The Devil Wears Prada 2 has an incredible list of A-list cameos, including Lucy Liu, who stunned fans with her ageless appearance at the NYC premiere this week.

The Charlie's Angels star, 57, looked gorgeous in an intricately detailed sheer black lace dress that featured delicate floral appliqué and subtle netting.

Lucy shared an Instagram video of herself getting ready before she hit the red carpet. While many of her followers gushed over how "gorgeous," "stunning," and "beautiful" she looked, others couldn't believe how she appears to have barely aged in the last decade.

"She never aged," one shocked fan exclaimed. A second said: "Like a fine wine." A third added: "You are still as glorious as you were 25 years ago. Beautiful. Love the dress."

Lucy's surprising approach to her youthful glow is "not overdoing" beauty treatments and instead focuses on acupuncture and holistic medicine.

"I don't do facials. I don't do massages. I just don't do it', she told The Cut in 2023. "I have a lot of spa gift certificates that I don't use."

She added: "No peels. No nothing. I think you only have so much skin, cell-wise, and I don't think rubbing it off is a good idea, but listen, everyone has a different thing."

Lucy also made it clear that she will "never" undergo plastic surgery. "I don't want any pain. I could barely do a Swedish massage, I don't like them," she insisted.

When Lucy isn't busy working, her time is filled with being a single mom to her son, Rockwell, 10.

The actress welcomed Rockwell via gestational surrogate on August 27, 2015, and announced his birth on Instagram.

"Introducing the new little man in my life, my son Rockwell Lloyd Liu," she wrote alongside a black-and-white photo of her holding him.

The following year, Lucy opened up about why she decided to use a surrogate to become a mother.

"It just seemed like the right option for me because I was working and I didn't know when I was going to be able to stop," the Elementary star told People in 2016. "I decided that was probably the best solution for me, and it turned out to be great."

She continued: "I didn't realize how quickly babies progress. Very basic things that you just take for granted. 

"They're just this little lump of flesh, and then all the sudden they're turning around, they're observing you and they're smiling and they're interacting. It's a magical experience."

In 2023, the actress admitted she didn't overthink the surrogacy process. "I didn't mull it over too much. I didn't do a lot of research; I just pulled the trigger," she told The Cut.

"A lot of people read books about parenting. I didn't do any of that. I was like, 'When the child is here, I'm just going to figure it out.'"
