At the Emilia Perez screening in Los Angeles, Selena Gomez wowed in a long-sleeve wrap dress featuring a thigh-high slit, paired with patent leather slingback heels styled by Erin Walsh. Her look, accentuated by a side-parted raven bob from hairstylist Renato Campora, has sparked speculation about her recent weight loss, rumored to be due to the trendy Ozempic. Makeup artist Jenna Nicole enhanced her features with contoured skin, doe-like lashes, and a glossy pink lip.
Selena plays Jessi Del Monte, the ex-wife of a transgender Mexican cartel leader, in Jacques Audiard’s musical film, which hits select theaters before streaming on Netflix on November 13. She expressed her connection to Jessi’s story, emphasizing the character’s urgency to break free and find her identity. The film has received a “certified fresh” rating of 84% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Zoe Saldana, meanwhile, made a striking appearance in a sheer long-sleeve blouse over a ruffled maxi skirt, complemented by layered necklaces chosen by stylist Petra Flannery. Her elegant updo by hairstylist Mara Roszak highlighted her statement earrings, while makeup artist Vera Steimberg defined her brows and opted for a bold red lip. Zoe’s portrayal of Rita Moro Castro, an unappreciated lawyer, has garnered her recognition as a top contender for best supporting actress at the Oscars.
Zoe Saldana shared a heartfelt reflection during her conversation with the LA Times, recalling how her mother sang her lullabies in Spanish, which deepened her connection to her roots. “The body keeps score,” she said, expressing a longing for home that she found fulfilled through her role in Emilia Pérez. She described the film as a “medicinal experience,” emphasizing that while she wasn’t actively seeking such a project, it was something she needed.
At the Emilia Pérez screening, Zoe posed alongside her co-star Selena Gomez and Karla Sofía Gascón, who plays dual roles in the film. The bond between Zoe and Selena has grown stronger with each film festival they attend together.
