These are some assorted photos from the Cannes Film Festival from the past… let’s say, 48 hours. There were a few big premieres, although… I don’t think some of these films are actually in competition. Like, Madagascar 3 isn’t in competition. Lawless is, although the star of Lawless, Ryan Gosling, didn’t show up to Cannes. (Update: Sorry, I thought Gosling is in that movie – guess not). Anyway. These photos aren’t all-inclusive or anything, these are just the dudes and ladies and dresses I wanted to talk about. Go ahead and yell at me.
First up! Salma Hayek (with Francois-Henri Pinault) in Gucci at the Madagascar 3 premiere. It’s very… eh. I prefer when Salma goes for cleaner, simpler styles. This whole look seems very showgirl and drag queen to me.
Gerard Butler was at Friday night’s Haiti Benefit. He’s done a lot of work with charities related to Haiti. I’m surprised he looks so clean and sober, aren’t you?
We need to have a conversation about Tom Hardy’s giant, furry beard. The conversation: I want that beard to be tickling my thighs. End of conversation. (PS… Shia LaBeouf looks gross.).
Guy Pearce!!! He was at the photo call for Lawless. I love him so much. I dig his flannel too, for some strange reason. He looks hot.
Jada Pinkett Smith in Alberta Ferretti. This was my favorite look from Jada for all of her Cannes appearances – and this is just what she wore to the Madagascar 3 photo call! It’s a great color for her.
Jada’s worst look? This Atelier Versace in orange and gold that she wore the M3 premiere. God, that’s just awful.
Jessica Chastain in white. AGAIN. This one is Armani – it’s a beautiful dress, and it would have made a gorgeous wedding dress. Try a different color, Jessica.
And here’s Jessica in gold Gucci. Eh. I don’t hate it, but I don’t love it either.
Charlotte Casiraghi in Gucci, walking the carpet for Once Upon A Time In America. Doesn’t she look so much like her mother? She’s gorgeous. But! She’s a terrible sloucher. I know it’s all “I’m sort of French, I’m royal, I’m beautiful, I don’t have to stand up straight or wear clothes that are tailored.” But still. Stand up straight.

Ryan Gosling is not in this Lawless. He appears in Terrence Malick’s Lawless, a totally different movie with Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman,Christian Bale and Rooney Mara.
I was going to say- How did Ryan Gosling manage to make a movie without anyone knowing about it?!
Where are the European stars? Classy and demure. Who cares about these c and d-listers from US. Hayek or Pinkett-Smith? Who are these people? What is their last movie?
Pinkett-Smith is there to promote Madagascar 3 and her huge ego, Hayek is there to promote her ginormous rack and billionaire husband. I’m no fan of either but they’re hardly considered C or D list stateside.
@ MiMi
Too funny! & so true
Jada is a C lister and the only reason she not a D is because she married to Will.
Salma’s upcoming movie is SAVAGES, an Oliver Stone film. She’s very much A-list.
LOVE Charlotte Casiraghi’s dress. pretty girl. does look like her mother.
Jada always has that look in her eyes like she’d cut-a-bitch just for the pure pleasure of it.
Selma’s dress is beautiful.
It looks as if Jada hss has some work done –cheek implants.
definitely look like cheek implants!
Yeah, there’s always something off about her…wonder what it is.
Jada needs to eat a sandwich. She is way too skinny and sinewy and her body is starting to resemble a 12 year old boy. Also, she’s looking a little harsh in the face.
I love Salma’s hair.
Jessica Chastain has the same colour palette as Taylor swift. White, blush, and glitter.
Girlfriend needs some darker jewel tones to set off the pale skin and hair. A bold green, a cobalt, a lavender. The dresses are pretty but they’re the wrong color for her.
I actually like all of the dresses except jada’s teal one….i hate drop waisted dresses. The orange was is flattering on her skinny.
Yes-it just looks like it’s bunching up or she pulled it up because it’s too long on her. Weirdness.
Have to disagree with your comments on Jada’s dresses. The blue one looks ok, but kind of bland. The orange & gold one is bright and the color looks good on her. We still need some glamor on the red carpet.
charlotte is so beautiful.What a gorgeous face.how can william not saw her.she is way way more beautiful than kate.
