through chiffon. She matches that with red shoes and lipstick. Not for her the lavish gown or expensive gemstones. Tere are only her smouldering eyes and the wildly exciting personality she exudes that define her animal sign to perfection. Born a Metal Monkey, Eva Green is French, has a twin sister and has always been drawn to highly dramatic roles that highlight the dark side of the feminine mystique, deep, shadowy and also dangerous.

CATE BLANCHETT PLAYS THE DIVA TO
PERFECTION She just won the Oscar earlier in the year for her performance in a Woody Allen movie about a wealthy socialite who falls on hard times. In Cannes last month, Cate Blanchett, the awesomely talented 45 year old actress from Down Under worked hard to promote her latest movie How To Train Your Dragon Part 2. Trough the two days, she has taken great care over her appearance because honestly she looks a trillion dollars on the Cannes red carpet, truly the big- time Hollywood diva dressed to the nines and looking aloof, untouchable. On the second day, she followed a faultless walk on the carpet with some super strong diva behaviour and critical words for the Press. The lady has had it up to her
international megastar and it should surprise no one that her disapproval at the lack of appreciation of women beyond their motherly personas is getting a great deal of press coverage. She also complained that cameramen were scrutinizing her red carpet attire up and down too repeatedly. Well, grand fashion is very much a part of any Film Festival. It comes with the territory surely? Nevertheless, diva- type behavior also adds to the ambience of Cannes.

She felt dismay at how working mothers like herself were being increasingly stereotyped; she expressed disappointment at questions that focused on her ability to maintain a balance between work on high profile films and being a mother of her three sons. “It’s a certainly a question

on film, there is a whole raft of judgment in that a mother is a particular archetype or that every mother is the same,” Cate Blanchett told a packed Press conference at the prestigious Awards Show. “Tat,” she emphasized “was complete rubbish! Every mother is NOT the same.” Cate has been happily married to her husband, screenwriter and playwright Andrew Upton for 16 years. Tey have three sons, Dashiell, 12, Roman, 10, and Ignatius, 6. She was critical of the fact that
“women are still paid less in practically every industry.” She declared the current situation made her feel like she was back in the Middle Ages. “I am an actress at a Film Festival. I can cope with the questions, I’m a big girl. But it does surprise me that we’re still asking those questions,” she went on. Cate Blanchett is a very influential
They personify the current generation, young, stunning and so in lov e. They personify the romanticism of Hollywood and they were in Cannes together to attend the premiere of Te Captive. It has been barely two years since their wedding and there is no denying they bring added colour and glitz, a
new kind of glamour to the festival, looking every bit a newly-minted Hollywood power couple. Blake and Ryan exude beautiful charisma and style.
AND WOULD CANNES BE COMPLETE WITHOUT AN APPEARANCE FROM
JENNIFER LAWRENCE? Is anyone surprised the producers of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay organized a photocall starring their hot property Jennifer Lawrence at the Film event? If you look closely at the pictures of this merely 23 year old, you can see she is bone tired. It shows in her eyes, but she is young and her body is still strong and resilient. Jennifer poses with her handsome hunky costars Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson, and to give them credit, they sure look good… just distracted and not having fun! Ah dear kiddos… being famous sure is hard work!
