ZOE SALDANA

When I was in Cannes for the Film Festival, I was staying at the Hotel Martinez. I was running inside to get dressed to go to the Pedro Almodovar Premiere of Broken Embraces when I was stopped by an old friend of mine from New York smack'dab in the busy lobby. If you haven't stayed at the Hotel Martinez during the (62nd) Cannes Film Festival, you wouldn't know how it works... there are limos and taxis in full rotation 24-7 and barricades where hundreds of people and fans have to stand behind just to see their favorite stars. For guests, there are two check points to get into the hotel. Anyways, I am running into the hotel and guess who I literally run into????

Zoe Saldana !!!

My friend Kareem Black is a huge Star Trek fan, so of course, I congratulated Zoe on her role in that... but when I see old friends, I don't think about that kind of stuff... I was just so happy to see another fellow American in the same hotel as me! Penelope Cruz, Rza, Dita Von Teese, and just about everyone was staying at my hotel... but she looked stunning and she said she was going to Hotel De Cap for amfAR’s Cinema Against AIDS benefit.

I wanted to post these photos of Zoe because I just saw AVATAR yesterday for the first time!!!!!! I loved it so much, I just loved it. I'm pretty jaded when it comes to films and I have to say that Zoe starring in it was the icing on the cake (I hate that saying) or shall I say the peppered-gravy on the Southern Texan Style mashed potatoes! I love Zoe! She has always been a good person and we had a talk years ago about having talent in Hollywood. I always knew Zoe was talented and its about damn time that Hollywood took notice... the whole world! I wasn't sure when she would get her chance since chances are so damn slim in Hollywood (especially for ethnic actresses) and it seems the untalented ones but more star-let types get the roles.... I feel vengeance is mine when I see someone like Zoe Saldana get her shine. She is a truly good person, unlike many actresses in Hollywood. And she is truly talented, unlike many actresses in Hollywood.

Sending out good vibes and prayers to Zoe and her family!
(& Chloe Sevigny! Read post below! HA!)

When I ran into Zoe, this is what she was wearing:

Jesus Christ! I am in London right now for the day than I am headed back!

I just came from Cannes and I was staying at the Martinez Hotel because of my friend Gregory Bernard. It was an amazing experience!

I went to Pedro Almodovar's premiere with Paulo Branco.

Than the next day I went to Quentin Tarantino's premiere! Uh... I have been places with Quentin but this has to take the cake. Quentin Tarantino plus Brangelina equals utter mayhem. There were thousands of people lining the streets, top security, and every star you can imagine globally attending his screening. Quentin danced on the red carpet, he was hyped. I can't put into words what his premiere was like, it was just unbelieveable.

I enjoyed the beach and the parties.
I even went on a boat. But I am really not the partying type unless I am with my childhood or old school friends.

I did see Paul Sevigny and he was a sight for sore eyes! I missed that dude!
We laughed and hugged and just had a merry ole time at Andre Saraiva's 314 Le Baron club at Cannes.

Oh before the screenings I was walking around the Carlton Hotel and I ran into Quentin and Pedro having a chat. I was there to meet Quentin and we hadn't chatted in a while so it was soooo much fun!

The Filipinos were in town and they stormed Cannes with four films, I think one was a short film. Many congrats to them.

It was Olivier Pere's last year at the Fort Night so he was probably the main reason why I went to Cannes despite all the glitz and glamour surrounding me.

Oh, I walked into the Martinez Hotel yesterday and Zoe Saldana was standing there and she is an old friend of mine and she was so shocked to see me there. We didn't have time to talk about Star Trek!!! because she was being rushed off and I was there to meet a producer.

I also saw just tons of people... tons of friends... it was so much fun.

The only thing that I didn't like was that I lost my camera with some precious photos inside. Other than that, I guess it was meant to be because that was the least of my problems.

I just thanked God and I thank God for being alive and giving me those experiences.

I don't know what else to say, I have not been on the computer for a bit.

How was your week?

I am about to have some English tea!

Best,
Tiffany Limos
