Wayne's World star Tia Carrere wows onlookers at Gracie Awards Gala in Los Angeles

Tia Carrere wowed onlookers as she attended the 47th annual Gracie Awards Gala in Los Angeles.

The 55-year old, who rose to fame after starring in Wayne's World in 1992 and its sequel a year later, looked stunning in a single-sleeve silver gown incorporating a mermaid effect at the event on Tuesday.

Holding a matching patterned clutch bag, the actress wore her dark brown hair up in a bun with a long strand falling on either side of her face.

Sporting such a dazzling look and slender figure it's hard to believe its now 30 years since she featured alongside Mike Myers and Dana Carvey.

Following the awards ceremony the star took to Instagram to share an image of her look to her 107,000 followers.

She captioned the post: "The Alliance for Women in Media connects, recognizes, and inspires women across the media industry."

The Honolulu-born mother of one's latest role, meanwhile, sees her star as namesake Tia Theresa in the forthcoming family comedy feature, Easter Sunday.

The position was originally given to Philippine actress Sharon Cuneta, but she was forced to pull out of filming in spring last year after - what ultimately proved falsely - testing positive for Covid-19.

The film, directed by Jay Chandrasekhar, also stars stand-up comics Jo Koy and Jimmy O. Yang, as well as former Broadway star Eva Noblezada.

It's plot centres around the life of a struggling comedian who takes his son to meet other dysfunctional family members at a gathering in the Bay Area of San Francisco.

The official trailer of the movie was released on the official Universal Pictures YouTube account earlier this month.

The flick was originally scheduled to be released on April 1, but is now set to hit cinemas on August 5.