She looks just like her mom but with a softer jawline. She is beautiful. Perhaps Harry would be interested.
wow, what a superficial a…. you are. maybe Wills actually cares about what’s inside Kate “far less beautiful” head and heart.
Now go back and eat another porkrind on the porch!!
Woah!
Eat another pork rind on the porch?
Way to overreact there. This is a gossip Website, not “deep thoughts on life and relationships” with Goop or something like that. Sheesh.
Oh, and FYI, it’s “pork rind” not “porkrind”, dummy.
@spincycle
Thanks for edumacatin’ me. now look at the original comment and see if you can find something to correct there and then try to figure out how I got to porkrind. FYI nobody really uses FYI anymore, but since you are so intelamagent, maybe you can help me figure this out, I am so confused, this is not deep thoughts on life and relationships? could it be “Correct-Other-Posters’-writings-and-try-to-belittle-them for-simple-typos-and-therefore-making-myself-feel-superior” website?
yours truly,
Dummy
This exchange was more entertaining than the whole post! Keep bringing on the bitchy-ness!
I’m going to sound like a snotty b*tch here, but I live in the Cote d’Azur and I will tell you exactly why someone like William would turn her down — because she has an ugly personality. I met her once (this isn’t boasting, but we were at the same charitable event), and she was rude and dismissive to everyone and even texted during a philanthropist’s presentation when she wasn’t making a presentation out of her boredom.
She’s beautiful, but unfortunately she’s more likable in pictures, whereas Kate knows how to be gracious.
I’ve always felt that Charlotte looks and style are over hyped because of who her family was. Not that she isn’t beautiful I just don’t see why people fawn over her, especially when she seems so arrogant all the time. She has always been touted as this magnificent beauty, but I’ve never really thought that… exotic is a good word to describe her. Doesn’t really do it for me.
@ Eléonore Probably because people expect the royals to be ugly or average at best. Centuries of inbreeding will not yield pretty genetic results and we have come to accept it as the norm. So when a royal crops up who’s pretty by normal people standards, they are touted as this great beauty who overwhelms all those who behold it.
Thanks for the inside scoop on Charlotte only1shmoo! In this pic she has a smug, fake little smile and gives off the air of someone who is bored to be in the company of lesser beings. Nothing worse than a spoiled brat!
I’m glad someone brought her up. She’s quite pretty now, but I wonder if she will age as poorly as her mother and aunt have. They both were attractive when younger, but rough looking now.
highly unlikely due to her catholicism.
…yes, i know british royalty can marry catholics, but i can’t imagine they would want the future king of england or his brother taking on the issue.
I didn’t realize a prettier face was the criteria for falling in love and picking your partner for life.

Guy Pierce is the best looking guy in these set of pictures.
I agree. Gerry looks better than usual but Guy is hot!
He is. But maybe he could have pulled an appropriate outfit together instead of looking like he’s just back from his side job as a lumberjack.
Jada looks gorgeous. And I have never thought that before. Charlotte C. is positively stunning. Hope her life turns out better than her mom’s or aunt’s.
Good grief Shia get a haircut dude! Grody!
And sit out for a little bit since you’re in the South of France. He could use some color. And then a shower.
It’s nice to see Gerry revisiting his hotness. Keep it up now.
Is Jada’s teal dress wet on the bottom? Or suppose to look like that? It looks like she walked thru a puddle. 😉
“We need to have a conversation about Tom Hardy’s giant, furry beard. The conversation: I want that beard to be tickling my thighs. End of conversation.”
LOL…ahhh…. I spit scrambled eggs everywhere. Thanks, Kaiser. T-Hard is looking very good to me too. He has become a favorite of mine since I saw him in Warriors and Tinker, Tailor. Can’t wait for the next Batman installment.
“(PS… Shia LaBeouf looks gross.)”
Agreed. Despise that guy.
I looked at the photo-call pictures on Popsugar and, if I had to guess, this was a rather intense film set. The guys are all serious and projecting the strength, etc. as though they’re trying to show who was the big c*ck on campus. The more interesting pictures are the ones that show Tommy, Jessica, and LaDouche. If I had to guess, I’d guess that they both have a thing for her…. Jessica looks like she’s eating it up a little too.
