66th Annual Cannes Film Festival 2013 Gossip

[YoninahAliza]

The whole thing with Leo really grosses me out. I know it's just a rumor but still, if there is even a shred of truth, well thats a bit awful of him to hit on models who are so much younger then him. Poor Cara, having to even be linked to such gossip. If its true, I don't blame her for turning him down, I mean she's what, 20??? That's younger then me! eep!

She's already 20? Gosh I thought she was 16!

Didnt Leo auction a date with him at the Amfar Gala?

Why was Lea Seydoux crying at the press conference of her film?

 

[clarissea]

About Toni & DiCaprio, well, they're just talking but... idk
They're pretty, young, models so yes, of course guys are into her, that's not a secret...

Why was Lea Seydoux crying at the press conference of her film?

I didn't listen to the whole thing but the director was talking about the actresses' play in the movie and being very nice and full of compliments, I think she was moved by what he was saying!

Cannes : DSK on the red carpet
http://www.leparisien.fr/dsk-la-chu...ouge-25-05-2013-2834829.php?pic=4#infoBulles1

The article is in french, I couldn't find anything in english but basically, DSK is in Cannes, he was on the red carpet of "Only lovers left alive" yesterday night...

Maybe you don't care but as a french woman, I find this very shocking and disgusting..

If they let Polanski in Cannes, is it really that surprising that they'd let DSK in? Two disgusting human beings.

 

[clarissea]

Unfortunately, you're right...

If they let Polanski in Cannes, is it really that surprising that they'd let DSK in? Two disgusting human beings.

I know enough about DSK, but one thing that has always bothered me about Polanski is the continued support he receives from Hollywood, the so-called, self-proclaimed beacon liberal-mindedness. And yet, no one seems to find him reprehensible because what? He's super talented? It's ridiculous. And to both of them: Endless

 

[pixiedust1603]

I think most of the people who signed the Polanski petition do not know the true extent of his crimes. That obviously is no excuse as just knowing what he did in its most basic and simplest form should be enough to blacklist him. Emma Thompson signed it because her friends pressured her to and retracted it when she read about what he truly did.

 

[chickadee]

I imagine a lot more were pressured, but the big names, the ones who are essentially autonomous and don't have to rely on anyone to make their careers anymore, I can't imagine they were forced to do anything. I know Western culture likes to say that we're better than places like India and places in Africa when it comes to dealing with sexual assault, and we are. I wouldn't go so far as to say as we live in a "r*pe culture," that smacks somehow of a fear tactic, but we certainly don't always apply appropriate understanding or outrage to sexual assault, especially when it's perpetrated by powerful men, as DSK and Polanski are evidence of. I'm not saying these guys have to walk around with a scarlet letter tattooed on their forehead, but it's just...I don't know...amazing to me that they're not just walking around, going on with their lives, but basically thriving, while their victims live with the horrors they caused every day.

 

[Fantomette]

The people in charge of the festival denied inviting DSK.
The most probable scenario is that he was the guest of the woman pictured with him. She was invited because she's in charge of the social marketing and online communication of the french public television. It baffles me because it means she's media-savvy and couldn't not know the reactions his presence would get (I'm no sure about DSK himself, he may be a bit delusional).

The thing that makes the whole situation even weirder is that Abel Ferrara was in Cannes to show the trailer of his movie on the whole DSK scandal.

 

[HeatherAnne]

And finally Leonardo lands another model. Whew. Though the world was going to implode there. For such a seemingly smart guy, he sure is vapid when it comes to his women. Not to mention how stupid Toni Garrn ends up looking. After his week of advances at hot young things, you're the winner!, uhh congrats?

 

[Deleted member 1957]

who is DSK and what did he do? As for Toni Garn I highly doubt she will end up looking foolish...I mean Gisele and Bar Rafaeli are far from unhappy in their careers

French natives might be able to elaborate or give you better information, but from what I know, he was accused by a maid of r*pe while he was visiting New York a few years ago, but was never convicted. According to the NYPD, she lied in her initial statement which cast a shadow over her credibility. But shortly after that, another woman (a reporter, I think) accused him of trying to come onto her. He was also investigated or suspected of being connected with a prostitution ring and a gang r*pe. These subsequent investigations were also eventually dropped.
