Anne Hathaway appeared in high spirits on Tuesday as she prepared to watch her beloved team Arsenal take on PSG.
The Hollywood actress, 42, posed in the team’s red shirt, with a cream and orange New York jacket on top.
Anne accessorised with stylish shades and a cap, and captioned the fun Instagram post: ‘Quite a Tuesday…’ with a heart-eye emoji.
The Devil Wears Prada star previously declared her love for Arsenal when a video went viral of her celebrating Leandro Trossard scoring against Wolves last season.
Trossard subsequently sent Anne a video message, as he said: ‘Hey Anne, I really loved your celebration the other day for my goal.
‘Keep supporting us, and hopefully we’ll see you soon at the Emirates.’

Anne watched the video with her The Idea of You co-star and fellow Arsenal supporter Nicholas Galitzine, and said she was ‘shaking’ after being left stunned that Trossard had got in touch.
Tuesday night’s Champions League clash between Arsenal and PSG will involve not just two of the game’s biggest clubs, but two of its most fashionable.
Arsenal and PSG have become two of the game’s most stylish outfits thanks to a series of brand deals, celebrity endorsements, and how they dress.
Declan Rice’s side quest as a London Fashion Week model, walking the runway pitchside at the Emirates Stadium, sent a strong message: as a club, we are bold, glamorous, and high-profile.
The Gunners have hoovered up celebrity fans from Anne, to Dua Lipa, to Lewis Hamilton, to Andy Murray, to long-serving matchgoer Keir Starmer.
Before hammering Real Madrid 3-0 at the Emirates, they shared a video featuring an array of celebrity fans: Idris Elba, Will Poulter, Nicholas Galitzine, Marisa Abela, Aurora and ODUMODUBLVCK were all involved. This is an image Arsenal are clearly leaning into.
In an era of globalised fandom, this stuff matters. Anne’s support for the north Londoners has generated countless headlines this year.
Her rendition of The Angel, the club’s anthem, was shared with her 36 million Instagram followers, helping the club reach a new audience.

Dua Lipa grabbed a photo with Riccardo Calafiori – a picture shared by the club – and celebrated their historic win over Madrid with actor fiance Callum Turner, despite previously showing an affiliation with Liverpool.
And so PSG have their own army of celebrity fans from across the world – F1 star Pierre Gasly, actor Leonardo DiCaprio, NFL legend Tom Brady, singers Beyonce and Pharrell Williams, and basketball ace Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Ask Rihanna and she might have split loyalties – the pop star has previously declared herself a fan of Arsenal and Manchester United, while she has also attended PSG’s Parc des Princes before.
It’s a similar story with Kim Kardashian, who has been a guest of honour for PSG while also watching Arsenal and posing with their kit. Fickle?
It’s hard to explain exactly why these celebrities have these associations. DiCaprio has been pictured at PSG multiple times, even taking girlfriend Camilla Morrone to watch them against Liverpool in 2018, but there’s no apparent reason for his connection.
