Cannes 2012 Articles
The most boring Cannes OF ALL TIME
I really can’t remember a less interesting Cannes Film Festival than the one that just happened. Maybe it’s because Angelina denied us the opportunity to be LEGGED again, or maybe it’s because the weather sucked over there and everyone stayed inside, actually watching movies, but there was a lack of crazy Cannes stories.

It doesn’t go with Chanel

Joshua Jackson paid $45K for a necklace for Diane Kruger the other night in Monaco at a charity event. They are not engaged. Last night Diane wore Chanel at amfAR. She did not wear her gift. It doesn’t go with the dress. And these wardrobe decisions, they are made weeks in advance. I’m serious. Full Story
Vamping for her boyfriend

Kristen Stewart was rather vampy the other day on the carpet in Cannes for the premiere of her film On The Road. Tonight she took it to another level to support her boyfriend, seen here with his best friend Tom Sturridge, in red and side-breasty for Cosmopolis at the Palais, extending the stretch of bliss that Twi-Hards have been enjoying during Bella and Edward’s tour of the Croisette.

Kylie Minogue: Holy Motors & Timebomb
Holy Motors was my favourite film of Cannes 2012. What’s it about? I don’t actually know. It’s a giant mind f-ck that I can’t wait to see again and again. We can love what we can’t understand, can’t we? Kylie Minogue is in it. And Eva Mendes. Does that make you mad? That Eva Mendes is involved in something (good) that people keep talking about? People are predicting Holy Motors will win the Palme d’Or. Full Story
Granny is perky
Wenn, Bauer
Nicole Kidman looked amazing in Lanvin last night at Palais for The Paperboy. Have you read my breast discussion in the Janet Janet lifestyle post from earlier today? Click here if you missed it. Granny Freeze has never been ample breasted. And now in her mid-40s, as you can see, Granny’s can still stand up like that, so impressively, by themselves. Full Story
Summer Crushing Tom Hardy

Maybe because I haven’t actually had a proper Summer Crush in a really long time. Maybe because it happened so unexpectedly. I mean, Lawless is not a romance, nor will it be sold as one. But the relationship between Tom Hardy and Jessica Chastain is as romantic as you’ll see, more romantic than most intended love stories. Full Story
Twilight's First Cannes
Wenn, Bauer, Fame/Flynet, GSI
Robert Pattinson walked the carpet at the premiere for On The Road last night in support of girlfriend Kristen Stewart and his boy Tom Sturridge. They arrived separately; he first, and she with her castmates later. I don't hate this Balenciaga dress but I also don't love it. It's the colour, maybe? Just not sure it's doing all that much for her. Full Story
Garrett Hedlund in On The Road

I was worried about Garrett Hedlund after seeing TRON: Legacy. That was not a good movie. And he... wasn’t good in it. But he didn’t seem in a hurry to do much else after Country Strong. After seeing On The Road, now I know why. Whoever is managing his career was confident enough in what Hedlund delivered, knowing that once people see this performance, new opportunities would present themselves soon enough. Full Story
Kristen Stewart’s great start to Cannes

YES.That Marchesa she wore at the London premiere of Snow White And The Huntsman was horsesh-t. Click here if you need a reminder and want to shudder. But I wondered at the time if she was saving her load for her first splash at Cannes. Check out Stewart at the On The Road photo call today in Balenciaga pants. Full Story
A Porn-less Pitt Carpet
Wenn, Fame/Flynet
As we all know by now, the Jolie wasn’t with Brad Pitt at the Killing Them Softly premiere last night. We’ll get to that in a minute. Without Angelina, Brad stayed close to his team, preferring to pose with them in a group instead of alone. Not that he blended in...He was definitely the leader. They moved when he moved. Full Story
Kiki & Garrett en route to Cannes
Fame/Flynet
By the time this article is posted, they should probably now already be here. On The Road premieres tomorrow. Here are Kirsten Dunst and Garrett Hedlund at LAX yesterday. So they’ll have tonight to rest and tomorrow it’s the photo call, press conference, the gala in the evening, and a party after that. Full Story
Brad Pitt came as Tristan
Wenn, Pascal Le Segretain/Michael Buckner/Getty
With a little Sonny Crockett, right? I know some of you aren’t feeling it. Me, I’d be so much more into it... but for that gold chain around his right wrist. If not for that gold chain, I’m buying. It’s probably the white belt. I am predisposed to liking a white belt on a man; I think it reminds me of golf. Full Story
Shia in Lawless and his hair
FameFlynet
I saw Lawless on Saturday morning after 3 hours of sleep. I thought for sure I would nod off during the movie. But not even for a minute. I can’t say it’s the greatest movie or my favourite - the excessive violence makes me really uncomfortable - but it definitely keeps you there, and I mean more than just Tom Hardy who. Full Story
Chris Pine has a girlfriend

He made it very clear on Wednesday on the opening night red carpet in Cannes which...I actually just heard about like 10 hours ago. Maybe I’m loopy from my Tom Hardy haze. Or maybe it’s ...only Chris Pine?See I can’t actually decide.Chris Pine is a name, right? We consider him to be in that group of early 30s actors, don’t we? Do we? Gyllenhaal, Evans, Tatum, Hemsworth, Cooper, Gosling, Reynolds. Full Story
