News about Lauren Weisberger

On Saturday night at the historic Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, the 30th annual SAG Awards took place. All the leading actors from film and television were on hand in the hopes of winning gongs. However, there were a number of overdue reunions at the star-studded celebration, as well as the excitement of winning awards.

In Elton John's West End version of The Devil Wears Prada, Vanessa Williams will return to theatre in October as Miranda Priestly. The stage production is based on Lauren Weisberger's 2003 book that was used as the basis for the 2006 film, which starred Meryl Streep as her fearsome magazine editor and Anne Hathaway as her doting assistant. The performance will run in the summer at Plymouth Theatre from Tuesday, July 9, before debuting at London's Dominion Theatre on Thursday, October 24.

Anne Hathaway was seen sitting next to Anna Wintour at the Michael Kors' Spring/Summer fashion show, 16 years after appearing in The Devil Wears Prada, based on the longtime editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine. Andy Sachs, her beloved character from Lauren Weisberger's 2003 book of the same name, would never have been allowed to sit next to a fashion heavy hitter, including the Oscar winner, 39, on the runway. With her swanky brunette tresses pulled into a sleek ponytail and a dark brown leather jacket, the Ocean's 8 actress managed to recreate one of her most iconic looks from the film.

Wintour, 73, the magazine's senior editor, answered another set of 73 questions eight years ago. The fashion editor revealed everything from family, future, and even gave a nod as to who'd play her in a musical about her life. Meryl Steffiep is expected to play her, according to Wintour, as the Oscar winner has already played the powerful editor in the film The Devil Wears Prada. She also addressed questions regarding beauty, her grandchildren, (who she refers to as 'Anna,') and her new experiences. Wintour closed the conversation by stating that she doesn't misses the fashion industry a decade ago because it had a 'degree of calm.'

On Sunday, the musical premiere at the Nederlander Theatre in Chicago. Critics snared the musical, with the kindest reports advising that it needs some 'tailoring' to prepare for Broadway and the harshest calling it irredeemable. In the New York Post, Johnny Oleksinski wrote, "Every song is lousy, and there is nothing here that is worth fixing." The show pulled out all of the stops in its production, including rocker and hit-tested Broadway writer Elton John to handle the score, and Tony award winner Beth Leavel to play Runway magazine editor Miranda Priestly. Despite being renowned for its fame and glamorous subject, the musical managed to do something but shine on Sunday evening.
