Paul McCartney’s NYC Concert: Anne Hathaway, Cara Delevingne & Emma Stone in Attendance!
On Wednesday evening, some of the most well-known figures from Hollywood gathered at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City to attend Sir Paul McCartney’s unexpected second performance.
Within thirty minutes of being available, tickets for the legendary Beatle, now 82 years old, were all snapped up, as reported by Ashbury Park Press, following his captivating show for 575 dedicated fans at the historic venue the previous evening.
Anne Hathaway, Cara Delevingne, and Emma Stone were among the fortunate celebrities who graced the second night of McCartney’s unexpected Bowery Ballroom engagement.
As a seasoned lifestyle enthusiast, let me share an observation I had recently. At the ripe age of 42, Hathaway stepped out of a concert, effortlessly radiant without a speck of makeup, her arms gracefully holding a chic beige coat.
Overwhelmed by joy, she struggled to hold back her excitement as she watched McCartney play hits from his days with The Beatles and Wings.
The Devil Wears Prada star cut a cozy figure in a blue plaid blazer over a black sweater and pants.
Delevingne exited the unforgettable gig with her close pal Danielle Haim of the rock band HAIM.
In a casual yet stylish manner, the 32-year-old supermodel exuded an air of timeless elegance, donning a sleek black leather jacket paired with a crisp white T-shirt and fashionable flared denims.
Danielle exited through the side entrance dressed in a stylish jacket, a black pencil skirt, and high-heeled boots.
The two women seemed to have Paul McCartney-branded totes, filled with items like a rolled-up poster and other mementos from the performance.
Stone brought her mother Krista Stone as her plus one to Wednesday night’s show.
The award-winning actress, aged 36, exuded elegance in a sleek, all-black ensemble, complete with a trench coat and mini skirt.
She kept her new auburn-toned pixie cut hidden beneath a black beanie cap.
Stone clung tightly to his mother, wearing a black coat and denim, as they hurriedly left the concert together.
Hollywood icon Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson turned out for the celeb-packed concert in NYC.
Hanks and Wilson, accompanied by their security detail, arrived outside the Manhattan venue via a driven limousine.
Hanks looked sharp in a blue velvet blazer styled with a patterned scarf and skinny trousers.
Jerry Seinfeld was also among the celebrity attendees.
The humorist, aged 70, was spotted exiting the location while enjoying a piece of pizza, following his wife’s recent comments in response to Kanye West’s troubling anti-Semitic remarks.
He shielded himself from the downpour with his hand as he made his way to a nearby car.
Seinfeld wore a gray blazer over a T-shirt and jeans for the exclusive show.
As a devoted fan, I wrapped myself snugly in a vibrant coat and a dashing striped beanie, making my way to McCartney’s concert accompanied by my partner, Chris Fischer, donning equally warm attire.
The pair showcased a lively scene for photographers gathered outside the Bowery Ballroom, while they were leaving.
Notably, influential personality Andy Cohen gave a peace sign as he walked among admirers, following his experience watching McCartney perform live.
The Watch What Happens Live host, 56, sported all-black for the exclusive occasion.
Supermodel Karlie Kloss held hands with husband Josh Kushner after the concert.
On an uncommon occasion, Woody Harrelson was spotted in public, donning a blue sling bag over his torso and sporting a straw cowboy hat atop his head, all in honor of McCartney.

As a devoted admirer, I couldn’t help but notice the striking presence of Jon Hamm, the charismatic star from Mad Men, who graced the sidewalk outside the Bowery Ballroom. His bold choice in attire, a vibrant red flannel jacket and tastefully coordinated lace-up tan leather shoes, certainly caught my eye.
On Wednesday evening, McCartney’s performance is a continuation of his impromptu show at the Bowery Ballroom on Tuesday, which he unexpectedly announced that very day and, as expected, was sold out within thirty minutes.
He charged fans just $50 a ticket to see him perform live at the iconic Manhattan music venue.
Amazed beyond words, I found myself standing before a captivated audience on Tuesday night, and with a twinkle in my eye, I exclaimed, “Here we are, back again for what started as just a small concert. Tonight, New York City. Couldn’t think of a better place!
According to Ashbury Park Press, the renowned musician put on a 90-minute show within a venue that seats 575 people.
In a stylish start, McCartney, accompanied by Rusty Anderson on guitar, Brian Ray playing both guitar and bass, Paul ‘Wix’ Wickens handling keys, and Abe Laboriel Jr. on drums, launched the event with a rendition of the 1964 Beatles classic “A Hard Day’s Night”.
Next up, he revived a song from his other group, Wings, titled “Letting Go”. This particular tune had been 11 years since Paul McCartney last performed it live.
Next up, another hit from The Beatles – the lively 1966 song, “Got to Get You into My Life,” which drew inspiration from Motown music.
Among the less common tracks, there was “Let Me Roll It” by Wings, a song previously played during his performance at the 2007 iTunes Festival. This performance also featured an improvisation on “Foxy Lady,” a piece originally performed by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
In another location, McCartney delivered an emotionally charged, unadorned acoustic rendition of the poignant Beatles song “Blackbird.
As a devoted fan, among the treasures The Beatles offered were classics like Lady Madonna, Get Back, Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, Let it Be, and Hey Jude. Meanwhile, I had the pleasure of performing my own compositions such as My Valentine, Maybe I’m Amazed, and Come On To Me solo.
McCartney found himself chuckling as he looked back on the Beatlemania era, feeling nostalgic upon hearing a “Beatles scream” and asking for even more excited yells from the young female fans.
He declared: ‘That was a Beatles scream.’
Before he quipped: ‘OK, let’s get it out of the way. Girls, give me a Beatles scream.’
And on cue, all 575 fans screamed the room down.
McCartney honored the memory of John Lennon, who was sadly murdered on December 8, 1980, outside his home at The Dakota in New York, by playing The Beatles’ last composition, “Now And Then,” during his performance. This song was originally written by Lennon in the 70s and completed with assistance from AI.
McCartney said: ‘Let’s hear it for John.’
Following a three-song encore consisting of Golden Slumbers, Carry The Weight, and The End from Abbey Road, McCartney exclaimed: “We’ve had an amazing time with this – we truly enjoyed it!
