Many artists disappointed when attending the red carpet of the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.

The 2026 Cannes Film Festival officially opened on May 13th, gathering a cast of famous international stars.

The red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival is attracting attention with a series of events related to stars. Among them, Truong Nghe Hung - a male idol - was commented on as quite clumsy in front of international lenses. He appeared confused and did not know which camera to pose or look at.

Moving not in accordance with regulations caused the male artist to accidentally squeeze into the positions of other artists, creating a chaotic scene and obscuring visibility on the red carpet.

In some moments at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival, Truong Nghe Hung, Ta Kha Dan and some other faces of the Chinese entertainment industry were recorded standing in a line, chatting and interacting right in the red carpet staircase area, causing local traffic congestion.

Faced with this situation, the organizing committee staff had to directly remind and signal the group of artists to move quickly to ensure the order of the program.

Previously, many stars encountered situations of being "subtly reminded" or invited to leave the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival due to violating travel time and regulations.

In 2015, Ly Bang Bang once appeared gorgeous at the premiere of "The Sea of Trees" but was said to be moving too slowly, affecting the flow of other artists, forcing security personnel to remind her many times before she left the red carpet.

At the 65th Cannes Film Festival in 2012, Duong Mich attracted attention with a striking yellow dress but encountered an unsuccessful situation when she was constantly reminded by security for staying on the red carpet for too long.

At the 77th Cannes Film Festival in 2024, Dong Le A and her two colleagues Luong Tranh and Quan Ho were also "subtly invited" by the organizers to leave the photo area because they exceeded the allowed time.

At the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, many tense situations between artists and security forces also caused controversy.

Actress Massiel Taveras was stopped by a female security guard who urged her to leave while posing in a long dress printed with sensitive images.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian model Sawa Pontyjska also attracted attention when she was prevented by security forces while posing on the red carpet. After the incident, she even filed a lawsuit against the organizers accusing her of being "assaulted".

The red carpet of international film festivals such as Cannes emphasizes professionalism and sensitivity. This is also a methodical image building strategy for artists.
