Andie MacDowell Ariana Greenblatt Cannes diane kruger Fashion Irina Shayk

Cannes: Diane Kruger wore a strange custom Prada with a headpiece

Diane Kruger is a regular at Cannes every year. I assume she’s getting paid somewhere along the line, or maybe she just loves to return to the film festival where it really came together for her. In any case, Diane made her debut at this year’s Cannes last night, Day 3 of the festival. She usually brings it, style-wise. Um, she did not bring it this year. She wore a custom Prada dress which… is basically a crime against attractive women. It looks like Diane’s chest is bandaged and they just threw a dress over the bandages. I kind of wonder if the “bandages” were a last-minute add-on, given Cannes’ new dress code – maybe the original look was very “exposed” and Prada was like “f–k it, we’ll build in a weird boob halter.” The worst part, in my opinion, is the headpiece. It’s giving synchronized swimming.

Andie MacDowell in custom Alberta Ferretti. Love her, love her silver-grey hair, she’s such a beautiful woman… and this dress is incredibly unflattering. I’m so sorry.

Ariana Greenblatt in custom Cong Tri, with Chopard jewelry. Classic, elegant, simple. Killer bob as well – it might even be a “f–k ass bob.”

Irina Shayk in Elie Saab – this is honestly the best dress she’s worn so far in Cannes. But I cannot get over Irina trying to do “wet look hair” at Cannes. Either that or she genuinely has wet hair two nights in a row. Did someone forget to pack their hair dryer?

Luma Grothe in PatBo with Messika jewelry. I’m a sucker for a gold dress, especially the plated or scaled dresses. This looks so cool!

Elaine Zhong Chuxi in Elie Saab – I love it when the girls really commit to the princess look for Cannes, like a full ball gown and Disney princess vibes.

Cannes eva longoria Fashion Halle Berry Heidi Klum Irina Shayk Zoe Saldana

Cannes: Halle Berry wore a tragic & puffy Celia Kritharioti mullet dress

Here are more photos from Cannes Day 2. So far, I haven’t been too impressed with the glamour or fashion, which adds to my theory that Cannes is in its Bummer Era these days. It doesn’t help that many women probably have to wear their backup dresses, because Cannes organizers announced (on the eve of the festival) that there is a new ban on big, voluminous dresses and sheer/body-exposing fashion. Halle Berry even said that she had to change plans for her look on opening night. Well, I don’t know if she also had to change her planned outfit for Day 2, but holy sh-t. She wore this Celia Kritharioti Couture which is… AWFUL! I’ve seen a lot of commentary about Halle’s wacky style these days, but what’s crazy is… she still has that incredible figure, she’s still an extremely beautiful woman who looks much younger than 58. But she’s lost her style mojo and now she wanders around red carpets in sh-t like this.

Eva Longoria in Elie Saab. I love this? Beautiful color, glamorous, well-styled. I could nitpick the tailoring, but overall, one of the better looks I’ve seen at Cannes.

Irina Shayk in vintage Yves Saint Laurent – while this is somewhat better than her previous Cannes looks, it’s still not great? Her styling is still tragic – my hair looks like this ten minutes after washing it. Irina looks so tired!

Zoe Saldaña, the reigning Best Support Actress Oscar winner, turned up with her husband. Zoe wore Saint Laurent – an incredibly basic black dress, jazzed up with a black leather jacket worn off the shoulder. Blah – but I wasn’t impressed with her style during the awards season either.

Heidi Klum in Elie Saab. Nope. Unflattering! It doesn’t fit her.

Bella Hadid Cannes eva longoria Fashion Halle Berry Heidi Klum Irina Shayk

Cannes: Bella Hadid wore Saint Laurent & 118.68-carat Chopard emeralds

Here are some photos from the Cannes Film Festival’s Opening night. They let Quentin Tarantino get on stage and officially open proceedings, and Leo DiCaprio is already in town too, which means Cannes really is “open.” Bella Hadid was my pick for standout of the first red carpet. Bella always goes to Cannes – she has contracts with some of the sponsors, and I’m pretty sure she’s paid to attend events and “pretty up” the festival. Bella wore a custom Saint Laurent dress which is kind of blah (to me). I think it was meant as a sort of blank slate so the focus would be on Bella’s jewelry – she wore a gorgeous pair of Chopard earrings. Apparently, we’re looking at 118.68-carat emeralds. Bonkers. Her makeup is SOOO good in these pics. Her new caramel-colored hair really suits her.

We’ll probably have lots of mentions about the new Cannes dress code and how it’s enforced, but Halle Berry got the memo too late – she’s on the Cannes jury, so she’s been organizing her Cannes looks for a while. She told reporters that she had to set aside her planned Gaurav Gupta look for the opening ceremony because the dress was too big. That’s one of the new rules – no “excessively voluminous” dresses. So Halle wore this black-and-white Jacquemus which would look like a circus tent on most women, but Halle is pulling it off.

Someone who never pulls off any look at Cannes? Irina Shayk. It’s insane – Irina is beautiful and, like Bella, she gets paid to show up and pretty up these events. But year after year, they put her in terrible, ill-fitting gowns and then they style her to look completely unhinged. Her gown here is Armani Privé and it’s fine-ish. But her hair!! My god.

