This was always going to be a worry as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie never stopped being movie stars. But in a real test of logistics, we are assured the bitter exes NOT be crossing paths at the Venice International Film Festival.

The film festival organizers are putting in place extremely specific plans to ensure the exes will never have to face each other! On Friday, Vanity Fair asked the annual high-end film festival’s artistic director Alberto Barbera about plans the event staff has to separate the stars, who unfortunately happen to have films there at the same time. And they’ve got things scheduled right down to the hour, practically.

Rather than just hoping the two A-listers will avoid each other on the red carpet and at parties, Barbera’s team is laying out logistics to ensure they never even show up at the event on the same day! He told VF that “of course” the two embattled stars’ arrivals will be kept separate, and explained:

“Angelina will be on the first day, on Thursday [August] 29, and she will leave right after with [Maria director] Pablo Larraín to go to Telluride. Brad will arrive only on Saturday, to Venice.”

So, the Maleficent star will be gone and done and off to Telluride Film Festival before the Moneyball star can even show up in Venice. That’s clever! Barbera doubled down with this added assurance, too:

“There is no way that they can cross each other at the Lido.”

Honestly, very smart! Considering these two exes have been battling it out legally in their divorce for about 150 years now (only a slight exaggeration, TBH), and considering their wildly contentious courtroom battled involving their ill-fated Château Miraval winery only ever seems to keep heating up, making sure they don’t get close to each other in Venice is a VERY good idea. And considering how important the festival is for the film industry, it’s clear organizers want to take zero chances on there being any issues that distract from the drama on the screen. Sensible!

Addison Rae is paying homage to the Queen of Pop with this new look!

While attending Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood event on Thursday night in Cali, the 23-year-old TikTok star went for a big and bold style for her walk on the red carpet. She wore a slim pair of black pants, heeled brown mules, and topped off the look with a top notably reminiscent of Madonna‘s iconic cone bra looks!

The iconic Jean Paul Gaultier top was made in collaboration with Lotta Volkova. It’s a light, lavender purple color with ruching and thin, adjustable straps. Of course, the most noticeable part are the bra cups, though, which come to a big, ruffly point!

Ch-ch-check out the look (below):

Fans of the music icon will recognize the homage to the singer, as she’s worn tons of cone bras over the years as a statement of female empowerment — and many young artists have followed in her footsteps. Most recently, the 65-year-old revisited the look on Instagram last year with a similar blue cone bust.

Just like the rest of us, Addison seems to be a big fan of Her Madgesty! What do U think about her red carpet look, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF (below).

We’re taking a brief pause from the rumored It Ends with Us cast feud to talk about some other drama surrounding the film: Bethenny Frankel’s unfortunate wardrobe malfunction at the premiere!

Bravo alum attended the movie event in New York City this week, wearing a pink Dolce & Gabbana dress and matching pumps with a large flower detail on the heels. When Bethenny hit the red carpet for the premiere, she looked absolutely stunning! Check it out (below):

But behind the scenes of this stylish look? It apparently was a complete nightmare! The 53-year-old reality star took to Instagram on Wednesday to reveal the strap of her dress “came off” at the premiere. Oh no! What made the night worse? It poured outside, getting her shoes soaking wet! The rain was so bad she even had to drape a shawl over her head to protect her from the elements at one point. She said:

“I was in the rain. My shoes that are gorgeous are soaked. I can’t go out. This is why nobody takes me anywhere. It’s a freaking disaster.”

Yikes! But beyond her fashion mishap, Bethenny still had fun! As she wrote in the caption:

“PS. Blake looked beautiful and I did pass Anna Wintour by the popcorn stand & audibly gasp… she told me my Met Gala invite is in the mail & we made a date to shop together at TJ Maxx.”

Oh no! Her bag must be ruined, too — she keeps dropping names all over the place! LOLz! Take a look at her It Ends with Us premiere adventures (below):

Blake Lively is giving her hero all the flowers!

At the Tuesday night premiere for her new movie It Ends With Us, she wore a familiar look — the “butterfly dress” made famous by Britney Spears in a 2002 Versace show in Milan. GORGEOUS!

Ahead of showing off the look, she shared a pic of Brit in the dress on her Instagram Stories, calling Brit:

“The ultimate queen who made us all want to sparkle and write and share our own stories.”

Awww!

Blake continued with a message directly to Brit:

“Britney, us millennials all have a story of a moment or of years that you made us want to shine and inspire awe, with strength, and joy and immensely hard work. Thank you for your example and your contribution to women telling their stories. So excited about your Biopic and all you have to come.

