Oh, BABY!

Eva Longoria was determined to make an impression at the Le Passe premiere at Cannes on Friday, and, boy, did she ever!

The actress had every zoom lens trained on her in an embellished nude Zuhair Murad Couture backless gown as she glided across the red carpet.

WERK!

She sure didn't need any Chopard jewels to make her SPARKLE!

And that's how it's done!

Could Doutzen Kroes look any MORE like a Barbie?!

The Victoria's Secret supermodel attended the premiere of Le Passe at Cannes on Friday, probably for no other reason than to prettify the red carpet.

Job well done!

The 28-year-old looked as seksi as you'd expect in a light pink, plunging Atelier Versace gown with her blonde waves blowing beautifully in the breeze.

Ah, to be young and beautiful at Cannes.

This is a crazy case of life imitating art imitating life!

The Bling Ring premiered at Cannes on Thursday, and it seems like some people were inspired by the true story of a bunch of teens burglarizing the homes of celebs, because more than $1 million worth of Chopard jewels were discovered stolen on Friday.

DAYUM!

The jewels, which were seen on the likes of Julianne Moore, Cara Delevingne (above) and Lana Del Rey during the Opening Ceremony, were going to be lent to various other celebs throughout the duration of the Cannes Film Festival.

Authorities suspect an inside job as the jewels were taken from

Well, it was fun for the few hours that itlasted.

Carey Mulligan went to her dark ways Thursday night at the IFP, Calvin Klein Collection & Euphoria Calvin Klein's Women In Film soiree in Cannes.

The Great Gatsby starlet was rather uninspiring in a strapless Calvin Klein LBD and black Brian Atwood sandals.

Just like Emma Watson, Carey kept the makeup to a minimum and pulled her hair back into a bun.

Sorry Carey, but this is doing absolutely nothing for us.

Can you PLEASE snap out of this Groundhog Day slump and give us something to ooh and ahh about? K, thanks.

Are you surprised to see Rooney Mara at a Calvin Klein event? Ha!

The actress bit back her smile while walking the black carpet at the IFP, Calvin Klein Collection, and Euphoria Calvin Klein Women in Film celebration at Cannes on Thursday night.

The VAST majority of Rooney's past looks have been either black or white, or, in some cases, both, but this time we got to see her change it up ever so slightly.

She went nude!

Roons chose a delicate slip of a dress by the designer for the event, styling it with t-strap heels and tight bun.

Though pretty and ethereal, it's also rather forgettable.

We hope she wears something a bit more exciting next time!

Nicole Kidman continued to make her obligatory Cannes jury member appearances on Thursday night by showing up to the IFP, Calvin Klein Collection & Euphoria Calvin Klein's Women In Film celebration.

Choosing a laser-cut leather dress from Calvin Klein's A/W 2013 collection, Nicole was elegant and edgy all at once.

No prize for guessing her shoes — that's right, they were Jimmy Choos! Rhyme totally unintentional.

We did notice, though, that the 45-year-old's eyes were kind of red.

Nobody said wearing expensive clothes and going to a bunch of fab events on the French Riviera was easy!

Who knew bugs could look this beautiful?

Freida Pinto razzle dazzled all the way down the massive red carpet on Thursday at the Cannes Film Festival premiere of Jeune & Jolie.

The 28-year-old looked stunning in a thigh-splitting, silver beaded Sanchita gown with little crystal bugs covering the bodice and silver strappy heels.

Why didn't she wear this to the Opening Ceremony!? This would have been SO much better! It just screams Gatsby!

To complement her glamorous gown, Freida rocked a beautiful chignon, which she decorated with matching insect pins.

Well played, Mademoiselle Pinto!

Are U feeling Freida's day 2 look? Or does it make you want to call the Orkin man???
