Patrick Stewart dons drag, gets compared to Helen Mirren
Sir Patrick Stewart was nearly unrecognizable when he showed up in a wig, false lashes and a pink dress for an event in Los Angeles, California to promote season two of "Blunt Talk."
"Something is happening in Hollywood tonight," the 75-year-old actor captioned a photo of himself in the makeup chair on Monday.
Something is happening in Hollywood tonight. #blunttalkseason2

Stewart went all out by donning a statement necklace, black heels, a pair of pantyhose and a silver clutch bag.
After showing off his look, the "Star Trek: The Next Generation" star got quite the compliment when the Twitterverse started comparing him to 70-year-old actress, Dame Helen Mirren.
@SirPatStew You look like Helen Mirren's older distinguished sister, and I have so many questions.
