Kim Kardashian was channelling the Baywatch icon as she stepped out for her first public appearance with the F1 star at the Super Bowl
Kim Kardashian stepped out with her new man, FI star Lewis Hamilton, on Sunday night rocking a distinctly 90s vibe.
The reality star channelled 90s-era Pamela Anderson during the pair’s first public date at the Super Bowl, after dating secretly for a few weeks, with a fake, clip-in fringe and an oversized choker.
The 45-year-old mum-of-four’s new look, which she has previously tried out for size to the CFDA in 2023, was inspired by the Baywatch icon, according to her hairdresser at the time.
And new man Lewis, 41, must have been delighted as he is thought to love all things 90s, as he rocked up for their big debut himself in double denim.
His love for the decade even spans into iconic 90s cars – in particular, Ayrton Senna’s 1990 McLaren and donning nostalgic 90s national team tracksuits. Lewis also has a penchant for 90s cinema – his favourite film thought to be 1993 classic Cool Runnings.
And his famous lady’s long-term hairstylist Chris Appleton posted a picture of Kim’s new look on socials and wrote: ‘Super Bowl bangs’ and previously discussed the secret behind her clip-in fringe.
He told Vogue: “The look was inspired by ’90s Pammy. It was a much more undone look than we’ve done previously and adding piecey bangs really gave it a lived-in finish.
“I followed her cheekbones for placement. Kim and I worked visually, just grabbing hair and pinning it into place. From there, the key element was getting the separation in the bangs.”
Before Sunday night’s cute debut in front of thousands of sporting fans also enjoying the game between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots, the power couple had been spotted checking into exclusive hotel Estelle Manor in the Cotswolds.
They enjoyed an intimate dinner and a couple’s massage as part of their romantic weekend getaway to the A-lister favourite, followed by a trip to Paris, where Kim was promoting her Nike SKIMS line.
Kim and Lewis have enjoyed a friendship for years, before it turned into something deeper. And now a lip reader has claimed that a conversation between the two at the Super Bowl suggests Lewis promised his new girlfriend she would meet his mum in a now viral clip.
‘No I don’t take just any girl to my mom, I mean you’re gonna meet someday, she is very excited to see you,’ he reportedly said to Kim, according to expert Nicola Hickling, the founder of LipReader.
Hickling told the Daily Mail that Kim appeared to ‘shuffle uncomfortably in her seat’ and covered her face ‘before replying with a simple okay’.
Meanwhile body language expert Judi James revealed to the Daily Mail how Kim used a ‘hot and cool’ flirting technique that left Lewis ‘purring’.
‘Firstly, there is the pose that registers undivided attention between them, which is a form of non-verbal stroke when you’re on a date,’ James said, dissecting their interaction.
‘Kim actually leans back to take in Lewis visually as he speaks and this flattering “stroke” produces a “purr” response from him which is visible in the way his facial features soften and he talks through a smile of pleasure.’
James noted that, ‘Kim adds to the flirting when the tip of her tongue appears at the side of her mouth. This is usually seen as a gesture of playful desire or interest.’
‘But then she seems to switch to a very smart technique of intense interest followed by distraction, suddenly looking away after bathing Lewis in her interested gaze.’
‘She even brings one hand up to touch her hair and hide her face from him. This hot/cool body language technique is used to capture someone’s attention and to get them to coax the signals of interest back again,’ James observed.
‘Kim’s hand to hair gesture looks like a preen here, suggesting she sees Lewis as a very suitable “catch” to show off with pride at this public event.’
