Rumer Willis is boldly honoring her mother, Demi Moore, by wearing the same gold bathing suit Demi famously wore in the 1996 film "Striptease," where she portrayed Erin Grant — an FBI secretary-turned-stripper. Rumer donned the iconic ensemble in a photo, prompting reactions from netizens.

Adding to the nostalgia, Rumer is now 36 — the same age Demi was when she first wore the ensemble — creating a full-circle moment. As a child, Rumer appeared in the film alongside her mother, but now she's making her own statement, embracing their shared history.

While the vintage outfit remains as striking as ever, reactions to their side-by-side comparison were mixed. One netizen wrote, "The daughter does look better in the bathing suit, but she's not as pretty as her mom."

Another added, "she has her dad's face he is very handsome but doesn't look like her mom who is gorgeous. nothing wrong with Rumer but will never be Demi. but her body rocks good for her [sic]."

Some netizens dismissed the comparison entirely, with one saying there was no contest between the two. Another insisted that Demi not only owned the look back then but could still pull it off today.

Others, however, praised Rumer for embracing her natural beauty, "Rumer has a natural body. Demi had implants. So I think rumer wore it better ❤️ [sic]."

Others had a more positive take, with one saying both women looked great, while another specifically praised Rumer's appearance. One person simply expressed their enthusiasm for the look, "Love it! 🔥"

Beyond reviving her mother's iconic bikini look, Rumer and her siblings have also been celebrating Demi's latest achievements, showing their unwavering support for her legacy.

Back in January 2025, Demi celebrated her Golden Globe victory with her three daughters, two of whom shared heartfelt tributes to her on Instagram. The sweet moments come around the same time that Tallulah Willis set the record straight on Demi's alleged dismissal of Kylie Jenner at the awards ceremony.

Perhaps one of the most striking pictures Rumer shared was her cover image, which shows her, Tallulah, and second sister Scout Willis (Demi's second-born daughter), who wore a black dress, sticking out their tongues while surrounding their mom and her Golden Globe, which they all held onto.

"Clear Eyes, Full Hearts Can't Lose!!! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏼 (And yes I took @buuski caption cause it [sic] that's good) Mama you are a goddess starting a revolution @demimoore [sic]," gushed Rumer at the beginning of her caption.

Like her proud daughters, Demi celebrated her victory with a carousel post of her own. One of the highlights was a joyful video where she threw her hands up in excitement, flashing a wide grin as she proudly showcased her award.

Some were left perplexed by certain aspects of the images, like how Tallulah, Rumer, and Scout chose to pose in some shots.

One observer voiced their strong opinion concerning how unnecessary they feel the buzz and excitement surrounding Demi's Golden Globe win is, commenting, "It's just an award for acting why do they make such a huge deal about this... What about Noble peace prize awards?? Those are worth the excitement and accomplishment [sic]."

On the other hand, some people love seeing how happy Demi's daughters are about the actress' win. "You all look so happy! 😍 Congratulations! And I WANT that polka dot dress!" swooned a fan, while another said, "Girls gone wild 😍."

A fellow admirer stated, "Love this very much." "Real classy," added someone else. Amid the compliments, a question arose from an Instagrammer who wondered, "Weren't they all home in sweats?"

As the aforementioned commenter noted, Rumer Willis, Scout Willis, and Tallulah were seen cheering their mom on from home, where they watched the Golden Globes on TV in casual and comfy outfits.

A video that Scout shared on Instagram showed the trio of sisters jumping up and down in excitement after Demi's name was announced as the winner in the Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy category.

The touching familial moment came amid Tallulah Willis shutting down rumors that her mom had purposely ignored famous influencer Kylie Jenner at the Golden Globes. The instance occurred when she approached the table Kylie was seated at to greet fellow A-lister Elle Fanning.

Tallulah set the record straight via a since-expired post on her Instagram Story. "We spent New Year with Elle, so connecting with her after a win was a very organic thing to do. This angel was in total shock and delight and moving throughout a warm room of well wishers [sic]," explained Tallulah.

