In the realm of Hollywood, where glamour and grace intertwine, I find myself captivated by the extraordinary lives of these esteemed individuals. Take June Squibb for instance, a woman who has graced our screens since the late 1950s, yet it wasn’t until 1990 that she made her film debut in Woody Allen’s Alice! Imagine the wealth of experience and stories she must have to share over dinner.


As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’d like to share a heartwarming tale about the remarkable June Squibb, who recently celebrated a significant milestone birthday surrounded by her dear colleagues from the past and esteemed friends in Hollywood.

On Saturday, she had a grand 95th birthday party held at a private residence in Los Angeles. Several notable actors such as Logan Lerman from Percy Jackson, comedian Jack McBrayer known for his role in 30 Rock, and Kathryn Newton of Big Little Lies were among those who attended the celebration.

Additionally, the gathering had a dual purpose; it wasn’t just an ordinary event, but also played a significant role in promoting June’s Oscar bid for her highly praised movie “Thelma.” This is her debut performance as the main character.

The comedy-drama, debuted in June, garnered almost universal acclaim from critics and brought the venerable actress some of the most favorable reviews throughout her 30-year acting tenure.

Based on her attire, it appeared that June was in a festive spirit. She wore a black sequinned blouse with black satin coat, adorned with vibrant floral trimmings and intricate white floral embroidery on the sleeves.

Logan, who hasn’t collaborated with June thus far, sported a stylish brown silk polo shirt with subtle stripes, paired with tan corduroy trousers and a navy jacket, while striking a pose alongside the main guest on a couch.

Additionally present was his architect girlfriend, Ana Luisa Corrigan, who exuded an effortless air of style in her long-sleeved white blouse, black pullover vest, and light blue denim trousers.

Jack McBrayer, famously recognized for his role as Kenneth ‘the page’ Parcell on 30 Rock, flashed a wide grin as he held June’s hand. He donned a casual blue baseball cap emblazoned with her name, complementing an open-collar white shirt, a colorful blue-and-green striped cardigan, and tan trousers.

A multitude of rising actors applauded the senior star. Kathryn Newton donned a fiery red blouse with a leopard-pattern scarf loosely knotted at her neck, while The Fabelmans’ Gabriel LaBelle opted for a warm-hued cardigan over a white t-shirt.

In one photo, the Saturday Night star leaned over to shake hands with a seemingly delighted June.

Actress Zoe Lister-Jones appeared incredibly joyful as she teamed up with her partner, filmmaker Sammi Cohen, reminiscent of someone gazing at the moon with contentment.

Zoe had an air of nonchalant sophistication with her black leather motorcycle jacket, standing out against the school crowd. On the other hand, Sammi brought sunshine to the scene with her vibrant yellow jacket.

At a recent event, it was evident that Chris Colfer from Glee admired June greatly as he flashed a grin for the photographs and held her hand. Accompanying him was his boyfriend, Will Sherrod from the same show (on his left), who donned a stylish suit that harmonized well with Chris’ monochrome attire.

They posed together with social media star Dylan Mulvaney and the comic actress Riki Lindhome. 

In my own words, I, as a devoted follower, donned a captivating dress that boasted a blend of pink and red hues, adorned with intricate paisley patterns. To keep warm, I casually wrapped a voluminous, cozy pink knit coat around my arms. Meanwhile, Riki opted for a relaxed beige Shetland sweater.

At the party, Riki was accompanied by her frequent comedy collaborator, Kate Micucci. To add a touch of flair to her black-and-white striped top, Kate sported a tanned leather jacket adorned with lively rodeo sketches featuring horses and cowboys.

In a stylish manner, Chiwetel Ejiofor, known for his Oscar nomination in 12 Years a Slave, donned a sleek black suit paired with a crisp white polo shirt. On the other hand, his girlfriend, Sacha Bertagnon, opted for an elegant tan double-breasted sport coat featuring peaked lapels.

Actress Beth Grant paired a vibrant fuchsia sweater against a thick, black cardigan and black pinstripe trousers in her ensemble.

Although many actors attended June’s 95th birthday bash, there were also several notable figures from behind the scenes in attendance as well.

Among the people assisting June off-camera was Wally Wolodarsky. He wore a fashionable purple velvet sports jacket paired with dark blue plaid pants.

Maya Forbes, who is both a screenwriter and director and happens to be his wife, opted for a laid-back ensemble consisting of a navy-and-white striped shirt and dark denim jeans paired with black leather boots.

I had the pleasure of snapping a picture with movie producer Ron Yerxa, the man behind the scenes who, alongside Albert Berger, brought the film Nebraska to life.

The Alexander Payne-directed drama-comedy, highly praised by critics, led to June receiving an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. This recognition significantly boosted the visibility of her future film roles.

Squibb’s current Oscar promotional effort follows her initial appearance as a main character in the critically acclaimed film, Thelma.

In the world of acting, I stepped onto the stage as far back as the late 50s, but it wasn’t until 1990 that I made my big-screen debut alongside Woody Allen in his film “Alice.” This marked the beginning of a career that saw me grace numerous modern classics with memorable supporting roles.
