Meryl Streep Cries While Accepting Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival

Buy Me A Coffee

Guess who’s back, back again? Meryl’s back, tell a friend! The legendary Meryl Streep graced the Cannes Film Festival with her presence after a whopping 35-year hiatus! Yup, she dusted off her glitzy heels and strutted back into the spotlight like the queen she is.

And guess what? She didn’t just show up for the free croissants and sparkling wine; she snagged the prestigious Palme d’Or award at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony! Picture this: Meryl, decked out in all her glory, being handed the award by none other than Juliette Binoche, because why not add a sprinkle of French flair to the mix?

In her acceptance speech, Meryl got all sentimental, reminiscing about the last time she graced Cannes with her presence. Back in ’89! She spilled the tea on how she thought her career was as dead as yesterday’s baguette. But plot twist: she was dead wrong!

“Picture it: I’m a mother of three, inching towards the big 4-0, and I’m like, ‘Well, that’s it. Time to pack up the acting gig and retire to a life of knitting and cat memes,’” she probably didn’t say, but let’s pretend she did. “But here I am, still kicking, still acting, and still fabulous! Turns out, I owe it all to the brilliant souls who put up with my antics on set. You guys rock! And to my dear mother, who always had a knack for being right, she said, ‘Meryl, honey, life moves faster than a Parisian fashion show. Enjoy the ride!’ And boy, was she right. Except for this speech, which I promise I’ll wrap up faster than you can say ‘oui oui.’”