Eva Longoria wore Tamara Ralph Haute Couture – it doesn’t fit her correctly?

Some women decided to go big, even with the ban on voluminous gowns. Heidi Klum wore a big, stupid, pink Elie Saab gown which should have been banned! But I love QianHui Wan’s Wang Feng Couture gown. So whimsical & cute!

Irina Shayk Tom Brady

Irina Shayk & Tom Brady are done, they ‘fizzled out’ a while ago, by the sound of it

Irina Shayk reportedly threw herself at Tom Brady when they were both guests at a June wedding of a mutual friend. By July, they were bumpin’ uglies in LA, with Irina flying out to spend a weekend with him. Over the next month-and-a-half, they would travel to see each other, and they even spent a weekend in London at one point. Irina’s people sounded excited about the romance, and sources told People that Tom is her “dream guy” and she loves dating him. Well, we’ve heard very little about Tom and Irina for the past six weeks or so. I was really rooting for them, but they could not survive the summer of splits.

Tom Brady and Irina Shayk are no more … calling it quits on their brief, but super attractive romance. Sources connected to the former pair tell TMZ the two eventually “fizzled out” after some time together, no drama or scandal … it just came to an end. The signs have been on the wall recently that things were likely over … as each has spent a lot of time in separate cities.

Earlier this week, Tom was spotted in Miami and Irina was in New York. Obviously, it’s a quick flight … but the fact we haven’t seen them together is a telling sign.

It was back in July and August when things really heated up between the two — she spent the night at his place in Los Angeles, got affectionate in his car and even took a trip overseas … spotted coming out of the same London hotel.

Some started to wonder if Irina had gotten back together with her ex, Bradley Cooper, early last month when she posted a pic of him on social media. At the time, sources told us Irina and Tom were still together … and don’t forget, she’s got a kid with Cooper, so they maintain a level of friendship.

[From TMZ]

Now Bradley Cooper is with Gigi Hadid, which felt like a “reaction” to Irina and Tom. Basically, I still kind of wonder if Irina would simply prefer to just get back with B-Cooper and have a second child with him. That is her dream. But yeah, it probably won’t happen anytime soon. As for Tom and Irina… I kind of like the way they conducted that, keeping it simple and straight-forward. I wonder why they fell apart? It could be that it simply took too much effort. I don’t think Tom likes to make an effort.

Irina Shayk Tom Brady

Irina Shayk thinks Tom Brady is ‘her dream guy, she loves dating him’

To me, Irina Shayk is refreshingly straight-forward. Maybe it’s a Russian thing, but she doesn’t seem to have secret motives or some hidden agenda. What you see is what you get and she doesn’t appear to play games. She’s not coy, she doesn’t play hard to get. She sees an interesting guy, she brazenly flirts with him. She gets asked to fly out for a date, she’s on the plane. She’s also pretty straight-forward with how she approaches her media and PR – oftentimes, I get the sense that Irina is just calling up some People Magazine editor, telling the person how she’s feeling about this or that, and that’s it. Well, I think that’s what happened here. People Mag wanted an update so Irina gave them an update – she considers Tom Brady to be her “dream guy.”

Tom Brady and Irina Shayk’s romance is going strong. Shayk, 37, is “impressed with Tom,” a source tells PEOPLE, adding, “He is her dream guy. She loves dating him.”

As the summer winds down, the romance between the former NFL quarterback, 46, and the model is seemingly heating up.

“They work around their schedules and meet up wherever they can,” the source tells PEOPLE. “Irina doesn’t mind traveling to see him. She is very excited about their relationship.”

Last week, the couple were spotted together at a boutique London hotel. Brady and Shayk spent two days together at Twenty Two Hotel in London’s Mayfair area before leaving the hotel separately last Tuesday, with the retired athlete photographed leaving through a side entrance at 7:20 a.m., and Shayk departing from a different side entrance five minutes earlier.

[From People]

Only a beautiful Russian model could come on this strong and not scare a guy away. But I get it – I’d love it if more celebrities would approach relationships this way. I wish more regular people would too. Irina is like, yes, I adore him, he is my dream guy, I will fly anywhere he wants. Are her girlfriends like “honey, you should play hard to get” and Irina is like “no, don’t play hard to get with a man who is hard to get?”

Irina Shayk Tom Brady

Tom Brady & Irina Shayk had a New York date night at Sushi Azabu

I really love the gossip world’s apathy about Tom Brady and Irina Shayk. We were supposed to be scandalized, I guess? Or we were supposed to really care about this “hot new couple.” To be fair, it’s not like people hate Tomrina or Trina (or whatever we’re calling them) – we wish them well on their grown-up adventures. News at seven, Tom is dating another beautiful model months after the last model divorced his ass. Well, here’s more news: Irina and Tom had another date, this time in New York. Their previous dating adventure was in LA.

