So, it's St. Patrick's Day and you may be wondering what all your favorite celebrities are up to. And, oddly enough, they're doing a lot. I feel like St. Patty's Day (March 17) is mostly about drinking beer (and having an excuse to drink too much of it), and wearing green (or not, and complaining about everyone who pinches you). But for me, it's all about the weird ways in which celebrities share their excitement for the holiday.
I think because it lands on a Friday, my Instagram feed (I have an account dedicated solely to following every famous person ever) has been full of the strangest posts dedicated to leprechauns, pots of gold, and the color green. After scrolling through for a while, it became clear that the next few posts are the most celebratory of them all. I never expected to see these stars get so hype over the death date of Saint Patrick. (Yes — that's really what the holiday marks.) So, without further ado, here's how the rich and famous are celebrating a holiday best spent in a crowded pub — while wearing shamrocks, of course.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Meet the unofficial Queen of St. Patrick's Day. This look is really something. She also shared a picture of a special emerald outfit.
Robert Downey Jr.
What is up with this picture?! Apparently Downey Jr. will be making an appearance in a St. Patrick's Day Parade while wearing a full-on shamrock one-piece. Oh, and he'll be flanked by two huge, hairy pigs.
Vanessa Hudgens
Vanessa Hudgens took to Snapchat to share her excitement for the green-themed holiday with an over-the-top picture. Maybe she's going to a St. Patty's pub crawl?
Elaine Hendrix
Remember the mean almost stepmom in Lindsay Lohans' The Parent Trap? Her Instagram game is alive and strong. Especially with custom leprechaun and cat content like this.
Avril Lavigne
The former teen punk rock princess posted a throwback picture of herself with bright green highlights. Très chic.
Kerry Washington
The Scandal star has covered herself in green hearts.