AHHHH Guy Pearce! TY for that pic!! 🙂 And I just have to say…what is the deal with Salma Hayek’s husband’s pants?? They are so tight you would think his junk is being strangled!
Thank you for mentioning the pants, I thought I was the only one to notice. He’s got the man version of camel toe.
So true. And it’s so not the time to look like he’s going to jump out of his pants!!
Hello, thank you for this!!! I was going to say the same. I already noticed it at the whole court thing recently over child support for his son with Linda Evangelista. LOL – maybe Salma thinks it makes him look younger and studlier? But he seriously needs a couple extra inches of fabric in his pants’ crotch area. Not as if he can’t afford a good tailor, right? Awful.
Like both his balls and her boobs are screaming RELEASE ME! They are suffocating their privates.
I like Charlotte’s and Jessica’s but agree it washes her out. Sad state of cinema when Madagascar 3 is at Cannes!
Jada’s orange dress isn’t bad but orange is really hard to pull off. I don’t like it.
Guy looks like he’s about to work in the fields. Although it’s just a photocall, he looks really under-dressed.
I like the lines and cut of Selma’s dress I just don’t like the textures. It’s too busy. If it had been just one material it would look a lot cleaner and still emphasize her curves.
Kai.ser, now you are just getting greedy. You can keep your Fassbender, and I’d keep loving my Tom Hardy. But seriously WTF with all these bushy beards in the UK? What’s going on, cold spring? I mean I appreciate that he does not have a bun but still???
finally, the bulge in Elmer Fudd’s pants explains it all!
Haha, good one.
Charlotte is beautiful but does have bad posture. Jada in that first picture looks skeletal in the face. That color looks horrible on her. Her face looks different.
I literally LOL’d at the picture of Shia LaDouche. Dude looks like a drowned rat.
Thanks Katherine! I kept thinking what he reminds me of, and a drowned rat it is.
i thought all royals are born straightbacked or once married into royalty, one as well as received a corrective surgery on posture.
i remember fergie once said that she was often put through gruelling posture and deportment lessons. how to stand like a royal, sit like a royal, etc. (well, her exit from the royal family notwithstanding, i thought this is true across the board; all engineered to show that royal families are better at everything than commonners).
Charlotte Casiraghi proved that its not true.
does charlotte reminds anyone of eva green? that majestic beauty
Is Jada still married? No ring.
It is always interesting watching women on Red Carpets. Some of them have this presence that you can’t miss. They own it. The cameras are on them and they just know how to pose and command the surroundings making it theirs..
I don’t see that many women so far that have that Wow factor. Some pretty dresses, but noting memorable that I will be talking about in the future. I’m sure next week no one will recall many of the fashions or who wore them.
I miss the WOW..and that doesn’t come from an over the top dress. It is the woman in the dress.
Gerry looks the best of all the guys. The others look terrible. Especially Tom Hardy.. his clothes fit terribly and I don’t find him attractive. Guy should have worn something that said I’m at a premier. He looks like a construction worker not a Movie Star.. maybe that is the problem. These men don’t make me think Movie Star.

I like Jessica a lot.. so talented and pretty.. but man how many Red Carpets has she done. Considering last awards season. I think it is too much. I don’t thinks she is overexposed, but I think she is doing way too many events. I think she needs to pull back a bit. Make her appearances at events AN EVENT. It just feels like.. Oh there’s Jessica again.. and again.. and again.. etc.
I’m not tired of seeing Jessica yet. She has been working really hard for the past two years so she has the right to have some fun. Besides, she is there to promote her movie, if she didn’t she would be called unprofessional. I rather see someone that is grateful for the opportunities that are coming their way rather than stars who are constantly reminding us that they have much more important things to do.
So far from what I’ve seen, Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Connely, and Fan Bingbing showed the wow factor.
Regarding Jessica not taking about her not being at Cannes.. yes she is promoting her film. I was talking about all the other events and premiers that are not related to her films. She seems to go to everything.
and I agree.. I think this is an exciting time for her. But I hate for her to be doing too many projects back/back. Sometimes when actors have so many films coming out at once the audience doesn’t go to see them. It get confusing.
