Before Kaley Cuoco shined as Penny on Big Bang Theory or Cassie in The Flight Attendant, she worked with the legendary late actor John Ritter on 8 Simple Rules. Kaley played Bridget, one of Paul’s (John’s character) daughters.
After Ritter’s untimely death in 2003 from an aortic dissection, his family started the John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health. On May 5, the foundation hosted a gala in California, and Kaley was in attendance.
For the special occasion, the 36-year-old wore a stunning off-the-shoulder white lace gown by Zuhair Murad. She completed her look by wearing her hair in a braid with soft, natural makeup.
In addition to seeing photos of Kaley on the red carpet, the star also posted an Instagram, shouting out her team who put together her look, while also giving a sweet nod to John at the end. “happy girl💫 a special evening wearing a special dress @zuhairmuradofficial @manoloblahnik : happy glam @bradgoreski @daniela_viviana @hairbymarilee @jamiemakeup @lubastailoring (love you John ♥️).
Kevin Zegers who worked with John inIt Came from the Sky, as well as Amy Davidson who also starred in 8 Simple Rules, were also at the gala.
For the night, Kevin posted a sweet photo with Kaley on Instagram, along with a lovely tribute to John.
” It’s been 20 years since we first met. John Ritter was our surrogate Dad. So happy to spend the night together remembering our friend and raising some money for the@johnritterfoundation,” Kevin wrote.
While Amy shared, “Truly all the feels. Supporting The John Ritter Foundation and all they do for aortic dissection research and awareness is truly an honor.”
The Big Bang Theory star walked the blue carpet at the Critics’ Choice Awards on Thursday night in a pale pink gown that most likely made her husband-to-be blush.
The floor-length dress features a low-cut neckline with flared short sleeves. Covered in sequins and metallic embroidery, the bottom of the form-fitting number’s completely sheer save for the detailing.
This is just the second red carpet Cuoco has walked with her fiancé Karl Cook since the pair got engaged in November. On Sunday, they attended Golden Globes afterparties together where Cuoco wore a black dress with similar sheer elements.
Ever since she began filming shows in the early aughts, Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco has figured out a thing or two about dressing for red carpet events. No matter the affair, she always manages to make her fans’ jaws drop then and now.
Case in point, back in February 2016, the hit CBS show reached the major milestone of filming a whopping 200 episodes. Naturally, the entire Big Bang Theory cast and crew came together to celebrate the momentous occasion. When Kaley made her way down the red carpet, she stunned all the attendees with a black see-through lace dress.
Showcasing a sweetheart neckline and sequined straps, the actress’ gown featured a flowing A-line skirt as well. Keeping the attention on the intricate details of the outfit, The Flight Attendant star wore barely any jewelry other than simple earrings. She tied the look together with a slicked back bun, bronzed smoky eye makeup and nude lipstick.
While Kaley’s gown was definitely a memorable moment during the event, it didn’t take away from the sentimental milestone. She told Extra how she couldn’t believe she had reached this moment in her career.
“Honestly, I’ve been getting very emotional this week thinking about it,” she told the outlet. “It’s a dream come true. 200 episodes in this many years, with my family and people that I love so much. We’ve had so much support and I can’t believe we’re here. There’s a lot of people behind the scenes that have made this possible, and I don’t know — I’m just very grateful.”
While she looked gorgeous in black lace, this isn’t the last time folks saw the former 8 Simple Rules actress wear something like this to an industry event. In March 2018, she turned heads in yet another black lace dress while attending the 6th annual Hilarity For Charity event. The unique design gave fans the opportunity to stop and appreciate her one-of-a-kind flair for fashion.
So, will folks have the chance to see Kaley in a similar look again? Possibly, as she’s expected to attend the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards with boyfriend Tom Pelphrey on September 12. Until then, we’ll just have to wait and see … and stare at these photos once more.
