Comedians, actresses, athletes and more united for a glamorous night in New York City.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, as well as Demi Moore, Serena Williams and more were among those who celebrated at the TIME100 Gala honoring those who Time named “The Most Influential People of 2025.”
Hosted by Snoop Dog, and featuring performances by Ed Sheeran and Myles Smith, those named among the categories of Pioneers, Leaders, Titans, Artists, Innovators and Icons mingled at the April 24 event.
Lively, who was joined by husband of 12 years Reynolds, is among those recognized in the Titan category. But amid the high-profile legal battles between her and It Ends With Us director and costar Justin Baldoni, she was honored for her work outside of Hollywood.
“The Blake Lively I know is a philanthropist and a student of our country’s most intractable problems,” NAACP Legal Defense Fund President and Director-Counsel Emeritus Sherrilyn Ifill wrote in her entry. “Her commitment to filling those gaps—and becoming the most fully informed and prepared citizen—is what I appreciate most about her.”