Charlotte Casiraghi and Salma Hayek are my absolute favourite. It’s nice to see the latter get passed the whole baby court case drama. I love how her husband is holding her tight. Charlotte is perfection though you can tell, it’s a gig for Gucci not wholehearted enthusiasm at being in public without a horse.
Jessica has a very ethereal, radiant aura. Tom was whispering in her ear and making her laugh during the press conference. Shia was fixing her dress on the red carpet. Both guys behaved as if they have a thing for her, especially Tom.
It’s surprising how Gerry manages to clean up so well each time.
Shia is as feminine looking as Jada is masculine. Yuck.
+1
+2 XD
Salma: I can’t pinpoint what’s bugging me. So I’ll go with your analysis.
GB: He’s a “Forever Eww”
TH: Making me want to sing Monty Python’s Lumberjack song.
SlaB: HAHAHAHAHA!
GP: Ohhhh, Why have I not been paying him enough attention?
JPS: Versace wins for me. Anything, as long as I don’t look at her face too much.
JC: Not much to say just…alright.
CC: Slouchy and she does look exactly like her mother. That’s not good. JMO but Grace Kelly’s genes did not replicate well.
I saw Shia/Tom/Jessica’s interview on Le Grand Journal and found Shia to be suprizingly sweet and gracious while Tom was giving me big douche vibes.
Shia is morphing into Professor Snape. Looking quite the pale, greasy creeper here.
Well said. He kind of reminds me of the stereotypical villain from a silent film. I was sort of hoping there would be an included shot of Shia stroking his hair and mustache… but alas 🙂
Don’t you folks who keep talking about Gerry being sober now know that he has been sober for over 10 years? That he was reportedly in treatment recently for being hooked on pain killers. And he most likely started taking those after that serious surfing accident, which nearly killed him a few months ago while filming “Of Men and Mavericks”. I’m so sick of the press running him over the coals for being a drunk.
Shia looks skinny!?
Guy looks hot! Plaid does that man good. Love Tom, but his clothes look like leftovers from his “Bane” size. No matter… we know whats underneath the layers of cloth and mountain-man beard….Kaiser you made me think really bad thoughts 😉
I never thought Shia was good looking but I could sort of see the appeal – but now he is starting to look downright strange and homely. Age is not his friend.
Shia and Tom look repugnant. Gerald – eh. I used to love him but he lost me a long, long time ago. Still he knows how to wear facial hair and look decent.
I’m sorry but Tom’s beard looks like what I assume the hair between HIS thighs looks like. EWWW!
Salma Lord Salma…I like this dress. I do. I don’t like that she smooshed her boobs in there so tightly it looks like they are fighting for air or attention or relief. But it’s great for her shape and dark looks. B because that boob issue is a detractor.
Jessica Chastain:
The Dior dress is white, this dress is not. It’s off white. I am no white until Memorial Day gal myself and it’s all my gram’s fault. She thought you were vulgar if you broke the rule LMAO. But I love her choices. She’s considering her skin tone, hair, the weather and how things will photograph. I’m glad because during awards season I was like ew! Both of her looks are PICTURE PERFECT. I can’t stop scrolling up to see her in that Gucci dress. The only think I don’t like is the hair style. A Grecian braided updo with a simple hair ornament would have really made that dress so much more.
Jada:
I like the orange dress better. It’s so much more representative of her style but not too much. She can go overboard at times. I love the color of the aqua dress. Blue is my signature color. BUT I don’t like the dress on her. The trend right now is band coverage in strange places. She’s short, and I don’t think it’s hitting her where it should. There is nothing wrong with wearing these types of dresses, but you’ve got to think about the photographs.
Charlotte: Perfection. Almost. I love the dress, I love the color, but not on her. She’s young and gorg, she can afford to go a little bolder. I would have loved this in a different color.
I’ve always hated Salma’s over the top look. Did she really need implants? She’s been thrusting them in our faces ever since. She must have suffered from something before, because she cannot get enough of the over-the-top look, gag. About Jada, I actually love her in the orange much better than the blue, but the orange dress isn’t styled well, and I hate the big gold band at the chest, ugg. BTW, darker skin tones usually look great in orange. No, NOT a good look for Shia…is this just a bad hair look or is something else wrong? I don’t remember him looking this homely before, hmmm.
Why, oh why Tom Hardy!
