Uma Thurman, John Travolta and director Quentin Tarantino reunited in Cannes at the
Clouds of Sils Maria premiere, as the cult film is being feted at the film festival.
A darling of the French film fest, Tarantino celebrated the 20th anniversary of
Pulp's Palme d'Or. He and Travolta and Thurman treated fans to an outdoor screening on the beach. Pizza was handed out before the movie started and Tarantino declared, "Now rip out a joint and light it up!"

IT'S OVER THE TOP AND WE LOVE IT!
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West did NOT pull a fast one tonight and tie the knot at Versailles, they just celebrated with friends and family at the most famous palace in the world!
Guests were invited to the Chateau de Versailles for a private concert by Kim's fave, Lana del Rey, who performed her hit song
Summertime Sadness among other tunes.

Former
Vogue editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley outlined the entire day in his diary submission for
Vogue.com, writing about lunch at Valentino Garavani's Chateau de Wideville:
"Kim and Kanye’s entourage, a processional of nine black cars, came down the grand parterre promptly at 1 p.m. lead by one of Valentino’s staff in a golf cart. Out stepped the bride-to-be in a long gray and oxidized Valentino bronze lace dress with the most beautiful gray suede stiletto court pumps, her hair in a ponytail and her beautiful daughter, North, in her arms dressed in anthracite gray and tights, no shoes. The groom escorted his bride-to-be—also in Valentino, made cool with a black leather shirt buttoned to the top, and black shiny oxfords. As the staff, about five men in black suits, stood with green umbrellas in the misty drizzle, the black fleet of cars continued to pour out Kardashian family and friends."
Wedding guest Rachel Roy Instagram'd this photo of the scene inside Versailles' Hall of Mirrors.
The fashion detail (which we love) goes on and on in Talley's piece, but we'll skip to the end of the day's first event, teasing the evening festivities:
" As the helicopter whirred overhead, and Kanye’s personal film and photograph crew took pictures, the family and bridal party slowly piled into the cars to get dressed for a 6:00 p.m. departure from Paris to an unknown destination. When asked about certain details, Kanye said only “I don’t know what you are talking about?” like the cat that ate the canary (yet this cat had a solid pavé diamond and gold grill inlaid on his bottom molars). You couldn’t call it a rehearsal dinner—it called for black tie and starts at 7:00 p.m. Destination unknown to every guest, who gets his own personal security and chauffer. Off to the next big moment."
Of course that turned out to be the dinner, drinks and fireworks at Versailles for which, Talley says, Kim and Kanye will become "legend":
"... it’s a moment of wonder every second. Each guest has his own personal chauffeur with an S500 Hybrid Mercedes-Benz. Private planes are at the ready for some destination in Italy tomorrow. And to top it all, Versailles with a V, and then some. Mr. West turned it into his home. He threw a great party, ending in lavish fireworks near midnight."
Off to Italy!!!
Fireworks at Versailles, concluding Kimye's pre-wedding party

Kim Kardashian's clothes are practically falling off! Is that a robe or an actual outfit? We shudder to think that's what she is wearing to her wedding rehearsal dinner!
Wearing virgin white, the reality star was less than dressed as she prepped for pre-wedding events at the Palace of Versailles on Friday night in France. Let's get real people -- Kim's breasts are practically falling out of her silken ensemble.
On second thought, we aren't sure if breasts are the right word for her oft-photographed orbs of flesh. Maybe something like tatas, fun bags, chichis would best describe Kim's favorite accessory?
The 33-year-old is all set to marry Kanye West in the wedding of the century on Saturday. The
Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has been prepping all week for the extravagant affair. She's looked calm and collected all week but in these pics Kimbo looks like a deer in headlights! Is she feeling a bit of the wedding jitters?!
Seeing Kimmy K wearing
revealing clothes is pretty much par for the course, but almost exposing your breasts at your rehearsal dinner?! That seems a bit inappropriate even for her! Can she just put them away for a night? Apparently not!
The wedding party is currently at Versailles for a private tour and pre-dinner event and then they'll move on to the
Chateau de Louvecinennes for a private dinner. Tomorrow, the entire wedding party will depart for Florence, where Kim and Kanye will tie the knot at the
Forte di Belvedere.
UPDATE: Reports have been saying that Kimye is exchanging their vows in Italy. But photos of the grounds of Versailles show that an ostentatious set up is happening -- so it's quite possible that the duo has pulled the wool over everyone's eyes and are getting married at Versailles, which is the the wedding location that had been previously speculated about for months. However there are also photos of a platform and chairs being set up at the spot in Florence. Are they having TWO weddings? Leave it to Kanye to keep us on our toes!

