Rihanna Adds a Naked Shoe to Her Cannes Wardrobe
Rihanna first hit the Croisette in a bright blue Alaïa bodycon dress—complete with bump-baring cutouts—for the premiere of Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest, which stars her partner, A$AP Rocky. Next, she wowed us in another sexy, cutout-heavy dress, wearing a black Brandon Maxwell number with a hip-high slit and a bare midriff on a dinner date with Rocky.

But today, Rih gave us a taste of her off-duty maternity wardrobe on a stroll around Cannes. She opted for a black ribbed long-sleeve Khaite dress with a fringe skirt. While others might style the swishy dress with a strappy sandal, Rihanna broke out a beloved pair of clear PVC heeled sandals from Giuseppe Zanotti. Practically invisible, it almost looked as though she was strutting around town on the balls of her feet.
This isn't the first time we've seen Rih in these shoes. In 2017, she wore them with a white shirtdress to a Madeworn x Roc96 pop-up event. Whether they're worn with a tailored minidress or a fringed maxi, Rihanna's naked shoes transcend both time and occasion.

A former Rolling Stone says the Met has his stolen guitar. The museum disputes it
LONDON (AP) — It's only rock 'n' roll, but it's messy. A guitar once played by two members of the Rolling Stones is at the center of a dispute between the band's former guitarist Mick Taylor and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The 1959 Gibson Les Paul was donated to the Met as part of what the New York museum calls 'a landmark gift of more than 500 of the finest guitars from the golden age of American guitar making.' The donor is Dirk Ziff, a billionaire investor and guitar collector. When the Met announced the gift in May, Taylor thought he recognized the guitar, with its distinctive 'starburst' finish, as an instrument he last saw in 1971, when the Stones were recording the album 'Exile on Main St.' at Keith Richards' rented villa in the south of France. In the haze of drugs and rock 'n' roll that pervaded the sessions, a number of instruments went missing, believed stolen. Now, Taylor and his team believe it has reappeared. The Met says provenance records show no evidence the guitar ever belonged to Taylor. 'This guitar has a long and well-documented history of ownership,' museum spokesperson Ann Ballis said. Taylor's partner and business manager, Marlies Damming, said the Met should make the guitar 'available for inspection.' 'An independent guitar expert should be able to ascertain the guitar's provenance one way or the other,' she said in a statement to The Associated Press. While its ownership is contested, there's no disputing the instrument's starring role in rock history. It was owned in the early 1960s by Keith Richards, who played it during the Rolling Stones' first appearance on 'The Ed Sullivan Show' in 1964. The Met says that performance 'ignited interest in this legendary model.' The guitar – nicknamed the 'Keithburst' – was also played by guitar legends Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. Taylor says he got it from Richards in 1967, two years before he joined the Stones, replacing original member Brian Jones. Jones died in 1969. Taylor left the band in 1974, reuniting with them for the Stones' 50th anniversary tour in 2012-2013. Jeff Allen, who was Taylor's manager and publicist for decades from the 1990s, said Taylor 'told me he got it as a present from Keith,' and also mentioned the theft. 'Mick did tell me that the guitar solo that he became quite famous for, on 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking,' was with the Les Paul that got stolen,' Allen said. The Met's records say the Les Paul was owned by Richards until 1971, when it was acquired by record producer and manager Adrian Miller, who died in 2006. The guitar has changed hands several times since then, and reappeared twice in public. It was put up for auction by Christie's in 2004, when it failed to sell. Ziff bought it in 2016, and loaned it to the Met in 2019 for an exhibition titled 'Play it Loud: Instruments of Rock & Roll.' It's unclear what will happen next. The Met, which plans to open a new gallery dedicated to its collection of American guitars, says it has not been contacted by Taylor or his representatives. ___ Associated Press writer Jocelyn Noveck in New York contributed to this story.

Sharon Stone says she almost didn't get ‘Basic Instinct' role after fight with Michael Douglas
Sharon Stone traces her villainous role in the forthcoming 'Nobody 2' back to her vampish breakthrough in the San Francisco-shot thriller ' Basic Instinct,' a role she says she almost didn't get to play after an argument with her famous co-star. 'Michael Douglas did not want to put his bare ass out on the screen with an unknown,' Stone told Business Insider in an interview published Friday, Aug. 1. 'And I understood that. He wouldn't even test with me. But that was also for a different reason; we had an argument prior to that.' Stone, the 67-year-old actor who was once married to former Chronicle senior vice president and executive editor Phil Bronstein, said she first met Douglas at the Cannes Film Festival before she was cast in Paul Verhoeven's 1992 noir. While sitting in a group she said she became offended when Douglas told a negative story about people she knew. 'I really, really knew this person he was talking about,' Stone recalled. 'So I said something and he responded to me, saying, 'What the f— do you know? ' It was in regard to a father-child relationship. Clearly, it triggered him. So he screams this at me across a whole group of people. And I'm not the person who goes, 'Oh, excuse me, superstar.' I pushed back my chair and said to him, 'Let's step outside.' That's how we first met.' Once alone, Stone said she 'explained to him what the f— I knew about this family he was speaking about, and that I was best friends with the children and the parent.' Douglas, she claimed, accepted her explanation. 'And then we parted, I wouldn't say as best friends, but amicably,' Stone continued. 'So, fast forward to casting 'Basic Instinct,' I don't think he wanted me to be his co-star.' Stone had been knocking around Hollywood for years in B movies and guest roles in TV shows before being cast in 1992's 'Basic Instinct.' She became a major star after her turn as the ice-pick wielding, underwear optional femme fatale Catherine Trammell, a prime suspect in a murder investigation who manages to seduce San Francisco cop Nick Curran (Douglas). She told Business Insider their past friction was beneficial to their performances. 'It worked great, because I was not rattled if he yelled at me,' Stone said. 'That was interesting for the character, because Michael has a temper, and I didn't care. That worked very well in our dynamic. Eventually, we became the greatest of friends, to this day. I admire him tremendously.' 'Nobody 2,' which stars Bob Odenkirk, opens in theaters on Aug. 15.
