Naomi Watts and her lookalike daughter Kai Schreiber pose up a storm at Armani Beauty event in New York City
The King Kong actress, 56, and her model daughter, 16, who she shares with actor Liev Schreiber, were among the stars at Wednesday's event, held at Twenty Three Grand in New York City.
Naomi looked effortlessly chic as she donned a navy sparkly smock dress, featuring a boat neckline and draping fabric with stilettos.
She was joined by her daughter Kai, who had her modelling debut at Paris Fashion Week for Valentino earlier this year.
For the occasion, Kai wore a black high-neck sweater covered in multicoloured polka dots with a matching skirt.
Naomi was seen helping her daughter with her make-up in sweet snaps from the event.
Kai, who is transgender, recently spoke in-depth about how she had struggled 'with gender identity from a young age' and 'always wanted to grow up and be a beautiful, glamorous, influential woman, like Marilyn ' Monroe.
She told Interview Magazine she has studied how people in the transgender community navigated stormy waters in the past.
The daughter of the Ray Donovan star, 57, and two-time Oscar nominee, 56, named figures she found inspirational 'as a young trans girl' navigating life through turbulent times for the community.
'I'm always going to look up to the older generation of transgender people, especially in fashion,' Kai told the magazine.
'People like Alex Consani, Hunter Schafer, Hari Nef, Dara, Richie Shazam, Colin Jones, and so many more,' Kai said. 'It's so great that there's a strong community of us in the fashion world; it's really a doll takeover.'
The nepo baby said that she had a breakthrough earlier this year when working for the fashion house Valentino.
'That job made me realise, 'OK, this is what I want to do,' Kai said. ' I want to be a supermodel. Period.'
Kai opened up to the publication about what she's been doing in terms of honing her craft as a regular presence on the catwalk.

'I've been practising my walks in the kitchen for years; my mom can show you all the videos I forced her to film,' Kai said.
Kai also opened up about her fashion preferences in the wide-ranging chat with the publication - joking she's 'basic, but in a chic way.'
Kai said of her couture choices: ' I love my low-rise jeans and black cardigan. That's my go-to outfit. I love when people have their own personal style.
'If you're presenting yourself in a unique, cool way, people are immediately drawn in and want to know more. If every person was walking around in the same outfit, fashion wouldn't be a thing.'
Kai said that 'the world [is] more fun' with fashion in the mix.
She took to Instagram to thank those involved with the feature as she said: 'I can't put into words how excited & grateful I am for this project. Thank you to the Interview team for the opportunity, and thank you Dara & everyone for making it such a fun and comfortable experience for me on set.'
Naomi said on her Instagram that Kai was 'continuing to kill it' and that she was 'proud' of her.
Kai has received public support from both of her famed folks, as Liev told Variety last month about what he felt was the most impactful moment as the parent of a trans child.
'Kai was always who Kai is,' The Manchurian Candidate actor said. 'But I suppose the most profound moment was her asking us to change her pronouns.
'To be honest with you, it didn't feel like that big of a deal to me only because Kai had been so feminine for so long.'

What Hulk Hogan reportedly thought of Newsom
The press office of California Gov. Gavin Newsom recently posted a meme featuring the late Hulk Hogan watching over him - but the WWE icon reportedly 'couldn't stand' the Democratic politician. The sarcastic AI-generated image featured Kid Rock, Tucker Carlson and Hogan (with a halo over his head) with their hands on the shoulders of a sitting Newsom. Linda told the outlet that 'it would be a cold day in hell' for her husband to support Newsom. Paraphrasing their conversation with Lisa, TMZ also wrote that Hogan was ' as far from liberal as you can get,' and that Lisa found the post to be 'pretty lame' (the 'couldn't stand' phrasing was also TMZ's). In fact Hogan, spoke at last year's Republican National Convention in support of Trump, and the president expressed his condolences for his death on Truth Social after his passing in July. 'We lost a great friend today, the 'Hulkster.' Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way -- Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart,' Trump said. 'He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week.' 'He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive. To his wife, Sky, and family, we give our warmest best wishes and love. Hulk Hogan will be greatly missed!' Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, passed away from a heart attack on July 24 - roughly two-and-a-half weeks before what would have been his 72nd birthday. Hogan had also been estranged from Brooke for years (they did reconcile before his death), and the Daily Mail previously reported that she was 'overwhelmed and emotionally drained' following his death. Brooke did not attend Hogan's funeral with family and friends but later held her own memorial for the WWE legend.

