Yara Shahidi steps out for the Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams Exhibition Opening held at The Brooklyn Museum on Wednesday (September 8) in New York.
The 21-year-old grown-ish star, who is a Dior Global Brand Ambassador, was one of many celebs who were in attendance at the opening, wearing a Dior Haute Couture Fall-Winter 2022 sweater and skirt.
Here’s a synopsis: Dee Dee Allen (Streep) and Barry Glickman (Corden) are New York City stage stars with a crisis on their hands: their expensive new Broadway show is a major flop that has suddenly flatlined their careers. Meanwhile, in small-town Indiana, high school student Emma Nolan (Pellman) is experiencing a very different kind of heartbreak: despite the support of the high school principal (Key), the head of the PTA (Washington) has banned her from attending the prom with her girlfriend, Alyssa (DeBose).
When Dee Dee and Barry decide that Emma’s predicament is the perfect cause to help resurrect their public images, they hit the road with Angie (Kidman) and Trent (Rannells), another pair of cynical actors looking for a professional lift. But when their self-absorbed celebrity activism unexpectedly backfires, the foursome find their own lives upended as they rally to give Emma a night where she can truly celebrate who she is.
The Prom, produced and directed by Ryan Murphy, will premiere on Netflix and in select theaters on December 11th!

The only role left to be cast in Netflix’s upcoming adaptation of the Broadway musical The Prom has been the lead role of Emma… and now we know who will play the part!
The movie will follow “Emma, a high school senior in Indiana who is banned from taking her girlfriend to the prom. Following the controversial decision, four Broadway stars (Streep, Corden, Kidman, and Rannells), in an attempt to champion a good cause and not-so-coincidentally rehabilitate their careers, head to the small town to support Emma.”
