The actress turned everyone’s heads at Sunday’s ceremony with her unusual yet truly chic red carpet outfit choice.
Kathy beautifully matched a unique beaded dinner jacket with black tuxedo pants and a sparkling evening bag, but probably the most attention went to her unexpected footwear. The actress was wearing a pair of Sneex — a sneaker-heel hybrid from Spanx founder Sara Blakely.

Besides thetruly charmingoutfit, Kathy was barely recognizable due to her slim figure.
A bit earlier this year, theMiserystar opened up about herweight-loss journeyover the past few years. The Oscar-winning actress has lost an astonishing 100 pounds (approximately 45 kilograms).
Kathy had to take her health much more seriously beginning in 2017 when she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
“It runs in my family, and I’ve seen what my father had gone through. He had a leg amputation… One of my sisters is dealing with it very seriously. It terrified me, and it just scared me straight and I thought, ‘I’ve got to do something’,” she shared at the time in aninterview.
“Getting diagnosed with diabetes doesn’t mean you have to give up your favorite foods, but it can definitely help to be mindful of your overall eating pattern,” the actress added.

Speaking about health, it was quite important for the role of Madeline, or ‘Matty’, in the legaldramaMatlock, since Matty is quite active.
“In the last couple of years, I’ve really focused on it and gotten almost down to what I weighed when I was in college,” Kathy explained in theinterviewwith The Hollywood Reporter.
“The confluence of my beinghealthyand then the show coming along was just serendipity. I’m in good shape. I can walk, I can breathe, whereas before on different shows, I had to sit down every two to three minutes,” she added.

Kathy also noted thatMatlock, whichexploresthe ‘invisibility’ of women of a certain age, saved her from semi-retirement.
“A woman my age would never have such a role. Never. And the complexity of the role and the writing, I pinch myself every day,” Kathy said.
“I’ve only been interested in doing the best work I can possibly do. And I think, as I said earlier, to be able to bring all those facets that I’ve learned from doing all those different kinds of roles into this, I’m glad I stuck around for it,” she added.
