Stanley Tucci recently shared a fun and surprising revelation about his most iconic on-screen role during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show. When asked which of his characters is most like him in real life, Tucci didn’t hesitate to name Nigel from The Devil Wears Prada.

Tucci explained that Nigel, the stylish and occasionally caustic fashion expert, is a character he closely relates to because, just like Nigel, he believes he has a good heart. His lighthearted yet earnest description of his character shows that there’s more to Nigel than just his sharp wit and fashionable persona.

This candid moment might come as a bit of a surprise to fans, considering Tucci’s wide range of beloved roles over the years. However, Nigel remains a fan favorite, with many still fondly remembering his moments of wisdom and humor alongside Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly and Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs.

If true, fans will undoubtedly be eager to see where the story of Miranda, Andy, and Nigel might go next.
