Oscar winning actress Helen Mirren attended Jeanne du Barry premiere during Cannes Film Festival opening night and stunned everyone with her new looks.
Once again, the 77-year-old actress, who has given the world of film so much over the years, showed her unique sense of style when she decided to dye her hair blue for the occassion.
The color of her hair, which is usually grey as she embraces her natural looks, matched her outfit, a gorgeous gown designed by Daniel Del Core.
Mirren swept her newly dyed locks high into a Marie Antoinette style Pouf. She did this to match the movie’s French historic theme. The Queen star accessorized her outfit with a silver choker and a fan that had “#WorthIt” written on it, a nod to her role as a L’Oreal ambassador.
Many agree that the actress managed to outdo herself once again with her splendid and glamorous looks that made her appear as though she came right out of a fairytale.
Mirren’s stylist, Lee Harris, who shared a photo of the actress’ new look, wrote, “She knows how to make an entrance,” and we can’t agree more.
Back in 2019, Mirren attracted attention when she appeared with her hair pinkish.
Last year, again for the Cannes Film Festival, she donned extra-long white hair extensions and heavy eyeliner for a screening of the movie Mother And Son (Un Petit Frere).
Back then, she opted for a beaded silver gown and danced alongside actor Andie MacDowell.
In 2021, the actress told Vogue that going gray wasn’t a difficult transition for her. “I have to say it was very easy for me because my hair was always blonde. I was a natural blonde and although it was quite dark at times, in the summertime when I’d spent time in the sun, it would basically go white,” she said. “So the process of me losing the color of my hair was very easy—it just looked more and more as if I had been in the sun, but year-round.”
One thing is certain, Mirren does follow the fashion trends and always looks spectacular.
Woman Risks Everything as Her Horse Faces Drowning See the Shocking Outcome
Anyone who has been to the ocean knows how unpredictable it can be. One of the most dangerous things about the ocean is the tide. If you are in the wrong place at the wrong time, the tide can turn deadly.
The tide can rise quickly, swallowing people and animals in seconds. In some cases, it can lead to a slow and painful death. This is what nearly happened to an 18-year-old horse named Astro.
Astro’s owner, Nicole Graham, and her daughter were enjoying a ride on the beach near Geelong, south of Melbourne, Australia. But soon, the horses wandered into soft sand, which quickly turned into a muddy trap.
Nicole’s daughter and her horse managed to escape, but Nicole and Astro were not so lucky. They sank deeper into the mud, and Astro was soon stuck up to his neck in thick clay, in danger of choking. For the next three hours, Nicole stayed by Astro’s side, fighting to keep him alive.
As the minutes passed, the situation became more desperate. Nicole had to calm her 1,000-pound (450 kg) horse to prevent him from sinking even deeper into the mud. As the tide started to come in, Astro was getting closer to suffocating. He was also at risk of dying from dehydration and exhaustion.
Thankfully, Nicole’s daughter was able to get to safety and call for help. A rescue team and a veterinarian arrived on the scene. The vet gave Astro a sedative to keep him calm, while Nicole stayed by his side, talking to him to reassure him. The team even called a helicopter, but they couldn’t lift Astro because he was too deeply stuck in the mud for a rope to be tied around him.
The rescue team tried hard to free Astro, but the mud was like quicksand, making it almost impossible to dig him out. As the tide got closer, Nicole feared they wouldn’t be able to save her beloved horse.
Then, a farmer arrived with his tractor. In a last attempt to free Astro, they attached a rope to the tractor and pulled. That’s when the miracle happened. Together, Nicole, the rescue workers, and the farmer managed to pull Astro out of the mud.
You can watch the incredible rescue here:
Nicole, who owns 10 horses, often rides along the beach, but this was the first time one of her horses had gotten stuck.
Luckily, this story had a happy ending. But it shows the importance of being careful around the ocean, even in familiar places.
Most of all, this story is a beautiful example of the powerful bond between humans and animals. It shows that love and determination can make miracles happen!
