King did not waste any time. She simply picked up the already famous Grey suit which Roberts had worn first and then Edebiri at Golden Globes where the latter had won the award not so long ago to be the basis of her flattery. The CBS Mornings broadcast journalist had the actresses, who were actually promoting their new movie ‘After The Hunt’, share a shot of her interview with Julia and Ayo.
In this very lively conversation among them, their friendship was very clearly shown. King was heard taken aback by Roberts saying, “Wow! Oh my God, that is super cool! I love this!” when she realized how quickly King’s creativity and look had already gone. The discussion was all about clothes and King was very open with her likes and dislikes. “I really can’t stand buttons, guys. I am not a fan,” she confessed, explaining her choice of a T-shirt under the blazer rather than a proper button-up shirt.
King’s fashion message got more than good response. One person said the interview was “everything!!!”, but another told that the watching of the communication gave them “full body chills.” And on and on it went, with many remarks being made on King’s outfit with it being called “beautiful,” “flyyyyyy,” and “classy and business.”
Fashion tastelessness did not follow the usual route. Several of the viewers recognized and pointed out the similarities of the outfit with another fashion queen’s style. “I thought it was a nod to Diane Keaton…..nonetheless you all look fabulous,” one comment read and another added, “And a little nod to Diane Keaton too!” Not only did this contrast enhance King’s look but it also linked it to the iconic women’s fashion of Diane Keaton.
Not all the remarks were related to fashion appreciation only. A follower remarked that King should do a permanent switch in her style, “Gayle, you look great now. No more of those same plain straight dresses and heavy jewelry on you!” was the message from one. Another, less than flattering comment came, “I love the suit look, and agree it’s a good look for you, however, you really need to double check your wigs before going in front of the camera.”
The conversation took a funny turn when the official Oprah Daily account came on board with a hilarious proposal. They imagined the scenario of the following: “Okay but when Gayle King finds a man on Tinder, Julia Roberts has to officiate in a grey suit while Ayo Edebiri is the flower girl in another grey suit!” They made this remark based on the conversation in the interview when King first mentioned her preferences in dating apps.
However, amid all the discussion about styles, one user directed attention to another feature of King’s appearance who even asked, “They like the pants but mostly the loss of weight, how did you do it?” The inquiry simply suggested that celebrities are in a constant battle of getting both fashion and their looks alongside, receiving criticism and compliments at the same time.
The focus of the interview was on ‘After The Hunt,’ the first film for Roberts and Edebiri together. King could not help expressing her wish for it to be “their first and what I hope many films together,” thus revealing her thrill for their on-screen connection. The presence of Roberts called to mind her previous characters too, one even remarked that she “looks like she walked out of Mona Lisa Smile.”

The whole discussion has demonstrated that even a trivial fashion choice may trigger a massive cultural moment, and as a result, connect three powerful women of the entertainment and media sectors. Initially, King’s decision to retake the fashion throwback was indicative of her being on the pulse of the last pop culture trends yet at the same time having her very distinctive voice. The sincere happiness experienced by King, Roberts, and Edebiri during the conversation was a refreshing change in the cutthroat media world. Not only did this segment create the opportunity to discuss the film in terms of style, but it also made the audience to recall and talk about it for a long time after the show, which was a great benefit to the movie’s publicity. Her joyful philosophy on life was evident throughout the interview. The conversation even touched on dental health when discussing self-care routines. Additionally, exploring high-tech innovations was mentioned as one of King’s recent interests.
