Many celebrities in attendance wore stunning outfits, while others chose to make more of a statement with their clothes. 70s music legend Iggy Pop was one of the celebrities with a more out of the box approach to their outfit. He wore a low-cut jacket that revealed his bare chest and flip flops. Other celebrities like Cate Blanchett opted to include small details to signify their stance on the conflict between Israel and Palestine.<\/p>\n<p>But one guest stole the show when she arrived in a beautiful black gown with an ultra-long train that featured an image of Jesus Christ. The guest, who has not been identified, arrived on the red carpet for the world premiere screening of \u00a0Le Conte de Monte-Cristo (The Count of Monte Cristo) and caught the attention of many. The three-hour-long film, based on the classic novel by Alexandre Dumas, was directed by Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de la Patelli\u00e8re and met with applause lasting for 12 minutes.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Jesus spotted at the \u2018Count of Monte Cristo\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Cannes2024?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Cannes2024<\/a> premiere <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/56JxOP7H0k\">pic.twitter.com\/56JxOP7H0k<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Deadline Hollywood (@DEADLINE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DEADLINE\/status\/1793316609869615299?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 22, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Photos of the dress began to circulate online where some people where in favor of the dress while others were not.
