The last time Demi Moore was seen at the Cannes Film Festival was in 1997. Who would believe it, right? She was celebrating the premiere of her then-husband Bruce Willis's film. A lot has changed since, but not Demi herself.

In 1997, Demi Moore supported Bruce Willis during the premiere of "The Fifth Element." By then, the couple already had three children and were among the most influential pairs in show business. Who would have thought then that they would be officially divorced three years later? That after splitting with Bruce, Demi would get involved with, among others, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and Colin Farrell? That she would briefly be married to Ashton Kutcher? And that in the end, she would be friends with Willis, creating a big, blended family with their children, his wife, and additional little ones?

As the years go by, Demi Moore seems unchanged. Check out how she appeared at the Cannes Festival.

Demi Moore appeared on the red carpet just before the festival premiere of Yorgos Lanthimos' new film with Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, and Margaret Qualley. The film is receiving mixed reviews, to put it diplomatically. There are opinions that it is a controversial continuation of "Poor Things," filled with uncomfortable scenes and perversions for viewers.

Demi overshadowed the main stars of this premiere. The actress looked out of this world.

Moore chose an Armani dress for the occasion. The shimmering outfit with a floral pattern looked out of this world. It beautifully accentuated the well-toned figure of the 61-year-old, for whom time seems to have stopped.

Demi highlighted the outfit with expensive, luxurious jewellery from Chopard, of which she is an ambassador. That same evening, during another event accompanying the festival in Cannes, the star commented: - It's been 27 years since I first appeared in Cannes; now it's the first time I'm participating in the festival with my film. This place represents not only the pinnacle of cinematic art but also a place where dreams come true. There is no other place where you arrive, and someone brings you spectacular jewellery to your door daily.

In the photo above, you can see Demi Moore from the 90s. Has she changed a lot?

She gained fans over the years through movies like "Ghost," "G.I. Jane," "Striptease," and "Indecent Proposal." She hasn't been short of offers in recent years, but she hasn't hit a big blockbuster. This year, Demi can be seen in two productions. The first is the Disney+ series "Feud." The second is the film shown in Cannes - "The Substance." Directed by Coralie Fargeat, the production is a horror film, but there's no information yet about distribution in the U.S.
