Josh Allen’s 2 word hint on attending the Oscars with Hailee Steinfeld
While the Buffalo Bills aren’t competing in the Super Bowl, quarterback Josh Allen is making the rounds in Las Vegas. In several interviews, Allen made it clear that he would rather play in the big game than talk about it.
Speaking with Kay Adams on his “Up & Adams” live show on February 9, Allen discussed his friendship with F1 race car driver Daniel Ricciardo, also based in Las Vegas. “He’s my guy, I love Danny,” Allen said.
Last month, Allen arrived at Highmark Stadium wearing a sherpa jacket from Ricciardo’s clothing line, Enchante. Within minutes, the $215 fleece was sold. Adams skillfully used this information to gain details about his relationship with Hailee Steinfeld.
Steinfeld’s film, “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” is up for best animated feature film at the 96th annual Academy Awards next month. “Are you going to wear Enchanté to the Oscars next month?” Adams asks.
“I can,” Alan replies.
Enchanté doesn’t make suits or ties, so Allen will need to shop elsewhere for his Oscar outfit. Fans were hoping to see the Bills star and his girlfriend make their red carpet debut at the NFL Honors on February 8. However, Alan ultimately decided to skip the ceremony at the last minute. Instead he joined the barstool sports crew for a night of trivia.
While Allen’s response was unclear, it appears he plans to join Steinfeld at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on March 10.
Hailee Steinfeld has spent much of the season next to Josh Allen in Buffalo
Allen and Steinfeld have kept a very low profile since they first started dating in May. While she avoids the Jumbotron, the Oscar-nominated actress attended nearly every Bills game this past season, both home and away.
Amid the longest strike ever for film and television actors, she spent the bulk of the NFL season in Buffalo. Before the Bills’ Week 4 matchup, she went shopping with Josh’s mother, Lavon Allen, to pick up some Bills gear. During the Bills-Jaguars game in London, the “Pitch Perfect” star sat next to Ricciardo at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Shortly after, Allen and Steinfeld made their first public appearance at the Buffalo Sabers home opener in October.
In December, Steinfeld celebrated her 27th birthday with Allen, which coincided with the Bills’ annual holiday party. While Steinfeld missed the Bills’ regular-season finale because she was presenting at the Golden Globes, she returned to Buffalo for the Wild Card round.
Walking the red carpet at the awards ceremony, Steinfeld successfully dispelled engagement rumors. When asked, “What about a sportsman?” She replied, “Listen, what isn’t it? Come now.”
Josh Allen is spending the offseason in Southern California, close to Hailee Steinfeld
Allen told Adams that he moved from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, who asked the host why he was in LA. “I live there!” Allen replied. Last offseason, Allen bought a $7.2 million home in Dana Point, a seaside town about 60 miles south of Los Angeles.
Steinfeld lives in Encino, a suburb northwest of LA about 80 miles from Dana Point. He bought John Fogerty’s former home in 2021 for $8 million, per Realtor.com.
As for his offseason plans, Allen, who bought a hot tub for his new home, said, “The first month or so is usually decompressing. Allow the body to heal. The other part is, OK, let’s get back in shape a little bit.” He’s also excited to play a lot of golf.
When he returns to Buffalo, the mission to reach the Super Bowl begins anew. “We’ve got to find a way to get over that hump,” Allen said. “It’s not easy.”
