Oscars 2025: Kim Kardashian Debuts Bold White Ball Gown at Vanity Fair Oscars After-Party
Seeing Olivia Rodrigo and Vanessa Hudgens together was not a want, but a need.
And everyone is breaking free over seeing the High School Musical alum and High School Musical: The Musical: The Series star pose for a photo at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party red carpet March 2.
While celebrating the 97th Academy Awards, which saw Anora nab Best Picture and its star Mikey Madison take home Best Actress (see every winner here), Vanessa and Olivia took time to pose for a photo honoring their East High legacies.
In the photos, Olivia and Vanessa—who posed for individual red carpet moments side-by-side at the after-party event—beamed and laughed at the serendipitous world-colliding moment.
And clearly, Olivia and Vanessa have great minds, as they sported coordinated looks for the evening. The “good 4 u” singer wore a leather halter top black Roberto Cavalli dress paired with Mikimoto pearl earrings and simple black heels.
The Tick Tick…Boom! actress, for her part, opted for a one-shoulder black dress with feathery embellishments. And while their meet-up had High School Musical fans feeling fabulous, it was not the only highlight from the star-studded evening.
After all, A Complete Unknown star Timothée Chalamet, who was bested by Adrien Brody in the Best Actor race, stepped out for a very public date night with girlfriend Kylie Jenner. The Kardashians star was not only by his side for the entirety of the main ceremony at the Dolby Theatre, but also attended the after festivities alongside him.
In fact, Timothée even made a point to chat-up Kylie’s sisters Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner. In a photo taken from inside the Vanity Fair event at Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, the 29-year-old greets his partner’s older sisters as they smile.

Meanwhile, Vanessa stepped out for a rare date night with husband Cole Tucker—whom she married in December 2023—after the couple welcomed
their first baby together last July.
Olivia also made the evening a date night of her own, stepping out with boyfriend and Enola Holmes star Louis Partridge. In photos from inside the event, the couple—who were first linked in October 2023—got cozy and even posed for photos with pals and fellow couple Tate McRae and Kid Laroi.
