News Awards & Events Red Carpet See All the Stars Bringing the Glam Factor to the 2016 White House Correspondents’ Dinner By Hana Asbrink Updated on April 30, 2016 Pin Share Tweet Email Photo: Getty Images Some of Hollywood’s biggest stars are descending upon Washington, D.C., tonight to rub elbows with political heavyweights at the 102nd annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner taking place at the Washington Hilton. Unofficially dubbed “Nerd Prom,” the event honors the reporters and journalists who cover the White House, but there’s always some star power thrown in for good measure. This year’s turnout includes the likes of model-of-the-moment Kendall Jenner, who made an elegant entrance in a strapless black Vivienne Westwood gown and statement diamond choker necklace; Scandal's own Kerry Washington in a ruffled one-shoulder Victoria, Victoria Beckham frock; and Harry Potter alumna Emma Watson, who wore a red-and-white floral Osman tunic over navy pants (again!) and matching pumps. Comedian Larry Wilmore will be the evening’s emcee, and considering this year's Correspondents’ Dinner will be President Obama’s eighth and last of his term, the roast should be full of memorable zingers. Scroll through for some of the best looks coming from inside the Beltway this evening. 01 of 25 Kendall Jenner Larry Busacca Kendall Jenner in a Vivienne Westwood gown. 02 of 25 Kerry Washington Larry Busacca Kerry Washington in Victoria, Victoria Beckham dress, Stuart Weitzman sandals, Jimmy Choo clutch, and Neil Lane jewelry. 03 of 25 Emma Watson Larry Busacca Emma Watson in an Osman dress and trousers, along with Jennie Kwon and Paige Novick jewels. 04 of 25 Priyanka Chopra Paul Morigi Priyanka Chopra in Zuhair Murad. 05 of 25 Helen Mirren Larry Busacca 06 of 25 Rachel McAdams Bloomberg 07 of 25 Michelle Dockery Larry Busacca Michelle Dockery in a marigold gown and a classic assortment of Tiffany & Co.
