Actress Emily Blunt said she nearly felt the "ick" regarding her husband John Krasinski's fashion choice at the 2026 Golden Globe Awards [1].
The comments highlight the public's fascination with celebrity relationships and high-fashion risks during major award seasons. Blunt's appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on April 29, 2026 [2], served as a platform to discuss both her personal life and her professional projects.
During the interview, Blunt described the moment Krasinski proposed his attire for the event. "When John pitched me this outfit and he was like, ‘And it’s a turtleneck,’ I almost got the ick," Blunt said [3]. The turtleneck was worn by Krasinski during the 2026 ceremony in Los Angeles [1].
Beyond the fashion critique, Blunt used the appearance to discuss her upcoming cinematic work. She spoke about her role in the sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, a project she is currently promoting [4]. The conversation also touched upon her return to the A Quiet Place franchise, teasing further developments in the series [4].
Blunt and Krasinski have frequently shared humorous anecdotes about their marriage in the public eye. This latest exchange follows a pattern of the couple using late-night television to maintain a relatable image despite their global stardom. The discussion on the show balanced lighthearted marital teasing with the promotional requirements of a major studio film release [4].
“"When John pitched me this outfit and he was like, ‘And it’s a turtleneck,’ I almost got the ick."”
The interaction reflects a strategic use of 'relatability' in celebrity branding. By framing a high-profile fashion choice through the lens of a common relationship trope—the 'ick'—Blunt humanizes her public persona while simultaneously generating organic social media engagement to support the marketing campaign for The Devil Wears Prada 2.