Another day, another fashion controversy involving the KarJenner clan!

At the 2024 Met Gala, supermodel Kendall Jenner supposedly made history when she wore an archival Givenchy Haute Couture black dress designed by Alexander McQueen for the Fall-Winter 1999 collection. The stunning piece included a plunging neckline, tassels hanging down her side, and a sheer panel around her midsection that put a little bit of her booty on display. Take a look (below):

The Kardashians star looked amazing! And what made the gown extra special? Kendall claimed to Vogue that she was the “first human” to wear the vintage item as it was never shown on the runway and only displayed on a mannequin before. Thus, the dress was “literally a sleeping beauty” and more on theme than most.

Related: Kendall Jenner Goes Nude On IG — What Does Thirst Trap Mean For Bad Bunny Romance?!

However, the model apparently didn’t have her facts straight, as fashion buffs claimed on social media! They soon discovered someone else actually wore the same dress years ago! Who? Social media users uncovered a snap of none other than Winona Ryder rocking it for a 1999 Flaunt photoshoot! Check it out (below):

Wow!

Kendall wears that dress… but Winona EMBODIES that look! Amazing!

What’s the truth about the archival Givenchy dress, though? Was Kenny really the first person to wear it? At the time, Page Six Style said the 28-year-old reality star was correct. The outlet explained Winona only had a replica of the garment for the Flaunt shoot. But now, the Beetlejuice star herself disputed the report — and called BS on what Kendall said! She insisted in a new cover story with Harper’s Bazaar that she “did wear” the original, saying:

“I heard about that. I do remember that photo shoot. It was with my dear friend [and makeup artist] Kevyn Aucoin. And I did wear it. I have pictures. The photographer gave me some prints. I’m in a tartan in one of them, and I’m in that dress.”

Hmm. Perhaps Kendall was just misinformed! She could have actually meant the outfit was never worn out in public before by anyone else! Obviously, mistakes happen! Or is there a chance Winona was wearing a replica, and she just never knew? Who knows?! We need Kendall or Givenchy to weigh in on the matter now to give us the answers once and for all! End the dress debate of 2024, finally! LOLz!

Get ready for an iconic throwback, Perezcious readers!

Earlier this month, Jessica Alba was joined by her 16-year-old daughter Honor and 12-year-old daughter Haven at the Los Angeles screening of her new Netflix film, Trigger Warning. And apparently, there was a special detail about their outfits for the red carpet that night! They borrowed dresses worn by their momma more than a decade ago, with each of them giving their own spin on it!

Taking to Instagram on Friday, the actress revealed that Honor sported her Prada look that she wore to the premiere of Valentine’s Day in London all the way back in 2007. Her youngest daughter kept it simple, wearing minimal jewelry. As for Haven, she had on her mom’s green plaid Dolce & Gabbana dress she wore to Comic-Con for Good Luck Chuck in 2010. For accessories, the teenager wore a cross necklace and hoop earrings. Wow! Jessica gushed in the caption of the post:

“Throwing it back all the way to ‘07 and ‘10 in the sweetest way ever. For the screening of Trigger Warning, Honor wore my @prada dress from the 2007 premier of Valentine’s Day in London & Havie wore my @dolcegabbana dress from Comicon for Good Luck Chuck in 2010. I loooove seeing my girls wear some of my archived pieces and adding their own touch”

And don’t worry! Jessica included some side-by-side pictures of her and her girls wearing these pieces! Check it out (below):

So what does the tat mean? Well, it’s apparently a swallow, a bird which has come to symbolize loyalty due to their migration patterns bringing them back to San Juan Capistrano every year like clockwork.

Inneresting considering the loyalty her daughters have shown her recently. She had Vivienne Jolie with her on the carpet, as she worked on her production of The Outsiders. Vivienne AND Shiloh both reportedly dropped dad Brad Pitt from their surnames this year. It could be a sign of loyalty with them — especially as fans think they spotted a matching tat on Shiloh’s arm recently! We’re guessing 15-year-old Vivienne doesn’t have any ink yet, but maybe they’ll all get one?

The same security guard who got into a heated confrontation with Kelly Rowland at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this week is back in the headlines! Why? She clashed with a star on the red carpet AGAIN!

