Today is Cinco de Mayo — and the biggest stars are celebrating in style.
Held on May 5 each year to commemorate the Mexican army’s 1862 defeat of the French Empire at the Battle of Pueblo, Cinco de Mayo celebrations honor Mexican culture. Food, dancing, folklore and parades are all part of the festivities.
Here’s what your favorite celebrities did for Cinco de Mayo this year.
Busy Philipps

Katy Perry
Katy Perry rang in the holiday with a Cinco de Mayo-themed Instagram from the set of “American Idol!” The show is down to its last five contestants, and the KP Collection designer — fittingly — has five wigs in her dressing room.
