'Abbott Elementary' Star, 61, Fires Up the Red Carpet in Sexy Number
'Abbott Elementary' Star, 61, Fires Up the Red Carpet in Sexy Number originally appeared on Parade. Whether you loved her as Chessie in The Parent Trap or just came to know her on Abbott Elementary, Lisa Ann Walter is a fan favorite. The beloved actress, 61, was spotted looking extra glam at TheWrap's "Women of Comedy: An Emmy Season Showcase" event at The Crescent Theater in Beverly Hills on Wednesday evening, and it's safe to say she knows how to go from the classroom to the red carpet with ease. Dressed in a revealing, low-cut top in a bright red shade, the stunning actress smiled for the camera. Her trademark red hair was done in soft waves, and she completed the look with big gold hoops. 🎬 🎬 Walter recently opened up about her friendship with Lindsay Lohan, whom she got to know extremely well all the way back in those Parent Trap days. "It's wonderful. I have always been so proud of her,' Walter told Us Weekly, reflecting on the 25 years since the 1998 Nancy Meyers film came out. 'When she was struggling, I was proud of that little girl who I knew — who I watched take care of her siblings and being an incredible hard worker and someone who stood by set etiquette and always said 'Please' and 'Thank you' to every single person in the crew." Seeing Lohan now thrive as a mom herself, Walter is overflowing with pride for her friend. 'Now, she grew into the most beautiful young woman and the wonderful mother that I always knew she would be,' she added.'Abbott Elementary' Star, 61, Fires Up the Red Carpet in Sexy Number first appeared on Parade on Jun 5, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 5, 2025, where it first appeared.

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have bought a professional sailing club The longtime friends have teamed up to buy Australian-based BONDS Flying Roos SailGP Team Reynolds' purchase comes amid an ongoing legal battle between his wife Blake Lively and Justin BaldoniRyan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have gone sailing! The longtime friends and actors have teamed up to buy BONDS Flying Roos SailGP Team, an Australian professional sailing club, according to a news release. 'We're incredibly excited to set sail together in this new adventure,' Reynolds, 48, said in a joint statement. 'Hugh brings a deep love for and pride in his home country as well as being an avid fan of sailing. He will also be bringing his overly clingy emotional support human along for the ride. Apologies in advance to Australia.' Founded in 2019 by Sir Russell Coutts and Larry Ellison, SailGP pits 12 national crews in identical 50-foot foiling catamarans. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. The club is led by driver and CEO Tom Slingsby, the Australian 2012 Olympic gold medalist, who shared his enthusiasm for adding Jackman and Reynolds to the crew. 'This is an incredible milestone for us and for our sport, having global icons Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds come on board as co-owners of our team,' he said. 'They bring unmatched star power, a love for storytelling, and a sharp sense of humour that fits perfectly with our team. With BONDS joining as our Title Partner and the launch of the BONDS Flying Roos, we're building something distinctly Australian; a team driven by spirit, resilience, and national pride.' The BONDS Flying Roos SailGP Team will make its official debut under the new ownership at the Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix from June 7-8. For Reynolds — who is also the part-owner of two soccer teams — the new endeavor comes amid an ongoing legal battle between his wife Blake Lively and her former co-star Justin Baldoni. In December 2024, Lively filed a sexual-harassment complaint against Baldoni and alleged that he engaged in misconduct during the filming of It Ends with Us. The actress also accused Baldoni and his associates of launching a retaliatory smear campaign meant to "destroy" her reputation, which he has denied. Baldoni countered Lively's initial claim in January with a $400 million lawsuit against her, Reynolds and their publicist Leslie Sloane, alleging extortion, defamation and more.
