Elle Fanning Reflects on Bonding with Kylie Jenner at the 2025 Golden Globes
Elle Fanning enjoyed a memorable evening at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards, where she bonded with Kylie Jenner and other notable attendees. Speaking with Entertainment Tonight at the National Board of Review gala on January 7, Fanning, 26, reflected on the experience with humor and warmth.
“It was fun. We had a good time, I will say that,” she said with a laugh, recalling the event. “Lots of selfies were taken, as you can see.” Jenner, 27, attended the Globes alongside her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, who is part of the cast of A Complete Unknown. Jenner joined Fanning and Monica Barbaro for a series of selfies that circulated online, including one Jenner shared on Instagram as part of her event recap.
Both Elle and her sister Dakota Fanning attended the 82nd annual Golden Globes. Dakota, 30, was nominated for her role in Netflix’s Ripley series, though the award for best supporting actress in a television series went to Jessica Gunning for Baby Reindeer. The Fanning sisters brought a special guest to the event — their grandmother, affectionately referred to as “Gaba.” Dakota shared a photo with her grandmother on Instagram, captioning it, “Only pic I need,” while Elle added, “Our Gaba, the winner of the evening!”
Elle, who plays Sylvie Russo in A Complete Unknown, showcased her stunning Balmain gown paired with Cartier jewelry. She described the evening as “magical” in her Instagram post, highlighting the joy of attending with her sister and grandmother.
The Golden Globes came shortly after Elle celebrated New Year’s with her boyfriend, Rolling Stone CEO Gus Wenner. The couple enjoyed a ski trip, with Elle sharing intimate moments from their getaway, including photos of them on the slopes and a celebratory kiss to welcome 2025.
Elle’s reflections on the Golden Globes and her festive start to the year capture a mix of personal milestones and career highlights, showing her in both glamorous and heartfelt moments.
