Demi Moore hit the Cannes red carpet on Friday for the first time in nearly 30 years, having last attended with then-husband Bruce Willis for the premiere of The Fifth Element in 1997. This year is all about Moore as she has a film in the competition courtesy of Coralie Fargeat’s The Substance and official duties on behalf of Chopard.
It was the latter commitment that brought her to the Palais last night. Moore joined the luxury jeweler’s co-president and artistic director Caroline Scheufele and rising stars Mike Faist and Sophie Wilde ahead of the late-night Trophée Chopard gala ceremony at Carlton Beach. Moore was tapped to serve as the godmother of the festivities, a role that saw her take the stage and present the trophies, which are given to next-generation talents. Faist is coming off the success of Challengers and before that, Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story. Wilde...

Don’t be surprised if you see Demi Moore on the Croisette — like, a lot. The veteran actress is set to make a mark at the Cannes Film Festival this year with a film in competition and a packed schedule to match.
Moore stars in filmmaker Coralie Fargeat’s The Substance opposite Margaret Qualley and Dennis Quaid. Little is known about Fargeat’s sophomore feature — she debuted with 2017’s stylish Revenge — other than that it’s being referred to as a feminist take on body horror.
Cannes has given The Substance a late-night slot for its world premiere on Sunday, May 19, confirming a busy weekend for Moore. As previously announced, the actress will also take on the role of godmother for luxury jewelry house Chopard’s Trophée Chopard gala ceremony.

Demi Moore just added another glamorous outing to her Cannes itinerary.
The actress is set to serve as the godmother of the Trophée Chopard ceremony for the luxe jeweler at the Carlton Beach Club on May 17. Created in 2001 by Chopard’s co-president and artistic director Caroline Scheufele, the Trophée Chopard is given annually during the festival “to an actress or actor at the start of their career” as a way to promote the big screen’s next generation and underscore Chopard’s commitment to cinema.

Julia Roberts is sitting on a cozy chocolate-colored sofa in a villa at West Hollywood’s Sunset Marquis two days before the Oscars, gazing affectionately at her newest project. “This is all me,” she says, pausing for a moment and then flashing her unmistakable megawatt grin to confirm that she is, in fact, only kidding.
The Oscar winner did, however, have a hand in the creation of what’s elegantly placed on a luxe tray in front of her: a three-piece Chopard high jewelry set comprising a necklace, earrings and oversized ring (all one of a kind) featuring emeralds, turquoise and rubellite gemstones. The star here — aside from the A-lister who signed on to co-design the collection — is an emerald. Specifically, Chopard’s ethically mined Insofu emerald, a 6,225-carat Zambian stone purchased in rough form by Chopard, from which the green stones have been cut.

The lights were already low inside the Carlton Beach Club tent in Cannes after 11 p.m. on May 19 when a pair of screens lit up and reflected a dazzling sizzle reel featuring the work of Naomi Ackie. The 31-year-old, who started acting in school plays as a pre-teenager, has professional credits that stretch back to 2015, right after she graduated from London’s Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
Ackie’s been working steadily ever since, and the reel featured such projects as her breakout role in Lady Macbeth, The End of the F***ing World, Star Wars: Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker, Master of None, The Score and the most recent IMDb entry, Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody.

“It’s a family dinner.”
So said Cannes Film Festival director Thierry Fremaux close to 11 p.m. while standing on a well-list stage inside a starry Chopard dinner at Carlton Beach on Friday. It definitely had that feel — like a glamorous, diamond-drenched family reunion with a menu by two Michelin-starred chef Bruno Oger and performance by Juliette Armanet — as the luxury jeweler hosted the gathering to award a Trophee Chopard to both Daryl McCormack and Naomi Ackie as validation for their breakout status on the big-screen.
The room was filled with festival relatives in the form of this year’s jury — both competition and Un Certain Regard members like Ruben Östlund, Brie Larson, Paul Dano and John C. Reilly — and veteran attendees like Rossy de Palma and Carla Bruni. And then the official Cannes family like Fremaux, Iris Knobloch and Chopard’s Caroline Scheufele, representing the festival’s partner of more than two decades.

It’s raining in New York and Mariah Carey is in the bathtub.
“Today was stormy weather,” says the elusive chanteuse in kicking off a telephone interview about a new collaboration with luxury jeweler Chopard. Because the topic du jour is diamonds, it’s an obvious question to ask if she’s wearing any at this particular moment because while she is dripping wet, this is Mariah Carey, after all. Answer: Of course she is, darling.
“I’m wearing a diamond bracelet and another bracelet that my daughter Monroe made for me,” she says of a pink and lavender beaded creation from her 11-year-old with Nick Cannon. “It says Lambily on it — that’s for the lambily. We layer with all different things.”
There’s a lot of layers to the conversation that follows. Carey’s Chopard partnership — Happy Butterfly x Mariah Carey Collection — debuted Sept.

Florence Pugh and James Norton gushed over their “Little Women” co-stars Timothée Chalamet and Emma Watson while at the Cannes Film Festival.
The actors spoke to Variety‘s Marc Malkin on the red carpet at the Chopard Trophy Awards, where Pugh was honored. The 23-year-old actress was chosen for the award by a jury consisting of former Chopard Trophy recipients such as Marion Cotillard, Gael García Bernal and Lea Seydoux, Cannes’ director Thierry Fremaux, Variety’s Steven Gaydos, and Chopard’s Caroline Scheufele.
Pugh and Chalamet’s characters Amy March and Laurie wed in Louisa May Alcott’s classic — to little fanfare. “We didn’t have a wedding,” Pugh bemoaned. “That’s still probably yet to come. We’ll have to ask his permission before that happens.”
Although Pugh didn’t get a wedding, the actress did get to wear matching outfits with her co-star, which she said “was the most important thing.