Fox & Friends host sparks red faces and guffaws by making X-rated mistake
Fox & Friends' Brian Kilmeade accidentally said '69' during a segment about James Comey - sending his cohosts into hysterics. The anchor was in the process of slamming the former FBI director when he made the flub. The word '69', in some settings, is slang for a sex act. The numeral he had intended to use was '86', co-host Ainsley Earhardt quickly pointed out. Laughter ensued, as the latter is another slang term largely used in hospitality, when referring to a menu item that is out of stock. It can also mean 'getting rid' of a person or product - a definition that saw many accuse Comey of calling for the assassination of Donald Trump back in May. Comey, back then, uploaded a picture that showed an assortment of shells arranged to spell out: '86 47.' The missive appeared to reference the conservative, who is the 47th president of the United States. Comey insisted he stumbled across the message himself as others continue to use the numerical sequence to also call for the conservative's impeachment. He found himself at the center of the Fox & Friends discussion following a separate post where he outed himself as a fan of Taylor Swift. In it, Comey also panned Trump as an 'elderly, makeup-covered president' - causing Kilmeade to rush to his defense. 'Meanwhile, if you talk about a guy that's absolutely unhinged and lost his mind. He is 6-foot-7. He is James Comey,' the anchor said. 'This guy, who is walking on the beach and sees a mysterious configurations of rocks [and says] "Maybe it's a natural phenomenon - that say 69."' Earhardt immediately interrupted: '86-47,' putting particular emphasis on the first number. 'Eighty-six, rather,' Kilmeade quickly replied, before adding, '86-47.' He went on to own up to the moment by asking aloud: '69? What was I thinking?' His cohosts, Earhardt and cohost Lawrence B. Jones, had been visibly holding in there laughter. Following the admission, the could not contain themselves any longer, each letting out a laugh. Kilmeade cracked as well, but pressed forth with his criticism. He slammed Comey for continuing to speak out against the administration nearly a decade after he ended a federal investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of her personal email during the 2016 election. Kilmeade uploaded a picture in May that showed an assortment of shells arranged to spell out: '86 47.' The missive appeared to reference the conservative, the 47th US president. '86' is another slang term largely used in hospitality, when referring to a menu item that is out of stock Comey found that while Clinton's use of a personal email address to send and receive classified messages was 'extremely careless', but not enough to press charges to due a perceived lack of 'criminal intent.' 'Multiple investigations have him going back to 2016 in cahoots with Hillary Clinton and company to cut the knees out of the first Trump administration, he has not stopped posting,' Kilmeade claimed. 'Well, he's a Swifty,' Jones chimed in. 'What guy does that?' he added, referring to Comey's video. 'Nobody,' Kilmeade answered. Onlookers on X couldn't help but poke fun at the exchange, with one taking the time to 'comfort' Kilmeade following his mistake: 'It's ok Kilmeade! Comey '69's himself!' 'Brian @Kilmeade had "69" on his mind,' another joked.

Kevin Costner's surprising career U-turn after Yellowstone bitter exit and $100M Horizon flop
Kevin Costner has made a surprising career move following his bitter departure from the hit TV show Yellowstone after five seasons and box office flop, Horizon. On Monday, Amazon MGM Studios announced the two-time Oscar winner, 70, signed on to star in their upcoming dramedy, Honeymoon with Harry, alongside Jake Gyllenhaal. The film centers on a man (Gyllenhaal) who, just days before his wedding, loses his fiancée. In the wake of her sudden death, he chooses to embark on the planned honeymoon trip with his would-be father-in-law (Kostner). Glenn Ficarra and John Requa are set to direct the movie, based on Bart Baker's 2016 book Honeymoon with Harry. This marks Costner's first project since Horizon's lackluster box office performance. After a tough opening weekend upon its release on June 28, 2024, the father-of-seven insisted he was 'really happy' that Horizon 'like what it's supposed to look like' on the big screen. 'That's really important to me in this process,' he told Entertainment Weekly. 'Would I love that it would be highly, highly successful? 'Of course, I'd like that. My ego would like that; everyone would like that. But I am happiest that the movie that you and I are talking about looks the way I want it to look.' In June, the Yellowstone alum announced that he has no intention of slowing down anytime soon. 'I don't even think about retiring, because I'll just move to the next thing that captures my imagination,' he told People. Costner further explained that his own imagination 'is what determines what I do, not a boss.' The Dances with Wolves added, 'I've felt really lucky in my life. I'd like to think that I worked for all of it, but not everybody can live by the same blueprint.' In regards to having a 'bucket list' of what he still wants to do with his career, the actor stated, 'I don't have those things. 'I have that list, [but] I don't refer to it that way. But certainly my eyes and my enthusiasms are wide open and very big.' Costner added that he has 'enjoyed life and imagining what I can do, what can I be about and what makes a difference. Not only to me, but to other people. What just satisfies me? 'I go through that whole idea, and you realize it's about time. It's a rush to get to all of them.' The actor has previously touched on his future in the industry, including during a conversation with AARP in 2019. When questioned if he 'ever thinks' about retiring, the Hollywood star replied, 'I really feel like some of the great surprises I have are in front of me. 'As I play out the second half of my career, I've been doing a lot of writing, and there are projects I still want to do.' He further expressed that his 'life is a lot more than movies. I just periodically pop up in them. In between, I'm living my other life.' Costner began his career when he took on a role in the 1981 movie Sizzle Beach, U.S.A. - also known as Malibu Hot Summer. He went on to make appearances in other films such as Fandango (1985) and The Untouchables (1987). Kevin worked alongside other stars such as Robert De Niro, Andy Garcia and Sean Connery in the crime film - which garnered four Oscar nominations. In 1990, Costner both starred in and directed the Western epic Dances With Wolves - which won him Best Picture and Best Director the following year at the Academy Awards. Other movies the actor is known for is Field Of Dreams (1989), The Bodyguard (1992), Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves (1991), Wyatt Earp (1994), Open Range (2003) and Man Of Steel (2013). While Kevin has spent many years on the big screen, he has also taken on roles in television projects - such as the 2012 miniseries Hatfields & McCoys which earned him an Emmy win. He notably portrayed the character of rancher John Dutton in Taylor Sheridan's neo-Western drama series Yellowstone. In 2024, Costner starred in, wrote and directed Horizon: An American Saga - which is set to be followed by three additional movies. The second part premiered earlier this year at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in February. It was also screened during the 81st Venice Film Festival last year in September. Chapter 2 was set to hit theaters also last year - however due to low box office numbers, a new release date has yet to be confirmed.
