Patrick Stewart, is that you?
The British actor was almost unrecognizable on Monday when he donned a pink satin dress, a blonde wig and heavy makeup while promoting his show Blunt Talk in Los Angeles.
“Something is happening in Hollywood tonight. #blunttalkseason2,” Stewart captioned an Instagram picture of himself getting all dolled up for the event.

“Glorious. Well done sir. Helen Mirren, amirite?” one tweeter wrote.
Another Twitter user quipped, “channeling Helen Mirren there.”
