ACTRESS DEFIES FILM FESTIVAL RULES BY SECRETLY WEARING PALESTINIAN COLORS
May 22, 2024GOD BLESS THE COURAGE OF AUSTRALIAN ACTOR CATE BLANCHETT!
Defying the rules imposed by the Cannes Film Festival that is currently happening in the southern French town of Cannes, Blanchett had the green colour of the Palestinian flag stitched into the underside of her gown and intentionally revealed it whilst walking the red carpet yesterday, at the premiere of The Apprentice.
Blanchett’s red carpet appearance became the talk of social media due to the colours of her dress. With the red carpet as the backdrop, Blanchett lifted the back of her black and white dress to expose internal green lining – all of which are the colours of the Palestinian flag.
While most media outlets ignored commenting on the dress and the colour combination, social media has been rife with speculation that Blanchett intended to send a message of support for Palestine.
The Oscar-winning actress is well known for her activism and has a track record of showing solidarity with the Palestinian cause.
In October, she signed a letter along with 60 actors from Hollywood, urging US President Joe Biden to call for a ceasefire in Israel and Gaza.
The iconic dress that Blanchett wore on Monday was designed by Colombian French designer Haider Ackermann.
WE APPLAUD SUCH ACTS OF ALLEGIANCE WITH HUMANITY DEFENDING PALESTINIAN RIGHTS FOR JUSTICE AND FREEDOM!
ONE DAY SOON PALESTINE WILL BE FREE!
✊🏼🇵🇸🍉
