Prince William And Kate Middleton Get A Real Hollywood Welcome (PHOTOS)

Prince William and Kate Middleton stepped out for the only black tie affair of their visit to the states. The royal couple were the main attraction at the BAFTA Brits To Watch event in Los Angeles, California on Saturday night (July 9).

Kate looked stunning in a lilac Alexander McQueen gown cinched at the waist while William looked sharp in a black tuxedo. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge received an extremely warm welcome at the Belasco Theatre as they joined a star-studded guest list including Hollywood headliners and young stars such as Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lopez and her mother, Blake Lively, Jennifer Garner, Jack Black, Zooey Deschanel, Tom Hanks, among many others.

During the affair, Prince William opened the gala with a speech about "what he hopes to achieve for the evening" before he and the duchess briefly met the 42 honorees in a private reception area.