Footage on social media showed Dominican actress Massiel Taveras — surrounded by a group of security guards — attempting to adjust the train of her gown, which featured a large portrait of Jesus on it. When the 39-year-old former pageant queen went to pose for the cameras, the female guard got in the way by blocking her with her arm. Much to her chagrin, Massiel makes her way up the staircase with the female guard. Another security member held up her train, which she did not like at all!

Once Massiel notices, she yanks the train away from him and unfurls it again. She eventually appears to become so fed up that she pushes the female security guard’s arm away and gestures for all of them to back off while she fixes her train. Oof.

Once at the top of the steps, she waved at the crowd one last time. And here is where things escalated! The female guard continued to try to push her inside, even putting an arm around Massiel. The TV host then shoves her away before heatedly speaking to her! Watch the two clash (below):

WHOA! Inside the venue, Masiel finally got to stop and take pictures of herself with the gown. Check it out (below):

As we mentioned, the female security in the video will look familiar to many! During the premiere of Marcello Mio, Kelly blew up on the same woman while walking the red carpet because she reportedly “had it” with the security team “being aggressive!” The former Destiny’s Child member later called out the security guard for only pushing her off the carpet, suggesting the incident was racially motivated:

“The woman knows what happened. I know what happened. I have a boundary, and I stand by those boundaries, and that is it. And there were other women that attended that carpet who did not quite look like me, and they didn’t get scolded or pushed off or told to get off. I stood my ground, and she felt like she had to stand hers. But I stood my ground. And that was it.”

Massiel clearly stood her ground, too! What are YOUR thoughts on the latest drama at Cannes, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments below!

Kelly Rowland finally addressed what happened at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.

At the Tuesday premiere of Marcello Mio, the singer became upset with a security guard while walking the red carpet at the film festival. She reportedly blew up on the woman after she “had it” with the security team “being aggressive.” A source explained:

“The people who are assigned to helping stars walk the red carpet were being aggressive and Kelly was trying to ignore it. By the time she got to the last woman she had had it because she scolded Kelly and told her to move when she was trying to wave to fans and help the paparazzi get their shot.”

Now Kelly is sharing her side of the story in her own words! Speaking with the Associated Press on Thursday, the former Destiny’s Child member called out the staffer for only yelling and pushing her to get off the red carpet:

“The woman knows what happened. I know what happened. I have a boundary, and I stand by those boundaries, and that is it. And there were other women that attended that carpet who did not quite look like me, and they didn’t get scolded or pushed off or told to get off. I stood my ground, and she felt like she had to stand hers. But I stood my ground. And that was it.”

Whatever show Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez seemed so intent on putting on a few days ago, after the story of their supposedly impending breakup broke? That’s all over now! In just two days, Ben has now skipped as many red carpets he could have walked with his wife.

J.Lo had yet another premiere for her new sci-fi movie Atlas on Tuesday, and once again Ben didn’t bother to show up on her arm. Monday night’s event was even in El Lay, the same city the Argo director is filming his new movie The Accountant 2. So you’d think that would be the more egregious miss, right?

Well, not so fast. Because even though he would have had to travel to Mexico City to be with Jen on Tuesday night, this time he definitely didn’t have a work obligation! No, the Justice League alum was photographed in Santa Monica having a guys’ nightPeople reported he was with some guy friends at Italian restaurant Giorgio Baldi. And now there are even more deets about his dinner. A witness told the outlet Wednesday afternoon:

“He was in a great mood. He seemed very relaxed and happy. Everyone chatted and seemed to enjoy.”

Huh. Is this a good sign for the relationship? Or a terrible one?

Related: Ben Would Divorce J.Lo ‘On Grounds Of Temporary Insanity’ If He Could?!

Obviously if Ben were miserable, that would be worse. But the idea he’s laughing and having a grand ol’ time while playing hooky from hubby duties? That’s gotta be disheartening if you’re worried the marriage is hanging by a thread, right? Like… what if he’s happier away from her, without all the stress she supposedly puts on him with her rigorous standards??

Either way, it’s clear it’s not just when unwinding. As another source reminds the mag, Ben has “been busy filming this week too” — and he’s been happy-go-lucky there, too!

“He’s professional and shows up early on the set. He seems focused and ready to work when he arrives. He looks very happy and is super friendly with everyone on set.”

Well. What do YOU think, Perezcious readers? Is Ben just a much happier person than he always appears in the press? He’s certainly more buoyant in interviews… usually. Or is the uncomfortable truth he’s got a spring in his step lately because he’s out of that house with J.Lo, living alone like a divorcée again?
