Blake Lively, best known for her glamorous red carpet appearances and iconic roles on screen, has swapped designer gowns for an apron and gloves. The actress was spotted behind the counter of a small donut shop, and the unexpected sight left customers doing double takes.

On Sunday, March 30, Blake Lively was seen working at Rise Doughnuts in Wilton, Connecticut. “Baking with genius food friends and their kitchen mixer the size of a car,” Lively shared on her Instagram Stories, adding, “This is what my happy place looks like.”

The 37-year-old actress, who has long expressed her passion for baking, appeared delighted as she filled donuts with cream and interacted with customers. A source revealed that Lively "was in a really happy mood" and mentioned she was friends with the shop's owner.

Lively wasn’t just there for show—she was fully hands-on in the donut-making process. She even teamed up with celebrity chef Hugh Mangum, a winner of Chopped and a BBQ Brawl champion, to create a special treat: a bourbon rhubarb cream cheese donut. Sharing a video of the process, she joked, "Earning my keep filling our concoction together this week."

Her love for baking has been no secret, as she has frequently posted her culinary creations on social media. From holding a perfectly glazed Boston Cream donut—quipping, "I must know what this donut’s skincare routine is"—to showcasing trays of freshly dipped treats, Lively’s enthusiasm was evident.

She even joked about her early morning shift, saying, "I would travel far and wide for these things. And maybe even get up at 5 a.m. on a Sunday to work there."

While starstruck fans posed for photos with Blake, many people online pointed out the same detail.

In all the photos and clips, Blake seems to be missing a hairnet while baking. "No hair net over those donuts or over the mixer? Ew," commented one. "Holding tray full of donuts with mouth wide open and hair down and armpit open, so gross!" added another.

Kris Jenner, 69, recently debuted a new dramatic haircut and stunned fans say she looks much younger. Check out her photos here.

worked in multiple 5 star hotels and restaurants, never worn a hair net, never would, they tried to bring it in in the 80s, and it was beaten by the simple arguments that it was the least food complaint ever recorded, and that the waitresses would also have to wear them as the handled the food as much as the chefs. No restaurants would agree to it, but mostly all facilities with outdoor dining were subject to leaves, flies and a dozen other foriegn objects likely to end up in the food, and not one of the clowns complaining wears a hairnet at home making food for their children.
