Kim Kardashian’s Icy Blue Eyes at Vanity Fair Oscars Party Will Make You Do a Double Take

Lewis Hamilton is kicking the rumors about his love life into high gear.

The Formula 1 star—who has sparked romance rumors with Kim Kardashian in recent months—fueled speculation about his relationship with the SKIMS founder following her appearance at Vanity Fair’s 2026 Oscars after-party March 15.

After Kim, 45, shared several pics of her golden Gucci getup on Instagram, Lewis, 41, made it clear she had his full attention, dropping a heart-eyed emoji on her Instagram post.

While Kim was joined by sisters Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner as well as mom Kris Jenner at the star-studded event, the racing driver was nowhere to be found during the festivities. Indeed, despite holding a producer credit on Best Picture nominee F1: The Movie, his rep confirmed ahead of time that he would be absent from the event, telling E! News in a statement earlier this month, “He's unable to attend as he has a race in China the same day.”

But Lewis certainly wasn’t sulking about the scheduling conflict. Instead, he revealed he’s already turning his attention to scoring another invite in the future.

“It would have been great to see and meet people like Denzel Washington live,” he told Italian publication Corriere Della Sera, adding, “It means I really have to produce another movie.”

Of course, being a no-show wasn’t an option for Oscars host Conan O’Brien. In fact, the comedian—who previously emceed the 2025 ceremony—recently joked about his strategy to ensure he arrived to the venue on time.

“This year, I'm gonna use Google Maps,” he said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter published March 9. “Last year I tried to wing it—almost missed the show. I need to be there and show up, and not showing up in show business can follow you for a long time. It's hard to get work after that.”
