In Hollywood, the who’s who of the acting scene walks the red carpet at the 96th Academy Awards. There is also a Swiss sports star in the middle. Roger Federer (42) and his wife Mirka Federer (45) are also there when the best acting performances and films are honored. He in a white tuxedo with black Prada pants, she in a simple black dress with white collar and refined buttons.
When asked what he was doing at the Oscars, Federer replied: “I was invited and I usually have a lot to do around this date, so I said to myself why not spend the night with my wife at the Oscars and the see stars?”
Federer has been in San Francisco in recent days. On the one hand to announce that the Laver Cup will take place there in 2025 and on the other hand he visited the NBA team the Golden State Warriors.
First appearance as a brand ambassador
Federer takes advantage of the invitation to perform in the best James Bond style. The tennis maestro appears on the red carpet for the first time wearing sunglasses. The accessory on his nose was not chosen by chance. Because he combines the whole thing with an advertising gig for the $63 million luxury eyewear brand Oliver Peoples.
According to ‘Essentially Sports’, rumors circulated last year that Federer had signed a lucrative advertising deal. Now he provides a glamorous first appearance for and with the brand. The model of glasses Federer wears to the Oscars is aptly named Mr. Federer and will be available for purchase from March 13. Cost: between 452 and 502 dollars (the equivalent of between 396 and 440 francs).
Already at the Oscars in 2016 – with tequila
It is not only Federer’s sunglasses that attract fans’ attention, but also the luxury watch on his wrist. He is wearing a Rolex Daytona 100th Anniversary or Le Mans Edition, which costs approximately 45,000 francs.
It is not the first time that Federer has attended the Oscars. He already visited the event in 2016. At that time he did not cause much fuss with sunglasses, but with a special appearance on the red carpet. At the insistence of actor Guillermo Rodriguez (53), he drank a tequila shot. “That was a strong one,” he said of the whole thing.
