Eva Longoria is sharing a glimpse of her latest Parisian moment, accompanied by some of her closest friends and inner circle. The actress and filmmaker, currently attending the 78th Cannes Film Festival, took a brief detour from the red carpet to join longtime friend Lauren Sánchez for an unforgettable bachelorette party ahead of her wedding to Jeff Bezos.
“It’s so nice to celebrate love. It’s just the best feeling in the world to be there and go, ‘Yay, love,’” Eva told People at the French Riviera. The celebration, held on Friday, May 16, brought out a select group of Lauren’s celebrity friends, including Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, and Katy Perry.

Lauren kicked off her celebrations at the chic French restaurant Lafayette’s the night before. “The atmosphere was very relaxed and very Parisian,” a source told People. “It was a pre-wedding all-girl party for 13.”

“The journalists that are here, the conversations that are taking place on this global stage matter in media, and what we do matters in society and in culture and in changing hearts and minds,” she continued. “I think that the greater purpose of the festival is what calls me back every single time.”
