Lana Condor and Noah Centineo Channeled Lara Jean and Peter Kavinsky on the Kids' Choice Awards Red Carpet
For the first time since To All the Boys I've Loved Before's Netflix premiere, the film's two breakout stars and real-life friends Lana Condor and Noah Centineo walked a red carpet together last night. The two were at the Kids' Choice Awards and channeled their characters Lara Jean Covey and Peter Kavinsky while posing for photos. Centineo kissed Condor on the head! The two were snuggly! It was all very cute and made sense, given the duo is beginning to shoot the sequel now and getting back into character.
On stage when Centineo won his Favorite Movie Actor award, Condor gave him a big hug too:
Condor and Centineo, by the way, really are just supportive friends who play love interests. While Condor has talked about feeling a spark with Centineo, she also said they set early boundaries and made a point to just stay friends. "I looked at him and I went, ‘Noah, it’s not going to happen between us,’" Condor told Jimmy Fallon in January. "Yeah, because I felt, for the show to do well, we had to be best-friend professionals. And so I was like, ‘it’s just not going to happen.’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, it’s not going to happen.’ And I was like, ‘Great!’"
Centineo is single right now, but Condor is happily in a longterm relationship with actor Anthony De La Torre. She also told Cosmopolitan in an interview published last month that she and Centineo have played up their chemistry in the past while promoting their film. “Noah and I definitely encouraged the [dating rumor] speculation,”she said. “But it’s because we believe in the story and the characters and we genuinely love each other. You can truly love someone in a very platonic way.”
At the Kids' Choice Awards, Condor did tease a little about the To All the Boys I've Loved Before sequel on the red carpet. (That sequel is based off the second book in the 3-part series, P.S. I Still Love You.) "We are starting shooting it really, really soon, and it's going to be amazing," she told Entertainment Tonight's reporter. She advised fans to expect "lots of love and sweetness and awesomeness. And there's going to be some drama."
