Jennifer Lawrence made headlines at the Cannes Film Festival when she wore black flip-flops to the event, deviating from the tradition of wearing heels on the red carpet. In a recent interview, Lawrence clarified that her choice was not a political statement but rather a practical one. She explained that the shoes she was supposed to wear with her Dior haute couture gown didn’t fit properly, so she opted for the more comfortable and practical flip-flops. She expressed surprise at the controversy surrounding flats and barefoot appearances on the red carpet, stating that she had no knowledge of it at the time. Lawrence emphasized that her decision was solely based on the sizing issue with her shoes and not a deliberate statement.
