Find a Cure for AIDS? Yes We Cannes!

Here are some fun photos from amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS 2008 dinner last night at the Cannes Film Festival. It was refreshing to see that amidst all of the excess and self-flagellation something was being given back to society. I'm guessing the tireless Sharon Stone was behind this one. (Love her! If you haven't seen this underrated actress as a mob wife in "Casino" or her Cybill Shepherd sendup in "Irreconcilable Differences" then you're really missing out.)

The gorgeous Sharon Stone, always ready for her close-up

Donatella Versace, wearing some kind of leather mask, and Natalie Portman; Christian Slater and Petra Nemcova (given her track record, shouldn't she try to avoid another natural disaster?)

Beautiful Eva Herzigova and Dennis Hopper get friendly

Joshua Jackson (aka Pacey on "Dawson's Creek") and actress Diane Kruger; Sharon hanging out with one of her main gays, Alan Cumming

Madonna, who told Cynthia McFadden last night that Pharrell Williams made her cry during the "Hard Candy" sessions and who played auctioneer during the evening, with Sean Combs and some drag queen

Juliette Lewis, who I'd have to say is the hottest retard on the planet since Shaun Cassidy in "Like Normal People"

Sharp-dressed men: Danny Masterson and Jackson, both looking annoyed

Call security: who let Star Jones in?
