Cannes Film Festival Hair! Salma Hayek

WOW! SALMA HAYEK HAS PINK HAIR – AND LOOKS FABULOUS!

Salma Hayek, 50, doesn’t always get it right when she dresses up, but she hit the target on this one. Salma turned up at the Women in Motion Awards dinner in Cannes with this lovely dress and pink tinted hair! She looks surprisingly old-Hollywood glamorous and this is not an easy look to pull off. Her husband Francois-Henri Pinault must be very amused. Close observers say this is a wig but it certainly looks good from here….

Cannes Film Festival Fashion Rihanna

RIHANNA KNOCKS ‘EM DEAD IN CANNES

The Cannes Film Festival appears to have become more of a 12 day fashion festival than anything else. What everyone WEARS is more thoroughly discussed than the movies! The red carpet is littered with tall models in impossibly extravagant gowns promoting designers – they are overshadowing the actresses promoting their movies. Opulent dresses like Rihanna is successfully displaying are nice to look at – but we’d love to see fabulous day and street clothing. How many women ever have the opportunity to wear an evening gown like that?

Baby Cannes Film Festival Eva Mendes Ryan Gosling

HE’S A LOOKER, BUT RYAN GOSLING ONLY HAS EYES FOR EVA MENDES

Ryan Gosling looks particularly handsome on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival premier of The Nice Guys. As usual, he is not with his love of five years, Eva Mendes – they almost never appear in public together. Of course, she also surprised everyone by giving birth to their second daughter last week. In spite of the secrecy, they seem to be very happy and devoted to each other. Sometimes Ryan can’t resist blurting out things like “I know I’m with the person I’m supposed to be with and I never knew life could be this fun!”

Cannes Film Festival Geena Davis Thelma & Louise

TOO BAD GEENA DAVIS DIDN’T WEAR FLAT SHOES TO THE CANNES FILM FESTIVAL

Geena Davis looks happy as she leaves the Cannes Film Festival where she and her Thelma & Louise costar Susan Sarandon were honored for their contributions to the film industry. The movie was screened to celebrate its 25th anniversary. By the way, Geena is founder of an institute dedicated to studying gender in media and researching the imbalance of females in the film industry. We wonder if she was aware of the festival’s HIGH HEELS ONLY red carpet policy. Last year, women in flat shoes were turned away from the event. Another noteworthy and insulting IMBALANCE in the treatment of females.

Cannes Film Festival Carol Cate Blanchett Rooney Mara Todd Haynes

“FAR FROM HEAVEN” DIRECTOR TODD HAYNES MAY HAVE DONE IT AGAIN!

Three of our favorite people created a movie together that they showed in Cannes to considerable fanfare and a standing ovation. Can’t WAIT to see it! The guy in the middle is Todd Haynes, the incredible director responsible for one of our all-time favorite movies, Far From Heaven. Heaven starred Julianne Moore and Dennis Haysbert and took place in Connecticut in the 1950’s. It was gorgeously photographed and incredibly sensitive. Haynes is masterful at creating a midcentury vibe. His latest is called “Carol” and it concerns an aspiring young woman who works as a department store clerk, and falls in love with an older married woman. It takes place in the 50’s in New York City. Rooney Mara (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) plays the young clerk and Kate Blanchett plays the older woman. Kate’s dress at the premier is a knockout, by the way.

Cannes Film Festival Catherine Deneuve

CATHERINE DENEUVE: HERE COMES THE JUDGE

Catherine Deneuve is starring in the movie “La Tete Haute” or “Standing Tall” that OPENED the Cannes Film Festival this year, and it was directed by a woman. The story is based on ten years in the life of a disadvantaged juvenile in the French social system. Deneuve plays the non-glamorous role of a judge who is committed to mentoring the young fellow. We’re not crazy about Catherine’s outfit, but she still has that beautiful hair and skin.

Cannes Film Festival Heidi Klum Martin Kristen Vito Schnabel

HEIDI KLUM AND VITO SCHNABEL: BRING ON THE BUBBLY!

Heidi Klum arrived at the Nice airport dressed in bellbottoms and MORE than ready to party at the Cannes Film Festival with her 27 year old boyfriend Vito Schnabel. Between yacht parties she’ll host an AMFAR fund raising event. This jet set life style is exactly what she was missing when Heidi was dating her bodyguard Martin Kristen. Heidi and Martin split on good terms (she probably gave him lots of severance pay) and he moved on. Martin reportedly has a job as bodyguard for Ellen DeGeneres and Portia deRossi. No romances are likely to develop THERE!

Cannes Film Festival Eva Mendes Lost River Ryan Gosling

RYAN GOSLING GOT A HARSH DOSE OF REALITY IN CANNES

Ryan Gosling’s directorial debut was not exactly a smash success at the Cannes Film Festival. “Lost River” was harshly reviewed although some writers conceded that there were moments of magic. Just not enough. It’s the story of a struggling single mother (played by Christina Hendricks) in battered Detroit who gets caught up in a nightmarish world of deviation. As a whole, the movie was not well received by the audience either – they booed at the end. Eva Mendes, who costarred in the film, was conspicuously absent from Cannes so she couldn’t console her boyfriend. This couple refuses to walk a red carpet together -if indeed they still ARE together.

Cannes Cannes Film Festival Sharon Stone

SHARON STONE BRINGS CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR TO CANNES

Sharon Stone, 56, is having the time of her life in Cannes, dressing up and hopping from one yacht party to the next. And why not? Europeans consider her to be a huge movie star and they roll out the red carpet for her. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that she always looks incredible. Sharon just finished a movie in Italy and her next project is playing the first female vice president in a TV movie called Agent X.

Blake Lively Cannes Film Festival Ryan Reynolds

BLAKE LIVELY AND RYAN REYNOLDS: GLAMOUR COUPLE AT CANNES FILM FESTIVAL

Blake Lively is a supportive wife – she dressed to the nines in her black and white gown, perfectly coordinated to Ryan Reynolds’ tux, for the Cannes premier of his movie “The Captive.” Ryan looks a bit pensive – his movie isn’t getting top notch reviews, but he really doesn’t have to worry. He has four more films in the works, so his future is bright. They really make a handsome couple…
