Reese Witherspoon and Leonardo DiCaprio tried but failed, to make a low-key exit at Kate Hudson’s star-studded 40th birthday party.
There’s only one acceptable way to welcome in your 40s, and according to Kate, it is by having your most famous friends around.
Following Jennifer Aniston’s 50th birthday bash earlier this year, she made sure she invited some of the most recognisable faces in town. Granted they also happen to be her nearest and dearests.
Sightings of Reese and Leo were apparently just tasters of the caliber of people inside the very exclusive Pacific Palisades, California.
43-year-old Reese looked ready to party in the indoor gathering as she did a little catwalk in her floral dress outside the venue.
Leo attempted to go unnoticed in his baseball cap, white long-sleeved hoodie, and dark jeans – but we all know Jack from Titanic whenever we see him.
Johnny Knoxville and his wife, Naomi Nelson, also attended the party alongside Kate’s mother Goldie Hawn who came along with Kate step-dad Kurt Russell.
Orlando Bloom was also said to be inside, but he appeared to be without fiancee Katy Perry.
The party comes after Gwyneth Paltrow paid a touching tribute to her pal for her milestone birthday on Friday.
Taking to Instagram, the 46-year-old Avengers star shared a snap of the two actresses with the caption: ‘Birthday yoga and a surprise for my little sister @katehudson.
‘You radiate happiness and make everything fun. We all love you so much. #lordylordylookwhos40.’
The smiley picture saw the Glee actor in yellow sweatshirts and Kate in a white hoodie as they stood next to a large collection of balloons.
Both gal-pals are pretty well-versed in putting forward their mates as the centre of attention after they recently marked Jennifer’s big five-oh.
The three took part in the most expensive looking photo booth bants back in February.
Gwyneth and Kate then paid tribute to the ‘perpetual goddess’ and ‘ray of sunshine’ on Instagram.

Bride Wars star Kate wrote: ‘Love these ladies. Celebrated this beauty last night. Happy Bday JA! We all love you sooo!’
The ultimate trio of rom-com queens created the kind of photobooth we all wanted a cameo in, as they pulled a series of cute faces for the camera.
Shallow Hal star Gwyneth wrote alongside a second snapshot: ‘Happy birthday (last night and tomorrow) to #jenniferaniston our ray of sunshine, example of perpetual goodness.
‘We love you so much and you make 50 LOOK ?’
