Only Prince William and Kate Middleton could leave Hollywood's biggest names star struck.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge hit the carpet at Saturday night's "Brits to Watch" event sponsored by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), and the celebrity attendees (ranging from Jonah Hill to James Brolin) couldn't help but show some giddiness over rubbing elbows with the royal couple.

We chatted with the likes of Mary Louise Parker, Nigel Lithgow, Zooey Deschanel, and many more about their initial reaction to the madness surrounding Wills and Kate's tour of California. Check out the video above for all the mingling between Hollywood and royals, and of course, plenty of footage of the royal couple's Hollywood red carpet debut.

And while you're at it, take a look at the red carpet looks from last night's event in our BAFTA "Brits to Watch" Gala gallery.
