We have to find things befitting of this moment. So it’s something that we’ve taken really seriously, and I’ve had a lot of fun doing it and wanting to make sure, because it is Cannes, that it stays chic and elevated and elegant. That’s what Cannes at least represents to me,” Berry added.
Her candid remarks resonate with many who experience the weight of high expectations at glamorous events.
