Stunner: Sarah also looked stunning as she stormed the red carpet
This comes as she said her management were opposed to her losing weight because playing the 'funny fat girl' in a string of successful films had earned her a fortune.
The star has lost more than 35kg (5.5 stone) after embarking on rigorous health and fitness journey in 2019.
But she admits the decision to change her lifestyle was met with opposition in some quarters after her previous body shape helped her amass an estimated $22million fortune with roles in box office hits such as Bridesmaids and the Pitch Perfect film series.

She told BBC Breakfast: 'I got a lot of pushback from my own team actually, here in Hollywood, when I said OK, I'm going to do this year of health, I feel like I'm really gonna physically transform and change my life.
'And they were like why? Why would you wanna do that? Because I was earning millions of dollars being the funny fat girl and being that person.'
Despite always being comfortable with her weight, Rebel admits food became a defense mechanism that helped her escape her emotions as she struggled to establish herself as an actress.
Stunning! Rebel admitted 'I got a lot of pushback from my own team actually, here in Hollywood, when I said OK, I'm going to do this year of health'
She explained: 'I knew deep down inside that some of the emotional eating behavior's I was doing was not healthy. Like I did not need a tub of ice cream every night.
'That was not, that was me kind of numbing emotions using food, which wasn't the healthiest thing.'
She added: 'I think it was dealing with not being a natural performer, and having to perform every day. And that pressure and internal stress to be able to perform like that.'
