Cinema Against AIDS Gala

The always lovely Charlotte Casiraghi joined her uncle Albert and soon-to-be aunt Charlene at amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS gala on Thursday during the Cannes Film Festival, where the Casiraghi trio are familiar faces. Prince Albert is a veteran of the charity gala but this was a first-time appearance for Charlotte there and she was quite a hit. Prince Albert and Charlene also took home the prize for earning the most money at the auction. What was so valuable that the couple (looking quite glamorous themselves) put up for sale? Two tennis lessons and two swimming lessons. We know Prince Albert loves a game of tennis and we know Charlene is quite the swimmer -will they be taking matters into their own hands? That would certainly make for a memorable event to be sure.

Casiraghis at Cannes

Saturday night Charlotte and Andrea Casiraghi, with their significant others, attended the Vanity Fair and Gucci Party honoring famed director and filmmaker Martin Scorsese during the 63rd annual Cannes film festival. The party was held at the Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc in Cannes. The stars were out that evening, also showing up were Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Benicio del Toro, Meg Ryan, Kate Beckinsale, Salma Hayek, Naomi Campbell and Queen Noor of Jordan. The above picture was taken at the Chopard 150th anniversary party where Charlotte arrived accompanied by her mother's longtime friend Khadija Nin which happened last night. All this events surrounding the Cannes film festival would seem to explain the absence of Andrea and Charlotte at the Grand Prix gala Sunday night.
