Bella Hadid and Heidi Klum bring the glamour to Cannes premiere

The supermodels were out in force during the Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday night as Bella Hadid and Heidi Klum attended the La Bataille de Gaulle, L’Age de Fer premiere. 

Bella, 29, led the stars on the red carpet and looked incredible in a white lace mermaid gown which plunged down to her navel. 

The model put on a daring display as she went braless in the dress which was held together by a black brooch. 

Heidi, meanwhile, 52, wowed in a blue gown and black heels as she attended the premiere with her husband Tom Kaulitz, 36.

Model Irina Shayk, 40, exuded glamour in a champagne coloured silk dress, while Bar Refaeli, 40, dazzled in a strapless bejewelled dress.

Actress Ruth Wilson, 44, commanded attention in a pink satin floral gown which had voluminous sleeves.

Former Love Island star Zara McDermott, meanwhile, cut a defiant figure, after becoming the victim of a vicious AI deepfake campaign.

The former Love Island contestant, currently in a relationship with One Direction star Louis Tomlinson, was pictured accepting a platonic kiss from Joey Essex at a recent event, which sparked wild cheating rumours.

The innocent exchange has also resulted in the emergence of an unsavoury online deepfake featuring Zara and her co-star locked in a passionate embrace. 

But despite the drama, it was business as usual for the star as she graced the red carpet for the premiere of the film La Bataille de Gaulle, L’Age de Fer.

Zara put on a showstopping display in a plunging white gown, with a dramatic train.

Hours earlier, the star was making the most of the sunshine in the French hotspot, heading out for a stroll in a Muma World Midori Stellio minidress and a Dolce & Gabbana Lucia shoulder bag.

De Gaulle is an upcoming two-part biographical film directed by Antonin Baudry, co-written with Bérénice Vila. 

It’s based on the nonfiction book A Certain Idea of France: The Life of Charles De Gaulle by Julian Jackson. It stars Simon Abkarian as Charles de Gaulle. 

The first part, Tilting Iron (French: L’Âge de fer, lit. ‘The Iron Age’), had its world premiere at Cannes and will be followed by its theatrical release in France by Pathé on 10 June.

This year for the Cannes Film Festival, Demi Moore joins Hamnet director Chloé Zhao and actor Stellan Skarsgård on the jury.

Organisers unveiled the nine-member jury that will deliberate on the films in competition at the annual French Riviera festival in May.

As previously announced, South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook is president of the jury. 

Along with him, Moore, Zhao and Skarsgård, the jurors are: Irish-Ethiopian actor Ruth Negga, Belgian director and screenwriter Laura Wandel, Chilean director and screenwriter Diego Céspedes, Ivorian American actor Isaach De Bankolé and Scottish screenwriter Paul Laverty.

Speaking to the Daily Mail at the opening press conference, Demi said she felt ‘tremendously honoured to be here’. 

She said: ‘It’s such a beautiful experience and one just to be surrounded by cinema and the love of cinema, and the joy of diving in and being surrounded by those who share that is just – I just felt like a joy. 

‘And who can complain about the beautiful view of this incredible place? But yes, I just feel tremendously honoured and I’m super excited. I really – I feel like a little kid getting to play a grown-up.

‘You know, prior I had only ever attended the Cannes Film Festival once, and that was only as someone’s plus one. And so to be sitting here today, I am really, really tremendously honoured.

This year, the Cannes Film Festival will honour filmmaker Peter Jackson with a Palme d’Or.

Festival organisers announced Jackson as a recipient in March for what they hailed as ‘a body of work that blends Hollywood blockbusters and films d’auteur with extraordinary artistic vision and technological audacity’.

The Lord of the Rings director, in a statement, called the honour ‘one of the greatest privileges of my career’.

Last year, Cannes gave honorary Palme d’Or prizes to Robert De Niro and Denzel Washington. 

This year’s edition runs for twelve days from May 12 to the 23rd.
