Cannes Bans Red Carpet Selfies But Will It Work???

Description

Vanity Fair reports that Cannes is banning the practice of red carpet selfies. Thierry Fremaux, who heads up festival, called red carpet selfies “ridiculous and grotesque.” He's declared that they degrade the prestige of Cannes. Celebs gliding around the Cannes red carpet in their fashion finest are often stopped by fans to pose for a selfie. Sometimes the celebs are willing. Other times they politely decline. But a hallmark of Cannes is that fans are able to stand close to the action. This as opposed to the Oscars, where fans are relegated to bleachers. Fans in close proximity and an expectation of couture on the carpet means that selfies - while now against the rules - most likely will continue to happen.
