Aubrey Plaza larks around with Drew Barrymore and Natasha Lyonne at the Time 100 Gala

Aubrey Plaza looked in great sprits as she larked around with Drew Barrymore and Natasha Lyonne at the Time 100 Gala held Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall in New York City on Wednesday night.

The actress, 38, put on a leggy display in a red satin mini dress as she shared a joke with her fellow film stars at the glitzy event. 

The annual event is in celebration of those who the magazine has selected as the 100 most influential people in the world for 2023, including Kim Kardashian, Ali Wong, John Legend and Steven Spielberg.

And Aubrey, Drew and Natasha were certainly making the most of the night out as they pulled off a number of fun poses for the camera. 

The three ladies giggled and chatted away backstage at the event, while Aubrey at one point appeared to suck her thumb.

While Drew, 48, looked lovely in a floaty white gown and sheer cape and Natasha, 44, wowed in a plunging black number, Aubrey showcased her toned pins in her thigh-skimming red mini.

The short shift dress perfectly hugged her curves and came with a removable matching cape, which Aubrey had earlier modelled on the red carpet. 

The White Lotus star teamed her dress with pointed black heels and back earrings, while her brunette locks were worn in an elegant up ‘do.

She was also joined on the red carpet by Amy Poehler, 51, who looked glam in a stunning lilac gown.

The Mean Girls star joined in with the festivities as she too shared a joke with her fellow actresses. 

It comes after Aubrey starred in a video for Got Milk’s new spoof campaign that was released on her Instagram account last week.

In the clip, the comedian promoted items from the fictional company Wood Milk, which she described as ‘absolutely not’ real.

The star of The White Lotus, who recently joined one of her old costars in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, was also featured in several promotional shots for the campaign, in which she showed off its merchandise.

Plaza began the video, which was shot in a heavily wooded area, by gazing at a tree and asking: ‘Have you ever looked a tree and thought: “Can I drink this?”‘

The actress, who serves as the co-founder of the fake company, went on to introduce Wood Milk and spoke about the high quality of the fictional product.

‘Here at Wood Milk Orchards, we’re certain that our artisanal Wood Milk will be the only milk you’ll want to drink for the rest of your life. Why? Because I said so,’ she stated.  

The performer described Wood Milk as ‘bottled right here in the forest where the trees hit the dirt, which locks in the flavors like cherry, maple and of course, mahogany.’

She added: ‘If you can’t pick your favorite, that’s okay, because they all taste like wood.’

Aubrey has recently hit a career high as one of the main stars of the second season of highly-popular HBO series The White Lotus.

The Wilmington, Delaware native has five upcoming projects on the way including starring in Marvel series Agatha: Coven Of Chaos which is set to stream on Disney+ later this year.

She played Harper Spiller who is a straight-laced employment lawyer married to tech entrepreneur Ethan (Will Sharpe) as they bring their strained relationship to an Italian vacation with his college friend Cameron (Theo James) and Daphne Sullivan (Meghann Fahy) and things certainly get interesting.
