Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt reached a new milestone in their careers with a joint Hollywood Walk of Fame honor awarded to them.
Typically, such an honor is given to one person at a time, but theirs was presented together to celebrate their enduring friendship, close family bond as in-laws, and, most importantly, their iconic collaboration in “The Devil Wears Prada” franchise.
Blunt and Tucci recently joined an exclusive club of prestigious Hollywood legends who have received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The honor came with the added twist of being a joint presentation, something quite rare since the recognition was established several decades ago. Meanwhile, their stars are numbered 2,841st and 2,842nd.
For the event, Tucci wore a tailored dark navy pinstripe suit with a crisp white dress shirt and a dark tie, paired with a white pocket square, reminiscent of the formal style he has often been seen sporting over the years.
Blunt, rather, chose an elegant, fitted white dress with delicate lace detailing and short structured sleeves, which gave off a modest but sophisticated vibe.
Why Tucci And Blunt Were Honored Together
Both Blunt and Tucci have had strong enough careers to earn a place on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but their shared connection as stars of “The Devil Wears Prada,” along with their close bond, appears to have contributed to a joint star ceremony.
This was hinted at in a statement by Ana Martinez, Walk of Fame Producer, on the site’s official page.
“A double star ceremony like this is rare, and it feels especially meaningful to honor two artists whose work and friendship have resonated so deeply with audiences around the world,” stated Ana Martinez, Walk of Fame Producer.
“Emily and Stanley have each built amazing careers on their own, but there is a special bond they have as stars of both Devil Wears Prada films. Celebrating them together on the Walk of Fame will be a moment that reflects both their individual achievements and the genuine connection they share,” added Martinez.

Speaking about the joint honor, Blunt said it was difficult to fully express just how meaningful the award is to her, especially with so many Hollywood stars turning out to celebrate the moment.
She also praised Tucci, with whom she is sharing the recognition, saying she feels “so honored” that they are receiving their Hollywood Walk of Fame stars together.
“We spend far too much time together, and now we’re going to spend more time together as people trample over us, but that’s fine,” the actress said per Variety.
Off-screen, Blunt and Tucci share a close bond as in-laws, after Tucci married Blunt’s sister, Felicity Blunt. As a result, the event became a true family affair for the duo, adding an extra layer of meaning to the celebration.
