How Dolly Parton, Gigi Hadid and More Stars Are Celebrating Thanksgiving 2025
This Thanksgiving is simply the baste.
Celebrities came together with their friends and family on Nov. 27 to gobble up some good times as they gathered around the Thanksgiving table.
And what a Thanksgiving table it will be for Gigi Hadid. The supermodel showed off her Thanksgiving prep alongside her and Zayn Malik‘s 4-year-old daughter Khai, writing in an Instagram Story, “Preppin!”
The 30-year-old—who has been dating Bradley Cooper since 2023—also displayed her bread breading skills in another post.
And while Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will have a Turkey Day face off with the Dallas Cowboys in Texas, Brittany Mahomes didn’t waste the opportunity to show off her family’s adorable fall photo shoot on Instagram.
In the photos, which include Brittany and Patrick, as well as their kids Sterling, 4, Bronze, 2, and Golden, 10 months, the family join hands as they smile for the camera. Sterling and her dad matched in coordinating red hues, while Brittany and Golden wore navy blue. Bronze, meanwhile, took after both of his parents in a maroon and navy plaid shirt.
Alongside the adorable portraits, Brittany wrote with a brown heart emoji, “Happy Thanksgiving.”
As for Brendan Fraser, the Oscar winner recently told E! News he was looking forward to spending Thanksgiving dressing up the 3D rubber deer in his backyard.
“I’m going to cut some ping pong balls in half and draw eyeballs on it,” the 56-year-old said. “I found an old mold from my dentist, I want to stick it in the deer’s mouth.”
The Mummy star also revealed that his role during turkey day is just to supply the good times—as he leaves the cooking to the rest of his crew.
“I’m just going to be the venue owner,” Brendan quipped. “Everybody else is going to have to show up with the goodies.”
And there were sure to be plenty of goodies on the table for Jamie Chung and husband Bryan Greenberg, as the Big Hero 6 star recently revealed why Thanksgiving is one of her favorite holidays.
“Korean people love to eat, and sharing a meal together is really important for bonding and all that good stuff,” Jamie told E! News earlier this month. “So, Thanksgiving has always been a big holiday in my family, and Thanksgiving is also a big holiday in Bryan’s family.”
This year, the couple and their 4-year-old twin boys headed to the Midwest for a lowkey celebration with Bryan’s family, with Jamie adding, “We’ll just kind of hang low.”

It was also an extra sentimental Turkey Day for Jessica Alba, because her and Cash Warren’s eldest daughter Honor, 17, is a senior in high school and will be off to college soon, with the Honey actress telling E!, “it just feels like her last year of living in the house.”
To that end, the 44-year-old is doing everything she can to make sure it’s an extra special holiday season for Honor, as well as kids Haven, 14, and Hayes, 7.
“My core focus is making sure that my kids feel like we’re making forever memories,” she added. “Because that’s really what the holidays are for. My number one priority.”
Now take a moment to (turkey) trot on over to see how celebs are celebrating Thanksgiving this year.
