The night the A-list let their hair down: Angelina Jolie and Naomi Campbell left dishevelled after their big nights out in Cannes

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Ready for her bed: Angelina Jolie looked tired and dishevelled as she called it a night after a busy and long day at the Cannes Film Festival


After a hard day's work squeezing into a long frock and holding a smile for the cameras on the red carpet, most people would be ready to kick off their heels and relax.

Which is exactly what Angelina Jolie and Naomi Campbell did - after letting their hair down a few hours before.

The actress and the supermodel were snapped looking weary and a little bit worse for wear as they made their way back to their hotels after a very, very long day in the French Riviera city.



Before and after: Angelina looked fresh-faced and flawless as she arrived at the Tree of Life premiere... but didn't look quite so radiant a few hours later


Miss Jolie looked ready for her bed as she climbed into the back of a car, her stunning chocolate brown dress piled up all around her in the back seat.

She looked less than her immaculate self with slightly dishevelled hair as she and partner Brad Pitt left a restaurant and made their way back to their hotel.


Partied out: Naomi Campbell looked tired and ready to call it a night as she was taken back to her hotel in the small hours


From composed to crying: Naomi looked glamorous and happy on the catwalk at the charity show, but was reduced to tears by the end of the night


And supermodel Naomi Campbell fared no better, looking equally as knackered and ungroomed as she also called it a night.

Miss Jolie, 36, and Pitt, 47, had had a very busy night as they attended the premiere of his new film The Tree of Life at the Palais des Festivals.

They spent ages posing for the cameras on the red carpet before the screening and after the film too, as a gallant Pitt led his gorgeous leading lady down the stairs and into the path of the flashbulbs.


Was a lovely evening: Pitt has a huge smile on his face as he leads Angelina out of the restaurant as fans try and get their autographs


They were then whisked off to the five-star L'affable restaurant to celebrate.
And either Miss Jolie was just absolutely shattered or she'd enjoyed more than a few glasses of wine with her meal.

Meanwhile, in another part of town, Miss Campbell was seen instructing her driver as she got into her car and headed back to her hotel.


Centre of attention: Angelina looked stunning in her chocolate coloured gown as she posed for the cameras


The model, 40, had a busy day, starting with catwalk duties at the Fashion For Relief Japan fundraiser.

The Londoner took to the runaway in two revealing black dresses and a monochrome lace creation before changing into jeans and a limited edition T-shirt that had been designed by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, proceeds from which will go to the Japan Red Cross.

She then changed into a very short little black dress as she attended the Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend event hosted by Chopard at the famed Nikki Beach club.

Miss Campbell then headed to Baoli beach where she partied until calling it a night and being driven home.

Nelson Mandela inspires Naomi Campbell

Nelson Mandela inspires Naomi CampbellSuper model Naomi Campbell has revealed that she looks up to former South African president Nelson Mandela for inspiration when times get tough for her.

The British beauty has formed a close bond with Mandela since their meeting in early 1990s and he fondly refers to her as his "honorary granddaughter".

She says his fight for freedom during South Africa's apartheid gives her the strength to overcome her troubles, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I have to pinch myself sometimes because who in the world doesn't want to know Nelson Mandela? But I've been extremely blessed to have been in his presence many times...He's someone who I often think about when things get tough and life isn't full of roses. Nothing can be as hard as what he went through," she said.

"Now, I don't have his constitution for forgiving. I hope one day to acquire that. But I don't hold grudges either. When things happen, I just kind of want to move away from them for a while and hope that things will come back in a more positive light," she said.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has sparked wedding rumours

Naomi Campbell plans 1 million honeymoonSupermodel Naomi Campbell has sparked wedding rumours after booking a month long "honeymoon" with boyfriend, Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin.

The 39-year-old model has booked a luxury holiday which will cost a whopping 1 million pounds and she is calling it a honeymoon, reported Sun online.

"The honeymoon planned to end just before Christmas, is costing close to 1 million pounds because they will only use private jets and stay at the best hotels," said a source close to the couple.

Rumours, that the English supermodel will be marrying Doronin, known as Russia's Donald Trump, have been doing the rounds ever since she moved to Russia earlier this year to set up house with the business tycoon.

The couple first met at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival and attended the star-studded A-List birthday dinner held for the legendary South African leader Nelson Mandela. Soon after, the pair became inseparable, famously vacationing on Vladislav Doronin’s yacht off St Tropez in the South of France last summer in clear view of the paparazzi.

Naomi Campbell poses naked in fur

Naomi Campbell poses naked in furOnce an anti-fur activist, supermodel Naomi Campbell is set to ignite a debate after posing naked - with just a Russian sable fur.

The 39-year-old catwalk queen has reportedly posed in a coat made from Russian sable in an advert for a luxury New York furrier Dennis Basso, reports the Daily Express.

She had once famously declared she would rather go naked than wear fur, however, Campbell backtracked when PETA targeted designers.

"I felt that they went too far and I thought, I didn't want to be a part of this campaign any more," she said at the time.

Campbell has been branded a hypocrite by Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife Heather Mills, 41. But Basso said: "Women who want something beautiful are only ­interested in the final product."

Naomi Campbell: Fashion favours fair skin

Fiery supermodel Naomi Campbell has attacked the fashion industry and glossy magazines for sidelining “black beauty” in favour of fair-skinned models. The 37-year-old said even she found it harder to get onto the coveted front cover as editors of magazines like Vogue consistently chose less prominent white models for news stand impact.

And she has vowed to set up her own modelling agency in her beloved Kenya in an attempt to redress the balance. “Black models are being sidelined by the major modelling agencies,” she told local journalists at a press conference in the beach resort of Malindi, Kenya, where she is on holiday.

“It is a pity that people don’t appreciate black beauty”. She added: “I even get a raw deal from my own country. For example, I hardly come on the front pages of London’s Vogue magazine. "Only white models, some of whom are not as prominent as I am, are put on the front pages” Campbell, notorious for her temper tantrums and who has earned a lucrative living as one of the world’s most famous black models, was speaking at the luxury hotel owned by former boyfriend Italian billionaire Flavio Briatore, the head of the Renault Formula One team.

A regular visitor to Malindi, she is now expected to fly to Nairobi to scout for talents among modelling agencies. “I don’t want to quit modelling until I find that black models get equal prominence and recognition by the world media and information instruments” she added. Born in London, and a model since she was just 15, Campbell first appeared on the cover of Vogue aged 17 in 1987. She last made the cover five years ago. Several African models have done phenomenally well.

These include Alek Wek, from southern Sudan, Waris Dirie from Somalia and Iman, also from Somalia and the supermodel wife of singer David Bowie. But, even the model agency Storm acknowledged she may have a point. “There is a growing ethnic diversity, but it’s not happening quite as fast as was predicted,” said Storm director Simon Chambers. “None the less we do expect the very best black boys and girls in the industry to reach the highest echelons of modelling - like Naomi and Alek have done”.

Miss Campbell, who is with the IMG agency, said she had now begun contacting scouts to help set up an agency that would find and train women to become models. “I believe there are pretty girls from your lovely country who can grace the international catwalk and the front pages of fashion magazines with proper strategies,” she told the Kenyan press.

A spokesman for Vogue said they had no comment.
