NEED TO KNOW<\/p>\n

Emily Blunt revealed Meryl Streep danced to “Mamma Mia” with her and John Krasinski’s moms at their wedding<\/p>\n

Streep joked she wanted to “hurl herself into the lake” during the moment, but still joined in on the fun<\/p>\n

The couple wed in 2010 at George Clooney’s Lake Como estate after he insisted they use the venue<\/p>\n

Meryl Streep<\/a> was a dancing queen when she attended Emily Blunt<\/a> and John Krasinski’s<\/a> wedding back in 2010.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, May 26, Blunt, 43, appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and spoke with the comedian, 58, about her wedding to John Krasinski. Kimmel<\/a> began by mentioning that everyone was “freaking out” about Streep being at the wedding, which led Blunt to share that her family hadn’t met the actress prior to the event.<\/p>\n

“She worked with John as well, but I don\u2019t think my family had met her,” said Blunt, who starred alongside Streep in 2006’s The Devil Wears Prada. Her husband, meanwhile, worked with the 76-year-old in 2009’s It’s Complicated.<\/p>\n

“And do you remember on the second day [of the wedding], we went out on the boat on Lake Como and we had this kind of boat ride with 60 people on it?”<\/p>\n

\u201c[The DJ on the boat] would sing the songs in half-Italian, half-English,” recalled Blunt. “And he started playing ‘Mamma Mia,’ and my mom and John\u2019s mom started ominously dancing towards Meryl.”<\/p>\n

Although Streep danced the song away with Blunt and Krasinski’s mom, she later admitted that it wasn’t amongst her favorite moments from the wedding.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe indulged them. But I said to her afterwards, I was like, \u2018What did you feel when they came for you?\u2019 and she went, \u2018I wanted to hurl myself into the lake,’ ” joked Blunt.<\/p>\n

\u201c[But] she did it! We have pictures of them all dancing together. It was amazing,\u201d added the star.<\/p>\n

Streep famously starred as Donna in the 2008 movie musical Mamma Mia!. She reprised her role in its 2018 sequel Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.<\/p>\n

Krasinski and Blunt first met<\/a> at a Los Angeles restaurant in 2008 and wed two years later. They’ve since welcomed daughters<\/a> Hazel, 12, and Violet, 9.<\/p>\n

On July 10, 2010, the couple tied the knot during a quiet ceremony<\/a> at George Clooney<\/a>‘s estate in Lake Como, Italy. Blunt wore a custom gown by Marchesa, accessorized with a three-carat round diamond and platinum ring from Neil Lane.<\/p>\n

Krasinski later revealed to Elle<\/a> in 2016 how Clooney offered up his estate to the couple.<\/p>\n

“Only on the fourth ask did I say yes. Because the first three times I thought, There’s no way he is serious,” he shared. “But I started to see his feelings get hurt. I actually hurt George Clooney’s feelings.”<\/p>\n
