Jane Fonda, 73, dazzles at Cannes
Friday 13 May 2011
The actress made a grand entrance at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday, playing up to the bevy of cameras and working the red carpet in a knockout figure-forming gown.
Her Emilio Pucci maxi dress which featured sheer panels on the front looked both sexy and elegant and proved that all those work-out videos have done the trick.
The actress has been very open about relying on surgery in the past, admitting to having breast implants in the 1970s, as well as having more surgery on her chin, neck and under her eyes last year
Jane Fonda, 73, looked incredible on the red carpet as she attended the premiere for Sleeping Beauty at the Cannes Film Festival
Speaking openly about her surgeries, Fonda says she did it so that her appearance would match her youthful energy.
The actress chose an Emilio Pucci maxi dress which hugged her curves perfectly.
"I didn't think that I would want to have anything done, but it actually got to the point where I would startle myself when I saw my reflection in the mirror," she told the Daily Mail.
"I felt so great after a good night's sleep, and suddenly I'd look at a reflection of myself and didn't look like I felt."
Fonda has released 24 fitness videos since 1982 - and they seem to be working!
Also in attendance and dressed to the nines were actresses Diane Kruger, Emily Browning, Bryce Dallas Howard and Rachel McAdams, who wowed the night before in Marchesa.
But all eyes were most definitely on Fonda, who teamed her dress with a pair of dangly earrings, gold clutch bag and matching shoes - we're seriously impressed!

- The Real Mr & Mrs Assad: Channel 4 Dispatches
Channel 4 Dispatches reveals a portrait of a golden couple who have become global hate figures. The programme shows intimate footage of President Bashar al-Assad and his wife Asma as they've never been seen on British television before, and images that help explain why the West bought the idea they were true modernisers. When Bashar took the reins of power after his father's death in 2000, the West was drawn into a hope and belief that Syria would be a new force for change in the Middle East. The Assads were seen as a glamorous couple with modern Western morals and values; he was hailed a reformer, she was the 'Rose of the Desert'. Key leaders and figures in the West welcomed the young couple, convinced that the softly spoken London-trained ophthalmologist and his beautiful British-born former investment banker wife would bring reform and modernisation to a country that had been run by an iron-fisted dictator for nearly 30 years. But it seems the West was duped. Instead of a transparent and progressive leadership, what has emerged during a year-long bloody uprising is evidence of the regime's gross systematic human rights abuses, including widespread killings and torture, while the Assads look on. Channel 4 Dispatches investigates the extent of the Assad family's culpability and the chains of command that link the President and select inner circle to the brutal crackdown.

- Afghanistan: The Great Game - A Personal View By Rory Stewart
Afghanistan: one of the most isolated and barren landscapes on earth is a strange place for an empire or superpower to invade. But for three of the greatest powers the world has seen, it became an unlikely target and an enduring obsession. The 19th century British invasions into Afghanistan, immortalised by Rudyard Kipling as "The Great Game", ended in huge loss of life and British retreat, and set a template for the perils of incursion in this mountainous country. In this two-part series, author, journalist and former Deputy Governor during the coalition's occupation of Iraq, Rory Stewart MP travels to Afghanistan to uncover the fears, the paranoia and perceived threats that led three very different Ssperpowers: Britain, Russia and the United States into Afghanistan from the 19th century to the present day.