She continued, "There was not snub of any sort, had she seen KJ wanting to congratulate her she would have fully given her the time and space. Literally just give it all a break and let a gal enjoy her accomplishments [sic]!"

Tabloids began reporting on the moment after videos from the event that showed what happened went viral across social media.

Joining Kylie at her table, aside from Elle, was her boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, and another woman. The influencer attended the event to support Timothée, who was nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama for his role in "A Complete Unknown."

The footage, shared on various TikTok accounts, captured Demi excitedly embracing Elle, Timothée's co-star in "A Complete Unknown," at their shared table. She also passionately interacted with the woman seated next to Elle. During this interaction, Kylie offered Demi her congratulations.

Demi had just won her Golden Globe, hence, in the video, the actress briefly glances at Kylie when she congratulates her but then turns away quickly without responding.

The "Ghost" actress continued her conversation with Elle and, upon concluding, began to walk away. However, she paused briefly when Timothée congratulated her. Demi and Timothée shared a brief interaction, holding hands as the "Dune" star gently touched Demi's hands in celebration.

Netizens who saw the footage accused Demi of ignoring Kylie Jenner, noting that she interacted with Timothée, Elle, and the woman at the table while seemingly overlooking the reality star.

One person didn't hold back, saying, "Yeah she snubbed her! Not cool. 🙄" Another echoed the sentiment, "Rude!" while an Instagrammer commented, "That's awkward. lol giving Kylie the cold shoulder lmaoo [sic]."

Someone else speculated on how Kylie might have felt, "Kylie went home and cried, that was so mean of demi Moore, would she do that to Kim [sic]." Another weighed in on etiquette, "Well truth be told, where I'm from, if you come to someone's table, you greet everyone there, it doesn't matter if you know them or not. It's just not nice not to do that... but, that's just me."

A TikTok user didn't mince words, writing, "U don't have to be a fan of kylie to know that's rude of demi. It's actually disappointing. Kylie didn't do anything so this shows she was looking down on her. If she can do that to her, she will to us [sic]."

Another critical netizen didn't hold back in expressing their disappointment, "Demi Moore ignoring Kylie Jenner on purpose is simply mannerless [sic]. You're in a public social setting. Direct cut, skipping someone on purpose to prove your disdain proves much more of Demi than of Kylie. Classless and crass. You're in a gown and behave like a clown."

For one person, it came down to basic decency. "What's wrong with Demi Moore? Like, it's okay that you don't want to engage in conversation with someone, but you say hello just to be polite. I felt bad for Kylie, she still tried to tell her something and the chick ignored her," they noted.

Defending Kylie's efforts to be cordial, someone shared, "I get kylie isn’t popular but why are y’all praising demi moore for being inconsiderate? ignoring someone that’s right in front of you only wanting to greet you is… a choice 🥴 [sic]."

On the other hand, a supporter suggested a different view, "You all are weird. She told her thank you, she probably doesn't have a clue who she is. She wasn't rude to her at all." A Demi fan who noticed the details added, "She spoke to her!!!! Kylie didn't go in for a hug! She just said congrats."

Finally, another admirer offered a possible explanation, "Have u guys considered that demi moore probably hasn’t seen Kylie? I mean she looks so nice to everyone that it gets harder to imagine she would ignore someone who's congratulating her [sic]."

Kylie had previously hinted at being a fan of Demi before this alleged snub. In October 2024, she posed fully nude to recreate the poster for Demi's iconic movie.

Despite this nod of appreciation, the supposed snub has people speculating about the dynamics between the two stars.

However, at the 2025 Golden Globes, Demi's demeanor clearly reflected her excitement over her win, which marked her first major acting award.

Throughout her decades-long career, she has received three Golden Globe nominations but has never secured a win until now. Her nominations include Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy for "Ghost" in 1991.
