ANNA Wintour showed there’s no bad blood when it comes to how she was portrayed in the hit 2006 film The Devil Wears Prada as she teamed up with leading lady Anne Hathaway during Sunday night’s Oscars.
Attending the 98th annual awards bash, which was held at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre, the former Vogue Editor-In-Chief took to the stage to present the Best Costume Design gong alongside Anne.
The Devil Wears Prada famously featured Meryl Streep in a role as a scathing magazine editor – which was largely inspired by Wintour’s professional reputation.
And while the film, which was based on the 2003 novel of the same name, didn’t paint the character in a glimmering light, it seems Anna holds no grudges.
Taking to the stage with Anne, the pair acted out a hilarious spoof.
As Anne spoke about the importance of costume and fashion in movies, and in real life, she turned to Anna to ask what the fashion powerhouse thought of her ensemble for the awards show.
Placing her famously oversized sunglasses on, Anna simply replied: “And the nominees are..”
When the pair returned to the stage, Anna hilariously said “Thank you Emily” while addressing Anne.
The moment was a nod to the film’s character Emily, who is the long-suffering assistant to Meryl Streep, portrayed with Emily Blunt.
Despite it being widely accepted that Meryl’s role was based on Anna and her reign at Vogue, the latter failed to share her thoughts on the movie for almost a decade.

In 2025, she finally revealed her thoughts on the film.
She said: “I found it highly enjoyable. It was very funny. Miuccia [Prada] and I talk about it a lot, and I say to her: ‘Well, it was really good for you.’“
Anna added that the film “had a lot of humour to it.”
She said: “It had a lot of wit. It had Meryl Streep. I mean, it was Emily Blunt, [and] they were all amazing. In the end, I thought it was a fair shot.”
The Oscars crossover comes as Anne is fronting a sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, two decades on from its release.
Filming the second movie last year, it is set to be released in May.
