Anna Wintour cracks ‘Devil Wears Prada’ joke during surprise Broadway appearance with Anne Hathaway

That’s all.

Vogue editor Anna Wintour — who’s not known for her self-deprecating sense of humor — sent a Broadway crowd into a tizzy when she made a “Devil Wears Prada” quip onstage with the movie’s star Anne Hathaway.

The unlikely duo made a surprise appearance Wednesday night during “Gutenberg! The Musical!,” which stars Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells as best friends putting on a Broadway musical.

Each show ends with a celebrity walking onstage as a “Broadway producer” to present Gad and Rannells with a contract for their musical within a musical about Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the printing press.

The audience roared with laughter when the Vogue editor, 74, announced that she was “a very famous Broadway producer,” before pausing and looking over at Hathaway.

“And this is my assistant,” she ad-libbed, referencing Hathaway’s character in the famous film.

Hathaway, 41, played Andy Sachs, a put-upon assistant of Miranda Priestly, a powerful fashion magazine editor, memorably played by Meryl Streep, in the 2006 film.

The movie is based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel of the same name, who worked as one of Wintour’s assistants.

Broadway producer Jordan Roth captured the moment on Instagram, captioning it in part: “This is THE BEST thing you’ll see all day!”

An insider exclusively tells Pvnew that, surprisingly, it was the Wintour’s idea to have Hathaway come up on stage with her.

However, the Vogue editor’s appearance was less of a surprise as her daughter, Bee Carrozzini, is a producer on the show.

A slew of A-listers have clambered on stage to play the “producer” including Steve Martin, Patti LuPone, Nathan Lane, Will Ferrell, Jake Gyllenhaal and Kerry Washington.

According to our insider, no celebrity has caused such a wild reaction from the crowd as Wintour and Hathaway.

The fashionable duo caused a stir last year when they sat next to each other at a Michael Kors fashion show.

Fans of the movie went wild as the actress wore a nearly identical outfit to the one her character wore in the film

However, Hathaway claimed at the time that her matching moment was purely accidental.