Baby got back!
Kristen Stewart is putting her back into it (literally) for a new role in the tension-filled drama
Clouds of Sils Maria. And we've got a look at the sexy new film, which just premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. At the red-carpet premiere K-Stew and the film's other stars, Chloe Grace Moretz and Juliette Binoche, all looked ravishing in their dazzling duds.
The movie, which is directed by Olivier Assayas, follows an aging actress Maria Enders (Binoche) who signs on to be in the revival of the play that made her famous twenty years previously. While the play is the same, everything else is different this time around. Maria will now be playing the role of the older woman and a young Hollywood starlet (Moretz) will be the lead. In addition, Maria has a very intense relationship with her assistant Valentine (Stewart) -- who appears to be manipulating the actress at every turn -- and the two go into the Swiss Alps to work on the play.
The sexual tension between Binoche and Stewart is palpable in the trailer -- and we'd be interested to see where the film takes their relationship.
Clouds of Sils Maria does not currently have a release date, but we believe it will be hitting independent theaters shortly.

#Awkward!
Jaden Smith caught a flight out of LAX yesterday, and the teen was peppered with questions about his parents Will and Jada being investigated by Child Protective Services after his 13-year-old sister Willow's bedroom Instagram with 20-year-old Moises Arias went viral!
The 15-year-old stayed mum on the issue, which is probably best if you've ever been lucky enough to read any of his wise tweets!
We wonder where he was headed? We wouldn't be surprised if he was en route to Paris to join rumored girlfriend Kylie Jenner for Kimye's big wedding this weekend!

Must feel good!
Bruce Jenner got an unexpected surprise in Paris last night when fans asked for his autograph and showed him some attention, and we bet the former Olympian was thrilled that for once he wasn't in the shadow of his famous family.
The 64-year-old was doing his best to look hip with slicked back hair and a leather jacket, and we've gotta say he looks happier than ever following his split with Kris. Although, when we caught the momager shopping in the City of Light the other day, she was sporting her wedding ring for the first time in months, so we have to wonder if the couple might be giving it another shot?
The Kardashian de-facto patriarch better enjoy it while it lasts, because this weekend it's going to be all about Kim and her extravagant wedding!

Be still our hearts!
Justin Bieber attended last night's amfAR gala at Cannes, and the singer ditched his trademark shirtless with gold chains look in favor of a sophisticated suit!
The Biebs has been flirting up a storm with all types of beautiful ladies since he arrived at the film fest, and if you believe the rumors, it's because he's on a quest to see how many hotties he can bed!
The Canadian sensation apparently told a pal he "wants to bang as many models as possible", according to
Hollywood Life.

Lights! Cameras! Fashion!
The stars were out last night for amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala during the 67th Cannes Film Festival in France. The 21st annual bash, which was hosted by Harvey Weinstei raised a record-breaking $35 million, which is up from last year's intake of $25 million.
Up for auction this year was a seat for a trip to space on Virgin Galactic in 2015 with DiCaprio, which went for $700,000. That's some beaucoup bucks!
Stars like Adrien Brody, Adrian Grenier, Carla Bruni Sarkozy, Marion Cotillard, Michelle Rodiguez, Rosario Dawnson, John Travolta, Kelly Preston, Jane Fonda, Justin Bieber, Kellan Lutz, Jessica Chastain and of course Leo all dazzled at the glittering bash.
