Here are some photos from the Cannes photocall for Crimes of the Future, David Cronenberg?s latest futuristic/body-horror film. Crimes of the Future stars Kristen Stewart, Lea Seydoux and Viggo Mortensen, and they all came out for Cannes. Kristen has become a real fixture at Cannes in recent years and I get the feeling that she enjoys this part of film promotion. Plus, it?s not like she has to worry too much about what to wear. Chanel just sends her terrible sh-t and she wears it. I am so ready for this brand-ambassadorship to be over. K-Stew and Chanel never fit together. This suit is so dumb!
Anyway, ahead of the Cannes premiere, Kristen chatted with Women?s Wear Daily about Cronenberg, her engagement and her style. Some highlights:
Working on Crimes of the Future: ?People associate David with body horror, and sort of a critical eye on the world that we live in. But what is always present is desire and sensuality, there?s always a reason why he?s stepping toward fear. In this movie, it just feels like a testament to his entire life. He?s given so much in every film he?s ever made.?
She doesn?t have some big career plan: ?You step toward something because it intrigues you, there must be an intellectual reason why, but you never really know how to articulate that until you?ve made the film. It?s just having that question mark inside of your body going, ?Oh, that wants to come out.??
She?s gotten more comfortable in the public eye: ?I think it?s an evolution. It?s kind of nice to be uncomfortable in public because it really forces you to be confrontational with your most inner self, and you?re not allowed to ignore who you are. It?s sort of like you shine a light on something and so you really have to stare at it. I?ve gotten comfortable with being uncomfortable. You just sort of have to find a way to exist in any space. I probably would never have done [that] if I wasn?t an actor, I would always just sort of default and settle. It?s nice to sort of always be like, ?stay on your tippy toes, lean in, like try to reach for the stars.? I know that sounds totally clich, but if you?re not forced to, or if you?re not encouraged to and supported throughout, you won?t.?
Her ?brave? fashion: ?I would feel worse not doing it. I would feel more scared being tamed.?
Her ambassadorship with Chanel: ?I?ve been allowed to excavate my own story within Chanel?s continuous stories,? she said, noting there are several awards shows a year with different looks and themes and she looks for pieces, not trends. ?The reality outside of a narrative is interesting, because when I watch a show it seems like a movie. Anytime I ever feel curious about a certain look or averse to a certain look, they always encourage me to just take my own path. I never feel dressed by another person. I never feel like I?m selling a product. I always feel encouraged to like, you know, find myself,? she said of her relationship with the house.

I don?t find Kristen?s style to be brave at all? That?s fine, every person doesn?t have to be some brave, avant-garde fashionista. Sometimes you can just like pretty things and want to wear flattering clothes. To me, the problem with Kristen?s work with Chanel is that the house is too safe, too boring, too stuffy for her. She needs thrift store, vintage Balenciaga and the latest punk streetwear. By wearing Chanel on every red carpet, it?s like she?s trying to bring a punk edge to the staid, rich-bitch-at-lunch Chanel energy and it just falls flat.

Here are more photos from Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker?s wedding weekend extravaganza in Portofino, Italy. They basically rented out Dolce & Gabbana?s Portofino compound, and I would assume that the paparazzi were invited too, because so many of the photos from the weekend were very close-up. The photos of Kourtney in dark red are from the rehearsal dinner, the pre-wedding dinner or whatever they?re calling it. But there was also a huge wedding reception and party on Sunday night. Which means I get to talk about my favorite thing about weddings: the cake and the food. Here?s the cake, which Machine Gun Kelly put on his IG Stories:
Considering how tacky everything was at this wedding, I?m surprised by how normal and boring the cake looked? It?s just an all-white, tiered cake with red rose petals strewn around the base. It?s kind of pretty, but it doesn?t look particularly appetizing. I haven?t seen any gossip about the flavor.
Interestingly enough, Kylie Jenner gave people a real look at the wedding food! Kylie was on IG-Live, showing the food stations at the reception. Kourtney and Travis arranged for fresh pasta stations to make everyone?s food to order. So you could stand there and watch the sauce come together. Time consuming! But not really the worst. There were also fresh cannoli which were filled to order with different creams (yaaas) and I think there was gelato or ice cream too.
All in all, not the worst wedding food we?ve heard about from celebrities. The biggest problem from the pasta stations was?the portions. I absolutely pray that those weren?t the real portions.

