The Cannes Film Festival is in full swing, and prior to what we are now calling shoe-gate, where women in flats were turned away from the screening of the lesbian-themed Carol (insert irony here), we'd pulled photos of several of our favorite actresses (most of whom who've played queer at some point) working the red carpet at the glitzy, time-honored schmooze-fest.
Cate Blanchett crushing it.
The legendary Isabella Rossellini.
Blanchett, just because.
Natalie Portman is as perfect as ever.
Speaking of perfect -- Emily Blunt is there for her FBI/mob film Sicario.
Rooney Mara on the carpet for Carol.
Mara and Blanchett - just stunning.
Salma Hayek - always a crowd-pleaser.
Stunning actress and former Miss World - Aishwarya Rai.
Behold, Charlize Theron.
Ex Machina's Alicia Vikander.
Mad Max: Fury Road's Zoe Kravitz with Charlize.
