The billionaire superyacht showdown at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival:
The Cannes Film Festival becomes one of the season's destinations for many of the world's very wealthy, all showcasing their magnificent superyachts in various locations along the French Riviera, from Antibes to Monaco or directly off the Jetee Albert Edouard in the Old Port of Cannes. When you attend the Cannes Film Festival, you will see many of these mega yachts anchored just off the shore for the envious to see.
Since many of these yachts cruise during the day with their guests and change locations often, I am once again including Monte Carlo, Cap d’Antibes, Marseilles, La Ciotat, and St. Tropez in my roundup this year which also leads up to the Monaco Grand Prix at the end of May. I am currently in the South of France visiting a few of these yachts and will report on the who’s who in the French Riviera during the Cannes Film Festival.

Steven Spielberg Claims He Dislikes Black Actors To Get Out Of Cannes Jury DutyCANNES, FRANCE—In a brazen attempt to avoid serving jury duty and missing work days, film director and head festival juror Steven Spielberg told the organizing committee of the 2013 Cannes Film Festival that he strongly dislikes black actors. “I feel compelled to report to you that I have a personal bias against black actors and actresses that would necessarily impair my ability to carry out judicial responsibilities at the Cannes International Film Festival with integrity, impartiality, and competence,” Spielberg reportedly told Cannes officials, adding that he has always held these views and that he would therefore be a “poor choice” to judge films fairly over the next 12 days. “Since I do not wish my strong opinions on race to sway, obstruct, or in any way influence the jury’s final verdict, I recommend that you replace me with an alternate, such as acclaimed director and producer Ron Howard, for instance.” At press time, sources confirmed that skeptical officials had denied Spielberg’s motion for recusal and the director had sullenly accepted his $40 daily stipend.
