Cara Delevingne glows in elegant red dress at Oscars
Cara Delevingne is stepping into her glow, days after opening up about her sobriety journey on the cover of Vogue.
The model stunned on the champagne carpet at the 2023 Oscars Sunday in a red, off-the-shoulder Elie Saab gown with a sky-high slit and sleek bun.
Earlier in the week, the model, 30, opened up in Vogue's April issue that she had a wake-up call shortly after her milestone birthday after seeing paparazzi photos of herself looking haggard in September.
“It's heartbreaking because I thought I was having fun, but at some point it was like, ‘OK, I don't look well,' ” Delevingne, 30, said in the cover story published Wednesday. “You know, sometimes you need a reality check.”
Oscars host skewers Academy for lack of female best-director nominees
Girl power behind the camera (or the lack thereof ) is a hot topic at the Oscars.
Jimmy Kimmel, host of the 95th Academy Awards, took aim at the absence of female filmmakers in the ceremony's best director category Sunday night.
Kimmel highlighted the snub while poking fun at “Avatar: The Way of Water” director James Cameron being a noshow at the Oscars.
“Some of the cynics are saying (James) Cameron isn't here because he didn't get a best director nomination,” Kimmel said. “While I find that very hard to believe about a man of such deep humility,” he joked, “he does have a point. How does the Academy not nominate the guy who directed ‘Avatar'? What do they think he is, a woman?”