I would have hoped that in the year of our lord Beyonce 2022, we would be done with pearl-clutching over religious imagery? Getting mad about the monetization of specifically Catholic imagery has been done before. People got so mad at Madonna. People still get mad at fashion designers for ?misappropriating? crosses and images of the Virgin Mary and such. But here we are people are in their feelings about Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker?s Portofino wedding. What offended me about the wedding is that it was sponsored by Dolce & Gabbana. That alone is tacky as hell, but it?s especially galling because Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce are racist AF and problematic AF. But sure, let?s talk about Kourtney?s Virgin Mary veil.
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are being called out for ?mocking? Catholicism with their lavish Italian wedding ceremony. While saying ?I do? on Sunday, the reality star wore a white Dolce & Gabbana mini dress with a dramatic veil, which was emblazoned with the image of the Virgin Mary ? a nod to a tattoo her new husband has inked on the top of his head.
While Barker, 46, has spoken publicly about his ties to the Catholic faith, it?s unclear whether Kardashian, 43, is a member of the church. However, the Poosh founder has shared plenty of texts about faith, quotes and Bible passages via her Instagram Stories over the years.
?Kinda weird that kourtney [sic] wedding is like this catholic ?aesthetic? like the Virgin Mary on her dress and her wedding veil ??? one person wrote on Twitter. A second added, ?I just really feel like Travis & Kourtney [sic] wedding is mocking the catholic religion? They don?t symbolize religious people at all, just feels like mockery. I?m not catholic but just doesn?t sit right with me.?
Another fan said they were ?happy? for the newlyweds, but argued that ?liturgical garments used during mass are not something fashionable.?
One person even said they were ?offended? by Kardashian?s short gown. ?I?m just going to say it point blank. Kourtney Kardashian?s use of the Blessed Mother in her outfit(s) during her wedding weekend was extremely offensive to me as a Catholic ? I have a right to feel offended by it,? they wrote on Twitter.
Barker, for his part, previously told Vice he was raised Catholic. ?I got the Virgin Mary tattooed on my foreman when I was 18, 19. And I was brought up Catholic,? he said in a November 2015 interview. ?I definitely pray; I believe in God. I definitely think I was blessed ? So I?m not at church every day and I?m not pushing religion on people. But I believe in God and I pray and my kids pray.?

I mean? Travis was not dressed as the pope! Kourtney wasn?t wearing a nun?s habit. Are Catholics really bothered by this? Kourtney?s Mary veil was actually based on one of Travis?s tattoos. All of their wedding clothes were made by ?good Catholics? Dolce & Gabbana. While I didn?t care for Kourtney?s wedding dress either, that was mostly because I hoped she would at least go slightly more traditional. This is her first real wedding, after all. Then again, I thought everyone in that family looked tacky as hell.

Emma Thompson is doing press for her film Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, which comes out in a couple of weeks. As Kaiser mentioned, the film?s premise is that Emma?s character hires a sex worker to help her have her first orgasm. It will also be the first time Emma has appeared nude in a movie. One might think it took Emma until her 60s to work up the courage to be naked on film, but she said that she wasn?t ever offered the opportunity. According to Emma, she?s been told her whole career that she doesn?t have the right body to disrobe. She said shes been judged harshly her whole career and by her 30s, the press said she?d let herself go. But Emma said she hadn?t given up, she?d just stopped starving herself.
Emma Thompson has experienced her share of body shaming.
The two-time Academy Award winner, 63, recounted male executives telling her she didnt have the right kind of body for sex scenes as she spoke to The Times about her new movie Good Luck to You, Leo Grande.
Ive never really been offered sex scenes, she said. As my mother said, Ive basically played a series of good women. I do cerebral. And I have also never conformed to the shape or look of someone they might want to see naked.
And by they, I mean male executives. Im too mouthy, not pretty enough, not the right kind of body. And, crikey, you are constantly told what kind of body you have, Thompson added.
She also recalled enduring disparaging comments about her body from the media for the better part of her career.
In one interview I did, the male journalist wrote that Id put on a lot of weight since I appeared in Fortunes of War, and that my legs were now like tree trunks, and that Id let myself down, Thompson said. I was 31 and, quite frankly, no longer starving myself. I dont think anyone realises quite how thin most actresses are in real life. They look quite? unreal.
[From People]
We?ve heard these stories about what execs say to women and yet, every time I hear them, I?m shocked. I agree that people don?t know how thin actresses are. Nor do they know the measures they have to go to stay that way. It?s not that actresses come off as frail or brittle in person, but their figure has to have no bad angles. My heart hurts thinking about the demands made on these women and the critiques they hear. The larger problem is, those critiques are passed on to all of us. When a non-actress-sized woman hears someone tell a thin woman that her legs are ?like tree trunks,? she?ll only see herself as even more flawed.
The People article talked about how Emma and her co-star, Daryl McCormack, got comfortable for the nude scenes. They and director Sophie Hyde all got naked and rehearsed that way after discussing their bodies and their relationships with their bodies, including what they liked and disliked. That sounds like my version of hell given my own body issues, but it must have been incredibly freeing for them. I like this new journey for Emma. I like that?s she?s dictating what?s desirable now. Like when Diane Keaton did her first full-frontal nude scene at 57, I?m sure we?ll be phrasing this as how brave Emma is but it shouldn?t be brave, it?s just a choice. And the best part is, it?s a choice Emma got to make on her own terms.
