Emily Blunt’s Hilarious Fashion Confession on The Tonight Show
Emily Blunt appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon yesterday to promote The Devil Wears Prada 2.

The actress explained how she struggled to hide her reaction when John proposed wearing a black turtleneck to the Golden Globes.
“When John pitched me this outfit and he was like, ‘And it’s a turtleneck,” she told Jimmy Fallon, “I had to compose my face into, like, impassive, ‘Oh, that sounds great,’ you know?” Despite her initial hesitation, Emily admitted John pulled off the sophisticated look beautifully.

Emily confessed that while John looked like Michael Caine in his 60s-inspired ensemble, she generally finds turtlenecks unappealing on men. The Smashing Machine star also revealed other menswear items she dislikes, like oversized dad leather bombers. Her fashion standards extend beyond her spouse, as she’s appeared in multiple films celebrating style.
However, Emily does approve of certain looks, including a classic James Dean leather jacket. On the bright side, John received enthusiastic support for the Devil Wears Prada 2 sequel, which hits theaters May 1, 2026.
Family Reaction and Upcoming Film Release
Emily Blunt recently shared that her daughters Hazel, 12, and Violet, 9, loved watching the original Devil Wears Prada for the first time. “My kids saw it maybe a year or so ago, partly because their friends are very into it,” she explained. John Krasinski has also been tremendously supportive of the new film, having thoroughly enjoyed the original.

The couple’s support for each other’s work has been consistent throughout their relationship, from her Oppenheimer success to his Quiet Place franchise.
“She’s the wife you can’t resent Krasinski for landing because he’s equally dynamic and this guy’s impossible not to love. I honestly think that this self-protective feature of their matrimony couldn’t have been planned, but it just works a treat and preserves itself.”
