While most celebrities are bound to cross paths on the red carpet or at other industry events, it’s no surprise that some stars become friends with each other. But some famous pals form the most surprising friendships that nobody could have expected, many becoming BFFs over the years. Often, opposites attract, and these iconic duos prove it.
1. Jennifer Lawrence And Adele
This unexpected (and hilarious) duo are secret besties. While the Oscar-winning J-Law is known for her quirky sense of humor, Adele is the queen of ballads – but what exactly do they have in common besides their talent? Based on clips of the two together, quite a lot! Often seen having epic nights out on the town, the most famous video of the two together is at an NYC bar where they played drinking games and hung out with drag queens. In an industry where appearances are everything, we adore the genuine friendship between these two.

2. Serena Williams and Meghan Markle
These two powerhouses met in the mid-2000s but majorly bonded in 2014 at the DirectTV Celebrity Beach Bowl. Both royalty in their own right, Serena attended Meghan’s wedding and hosted her baby shower. Apparently, “girly stuff” is at the heart of their friendship. Despite being iconic entrepreneurs and American personalities, the duchess and the tennis star can still connect over a fabulous pair of heels or that new shade of lipstick they’re obsessed with.

3. Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King
These TV legends have been best friends for ages, but how exactly did Gayle and Oprah connect? It all boils down to fate. It all started during a blizzard when the two were working at the same news station years ago. Oprah, a news anchor at the time, offered production assistant Gayle a place to crash on her couch so she wouldn’t have to brave the winter storm. Since then, it’s been road trips, deep talks with a glass of wine, and making each other laugh non-stop. After 46 years, this friendship is going strong – their catchphrase is, “No matter what, I’m here for you.”
