View the slideshow

Everyone, wake up from your Champagne-induced Cannes comas: Brad Pitt is on the red carpet! He showed up in all his shaggy-haired glory, ready for that Riviera sunshine with a pair of boy-band-worthy sunglasses and a tailored tux. Karolina Kurkova was also out and about in — what else — sequins, while Michelle Rodriguez wore a GOOP-like white gown. Click ahead to see those looks and more from the Cannes red carpet.

Cameron Diaz wore an off-white jumpsuit by Stella McCartney to the What to Expect When You’re Expecting premiere in London last night. She accessorized with sandals also made by the designer.

What do you think about wearing pants on the red carpet? Is it too casual? Or do you think it's a nice change of pace?

Tara Reid Couldn’t Find Her Shoes After Diddy’s Yacht Party

By

As is customary with yachting, party guests were required to remove their footwear before climbing aboard Sean Combs's boat in Cannes yesterday. But upon their return to shore, guest Tara Reid found herself shoeless. Clutching her black fur coat, she pawed through the large plastic bins piled high with Louboutin sandals and Armani loafers, but to no avail. Blast, she thought to herself. I knew that Kim Kardashian had her eye on my wedges.* She considered snatching up a nice pair of Jimmy Choos,** but then realized there were too many people watching; instead, she wandered into the parking lot barefoot*** and demanded a piggyback ride to the nearest limo.****

*We have no way of knowing if this is true.
** If this is true, Melissa George says it's okay.
*** This is true.
**** This is not true.

This will be the fashion house's first retail space since closing its U.S. and French stores three years ago.

On Armani’s Supplement Overdose and Succession Predicament

By

You may recall that Giorgio Armani came down with a really bad case of hepatitis back in 2009. In the latest issue of WSJ. magazine, he clarifies that he didn't get the condition the usual way (by a virus), but — far more mysteriously — because he was taking too many "supplements" every morning before going to the gym. His doctor ordered him to stop, and he recovered. According to WSJ., "Armani won't say exactly what he was taking, only that the substance poisoned his liver."

Now he's better. »

HAIR

• Halle Berry on getting hair extensions for an upcoming movie role: "I love short hair — that’s me, that’s who I am. I just feel confident and feel like my best self when I have short hair. But it’s fun to change sometimes. I get a little bored and, as a woman, I want to change my shoes, my outfit, and my hair. And thanks to extensions, it’s easy to do." [Elle]

COSMETIC SURGERY

• Anderson Cooper had "Human Barbie" Sarah Barge (who gave her daughter breast-implant vouchers for her seventh birthday) on his show but ending up kicking her off, saying, "I just think you’re dreadful, and I honestly don't want to talk to you anymore." [HuffPo]

Kristen Stewart Fulfills Her Balenciaga Duties With More Exciting Pants

By

Nicolas Ghesquière tapped Kristen Stewart to be a Balenciaga face back in January, and she's been dutifully wearing the label on red carpets ever since. In March, she showed up to the Balenciaga show in Paris wearing some confusing pants, but they were merely an appetizer for the ones she wore to a photo call today for On the Road in Cannes. According to the barrage of PR notifications we've received, her outfit is composed of a tank top by Juicy Couture, a jacket by Rebecca Minkoff, and trousers by Nicolas Ghesquière for Balenciaga. (Oh, and Kirsten Dunst is wearing Dolce & Gabbana.) Anyway, Stewart sort of looks like she spilled a bowl of potpourri in her lap, but she gets points for effort, no?

Spanish Vogue Has a Hard Time Letting Go

For its June cover, Toni Garrn posed in the spring 2012 Stella McCartney dress that we thought had been around the world and back by now. Anyway, it's summertime! Wasn't there something seasonally inappropriate from the fall shows she could have put on?

New York’s Men Advocate for Equal-Opportunity Vanity

By
Manicure man close-up to the beauty salon

New York's men have long had to labor against the worst kind of injustice: overpriced salon services. But no more, reports The Wall Street Journal. In the past few years, as manscaping has become a more and more acceptable urban ritual, beauty-services professionals have capitalized on the new market, and, in many cases, charged dudes more for a manicure or a wax than they do for a woman. Whether this tax is imposed for the greater difficulty of grooming a man or is somehow exploiting any remaining embarrassment a man might feel for requesting such services remains a matter of debate.

Gucci Re-Sues Guess in China, Italy, and France

Following a Manhattan judge's ruling that Guess owed Gucci $4.7 million for trademark infringement (mere pennies compared to the $221 million Gucci wanted), Gucci has filed similar suits against Guess in China, Italy, and France. Guess CEO Paul Marciano reiterated yesterday that he wished they could've settled this mess outside of court to begin with, so perhaps now the two labels can agree on a settlement price and finally lay this dead horse to rest.
