mix of admiration and humor online. Users compared his look to various pop culture references, dubbing him everything from an "ecstasy dealer of Emerald City" to "Paddington cosplay." One user even remarked, "The best part of the Globes was Mint flavored Jeremy Strong looming in the background of every wide shot" (HuffPost).
In a delightful twist, Hathaway joined in on the fun by referencing her nostalgic role as Mia Thermopolis from the 2001 film The Princess Diaries. She shared a side-by-side comparison on social media, highlighting her own iconic gray bucket hat alongside Strong's green version. Hathaway humorously captioned, "Sweetheart, I’m not mad you borrowed it but I didn’t totally realize you were going to change the col… anyway, not important, congrats on your well deserved nom for The Apprentice!!!" (HuffPost).
While Strong was nominated for his role as lawyer Roy Cohn in the film The Apprentice, the award for supporting actor went to his Succession co-star Kieran Culkin for his role in A Real Pain. His unique choice in attire, however, secured him a focal point of conversation throughout the event.
Amidst the humorous commentary, Strong’s departure from the traditional dark suits commonly worn at awards shows has been praised by fans. As one social media account noted, "I love how Jeremy Strong always skips the boring black/navy suit and tie, never let em know your next move king."
Strong’s striking ensemble continued to circulate online, encapsulating the essence of what makes awards shows memorable: the laughter, the fashion statements, and of course, the unexpected moments that bind fans and celebrities together in discussions and admiration.