Tom Brady and Irina Shayk went on a romantic sushi date mere days after their romance was exposed, Page Six can exclusively reveal. An eyewitness tells us the former NFL star and the supermodel enjoyed a “private and ensconced” dinner for two at Sushi Azabu in New York City’s neighborhood of Tribeca on July 28.

“I was dining at the sushi counter, and as I was finishing my meal, Tom Brady was coming in,” the spy shares, adding that restaurant employees immediately escorted the retired athlete to a “private room.” A few minutes later, as our source was “outside, chatting with some friends,” they saw “Irina come in, and she was taken to the exact same private room.”

“It was just the two of them,” our insider explains. “They were just in their own little world. They clearly didn’t want to be around people.”

Our observant informant says the other patrons did not fuss over the celebrities. For the secret outing, we’re told Brady was “dressed very casually, like in a T-shirt, jeans and sneakers.”

Shayk, however, arrived “much more formal and elegant, like [it was] a date kind of situation.”

A staffer at the posh eatery tells us they do not disclose information about their guests, and reps for the stars did not immediately respond to our requests for comment. The famed quarterback, 46, and the runway vixen, 37, made headlines on July 24 after having a sleepover at Brady’s Los Angeles pad.

[From Page Six]

Irina is New York-based, as is Tom’s son Jack (Jack lives primarily with his mom Bridget Monyahan). Tom is a regular in New York because he often visits Jack, rather than making Jack constantly come to him. I would imagine New York hookups are much easier for Irina, and since Tom is regularly in town, they arranged this. I kind of enjoy the pretense of “dating” for these two – I mean, Irina probably spent the night with him on their first date, and it also would have been pretty easy for them to keep their New York dates out of the public sphere. Instead, he’s making a point of wining and dining her. I guess that’s the signal that it’s not just a hookup, they’re actually interested in each other. I find Irina to be very funny in a blunt-Russian way. I wonder if Tom enjoys that side of her? I’m genuinely trying to imagine what their conversations are like.

Irina Shayk Tom Brady

Tom Brady & Irina Shayk were officially bumping uglies in LA this weekend

Back in June, Joe Nahmad and Madison Headrick got married in Sardinia. The wedding reportedly cost close to $13 million, and there were many A-listers there, including Leo DiCaprio, Tom Brady, David Grutman, Serena Williams, Venus Williams and several models, including Irina Shayk. I only heard/read about the wedding because Page Six got a tip that Irina was practically stalking Tom Brady throughout the weekend and she was “throwing herself at him.” Her people made a point of denying that. Well, six weeks later, guess what? Tom Brady and Irina Shayk are happening. They are, how you say, bumping uglies.


There’s a HUGE rollout in TMZ, People Magazine, Page Six and more.

The new summer romance between Tom Brady and Irina Shayk has been brewing for “a few weeks,” a source tells PEOPLE. Shayk, 37, and Brady, 45, “have been in touch for a few weeks,” according to the insider, who says “there is a spark” between the model and retired NFL star.

The source says Brady invited Shayk to “fly out and meet up in Los Angeles,” where the two were spotted cozying up during a romantic weekend. “They spent the night Friday and Saturday at a house” where Brady is staying, the source explains.

“There is an attraction,” according to the source, who adds that Brady and Shayk “have never been involved romantically before” the summer fling began. Another source tells PEOPLE that the two first started talking when they were guests at billionaire art heir Joe Nahmad’s wedding to model Madison Headrick in Sardinia, Italy back in June.

Brady was spotted by paparazzi this weekend cozying up with Shayk in his car after they spent the night together, Page Six and others reported.

The father of three, who has also been linked to Kim Kardashian since his divorce from ex-wife Gisele Bündchen nine months ago, was photographed picking up Shayk at the Hotel Bel-Air on Friday afternoon before the pair returned to the house for the night. At one traffic stop, Brady was snapped caressing Shayk’s face as the two talked in the front seat of his black Rolls Royce. Shayk was spotted leaving the next morning, before Brady later picked up the Russian model again on Saturday afternoon, Page Six reports.

[From People]

You can see some of the photos of Tom and Irina’s California weekend here at TMZ. TMZ also reports that Tom and Irina did meet at Joe Nahmad’s wedding last month, and “A number of models were hitting on Tom, and Irina was one of them,” although her rep denies it. LMAO. Irina really doesn’t want to give the impression that she zoned in on Single Tom, targeted him and proceeded to throw herself at him. Hey, it worked! Overall, I’m sort of impressed by how matter-of-fact this is? While Irina and Tom were aiming for a discreet meet-up, they also weren’t jumping into bushes or hiding anything. They’re both single and ready to mingle – it’s not scandalous in the least.

Meanwhile, sources tell TMZ AND Page Six that Gisele Bundchen “is not happy at all” about Tom and Irina’s new romance. One source did tell Page Six that Tom & Irina’s new thing is “helpful to [Bündchen’s] freedom.” I don’t get any of this alleged Gisele angst? Gisele left Tom, Gisele wanted out, Gisele was completely above-board about everything and she explained every part of how she felt in multiple interviews. I get that “model catfights” sell, but please, give Gisele some credit. I doubt she’s worked up over this.
