Halle Bailey captures Princess Ariel’s magic in spectacular fishtail at the Little Mermaid premiere
Halle Bailey perfectly captured Princess Ariel’s magic on Monday night when she arrived at the Los Angeles premiere of The Little Mermaid in a spectacular fishtail gown.
The 23-year-old star was joined by her supportive big sister Chloe, 24, who looked stunning in a sultry yellow dress that hugged her curves and flashed her cleavage with a sexy crystal cutout.
The two siblings reigned supreme on the blue carpet as the history-making live-action remake prepares to make a giant splash at the box office.
Halle was joined at the premiere by her A-list co-stars, as Melissa McCarthy, 52, looked like an undersea queen in her regal blue dress with fringed embellishments and puffed sleeves.
Javier Bardem, 54, was classically handsome in his tailored suit. The Oscar winner plays Ariel’s father King Triton opposite McCarthy, who plays the villainous Ursula.

Halle has been a star since she was a teenager. She is also one half of the R&B singing group Chloe x Halle with her sister Chloe Bailey.
Playing the role of Ariel allowed her to spread her wings and explore her individuality.
“It was the first thing I did on my own, independently,” Halle revealed to the outlet. ‘I had to travel the world. Suddenly I was in London and alone. It really forced me to grow up.”
“The whole movie experience was insane. It was the most intense, excruciatingly beautiful experience of my life. I mean, physically, mentally – all of the above,” the actress admitted.
“But once I got through it, I was like, wow. [I was] really impressed with myself, because I had never done anything like this before.’
The Little Mermaid is expected to make a big splash when it hits theaters over Memorial Day weekend.
Current projections show that the live-action remake of the 1989 animated classic raked in $110 million in its four-day opening weekend, according to deadline.
