Mia Farrow supported by 'very proud' son Ronan as she lands first Tony Awards nod at 80
The 80-year-old actress beamed while glammed up in a cream-colored, three-piece white pantsuit with matching platform boots and a golden clutch purse.
The 37-year-old Pulitzer Prize winner contrasted his famous mother by donning an all-black silk suit with buckled dress shoes.
Mia (born Maria) welcomed Ronan (born Satchel) during her 11-year relationship with estranged ex-partner Woody Allen, but he's long been rumored to be the biological son of Frank Sinatra.
Joining the Farrow mother-son duo was his partner Hamer Morgenstern dressed in a classic tuxedo.
'Hey, I'm here at the Tony Awards with my mom, Mia Farrow, who is nominated. Very proud of her!' The New Yorker investigative journalist gushed via Instagram while crossing his fingers.
Indeed, the Beverly Hills-born nepo baby scored her first-ever Tony nomination for best performance by a leading actress in a play for her role as Iowa homeowner Sharon in The Roommate, which marked her fourth Broadway play.
Ironically, Mia's Roommate castmate Patti LuPone from Jen Silverman's two-person play was snubbed for a nomination following the scandal over her saying Broadway rival Audra McDonald was 'not a friend.'
But Farrow did reveal in Interview last week that her character does most of the heavy lifting: 'Mostly it was me, because if you read the script, I initiate just about every conversation.'
In the end, the Rosemary's Baby alum lost the Tony Award to Succession alum Sarah Snook, who made her Broadway debut as the titular role in The Picture of Dorian Gray.
Ronan helped fuel the #MeToo movement by creating Catch and Kill (book, podcast, and HBO series) on disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
Farrow published similar sexual harassment/assault take-downs on Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, Supreme Court associate justice Brett Kavanaugh, Matt Lauer, Les Moonves, and more.
It all likely stemmed from the Surveilled star's real-life estrangement from his 89-year-old famous father after Mia accused the disgraced filmmaker of molesting their adopted daughter Dylan at age seven in 1992.

One week later, Allen - who was never charged or prosecuted - sued Mia for full custody of Ronan and her adopted children Dylan and Moses.
In his 33-page decision in 1993, Justice Elliott Wilk rejected Woody's (born Allan Konigsberg) bid for custody of all three children and called his behavior toward Dylan 'grossly inappropriate' while also rejecting the sexual abuse allegations.
And while 39-year-old Dylan still stands by the allegations, her 47-year-old brother Moses publicly denied she was ever abused and alleged Farrow had abused him in a 2018 WordPress post.
In 1997, the four-time Oscar winner married the Golden Globe winner's adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn - with whom he had a secret affair in 1992 - and they later adopted 25-year-old daughter Bechet Allen and 24-year-old daughter Manzie Tio Allen.

Kim Kardashian posts heartbreaking tribute to childhood best friend after her death and says she feels 'empty'
KIM Kardashian has posted a heartbreaking tribute to her childhood best friend after her death, and says she feels 'empty.' The post came months after her friend's passing, and the SKIMS founder shared some poignant memories and photos of them together. 4 4 4 Kim's friend Lindsay May died in February, following a battle with cancer. Posting a carousel of images of them together, as well as with other pals from their 'Lifers' friendship group, Kim penned: 'It was just your birthday and I know you never liked to make a big deal of it, but Happy Heavenly Birthday, Lindz. 'I waited months to post this, mostly because I couldn't find the right words. Nothing really captures how quiet and empty our lifers chat feels without you in it. 'I know you'd probably roll your eyes at me posting anything — especially since you didn't really even have social media — but I couldn't go through this lake trip without feeling you everywhere, and I needed to share it.' Kim posted photos of them celebrating Lindsay's past birthdays, as well as images of them altogether with their kids. She went on: 'The lake was your happy place. It made you feel lighter, healthier… you were you. It'll always be our favorite lifers tradition because it's where we spend time with all of our kids being together and get real time with each other without any outside noise. 'We felt your absence this year in every sunset, every laugh, every quiet moment. 'Looking back at these pictures from a year ago, I feel so grateful for all the memories we made. We miss you so f****** much, Lindz. Our world is not the same without you. I guess that's why I hold onto this lake tradition so tightly. We'll always have the lake — and in that, we'll always have a piece of you.' Kim was flooded with messages of support from her fans, with one person writing: 'Beautifully said,' and another wrote: 'love this Kim 💜.' Kim Kardashian looks incredible in busty corset and stockings at Jeff Bezos wedding afterparty in Venice A third person said: 'grief is such a long road.. thank you for sharing her with us,' and a fourth commented: 'I love how you cherish your friends from before fame.. ❤️ so sorry for your loss.' Kim's friend Lindz was the founder of Mayflower Entertainment, which connected brands with partners in the entertainment industry. She'd worked with the likes of Gucci in the past, and other high-end brands. 4

New Yorkers rise up over pink phallic sculpture that 'squirts' from its top
A 10ft-tall phallic-shaped sculpture that squirts liquid from its top has shocked and disgusted New Yorkers. The 'Foot Fountain (pink)' has a flesh-colored foot at its base and features several tongue-protruding adornments. It is topped by a sprinkler that spouts water when passersby pedal on a nearby machine. It is slated to grace Manhattan's High Line Park through May 2026 - but viewers have so far reacted with a mix of shock and disgust. 'This is disturbing,' one person responded to an Instagram post by the park promoting the piece. 'Is this a joke?' another asked. 'Um. That doesn't look like a foot,' a third chimed in. 'I'm thinking the "foot" part of this installation was a last-minute creative decision,' another joked. One user commented on X: 'They knew what they were doing with this... 'It mimics a penis with warts, shooting semen out the top... they added the foot because well ya know can't legit have it only be a giant pink d*ck. 'Imagine the children's thoughts passing on by.' Another simply said: 'Oh it's a squirting c*ck statue.' The artist behind the piece, Mika Rottenberg, has described her work as 'an overindulgent creature from my drawings.' 'It first appeared as a small sculpture while I was doing some craft work with my daughter during the pandemic,' she said in a statement on the High Line's website. The Argentine-born artist explained that the piece was originally conceived for a museum in Switzerland to work as irrigation fountain to water flowers. 'Here on the High Line, instead of nurturing the well-tended gardens, I thought it should nurture and cool passersby on hot days, and share some of its overenthusiastic spirit!' she said. The works of Rottenberg, who was born in Buenos Aires and lives in Manhattan, have been featured at museums and galleries around the world. This isn't the first time the High Line has featured unique art. Last summer it debuted a 16ft pigeon in the same place where Rottenberg's sculpture now stands. The pigeon was meant to challenge the grandeur of traditional monuments that celebrate significant historical figures in the city. The name and size of the bird was also meant to poke fun at the 'the typical power dynamic between bird and human' as it towered over pedestrians and drivers. In his sculpture description, Ivan Argote explained that the pigeon represents the city's evolution and confronts its viewers with the constantly changing relationship with the natural world and its inhabitants.
