Red Carpet Quotes

“Yes, he scorned his family’s decadent ways, but perhaps that wasn’t so much about the money per se, but rather the wastefulness of it; the lack of energy and drive it represented, as if the Ransomes were—like that postmodern throng of the famous-for-being-famous set—some odd collection of spoiled Emperor-brats walking a red carpet without any discernible talent to clothe them. The things the Ransomes—and their once-large fortune—could have accomplished . . . they could have changed the world, or at least impacted it in positive ways.”

“«Incolpi la gente di credere in Dio considerandola una massa di poveri illusi. Tu ti conforti nella scienza che fa solo congetture. Quali prove concrete hai a sostegno della tua tesi della malattia da cinquecento milioni di dollari?». Scossi la testa come per dire che non ne avevo, ed era la verità. Ipotesi più accreditata non è sinonimo di certezza. È solo più facile per me da accettare, com’è più semplice per chi ha fede pensare che i vampiri siano i dannati terreni che Dio non vuole nemmeno all’inferno. Una lacrima mi rigò la guancia e immediatamente Adam sciolse la presa ad un passo da quella che sarebbe potuta essere la mia fine. Rimasi sdraiata nella stessa posizione in cui mi aveva costretto, supina, e ricominciai a respirare gradualmente senza allontanare i miei occhi dai suoi. Era bello tornare a vivere sotto il suo sguardo. Si avvicinò ulteriormente al mio viso parlandomi sopra le labbra. Le sfiorò più volte con le sue, senza il minimo proposito di baciarmi. «Forse potrebbe essere la morte la vera malattia e noi la legittima cura. Guardami, Elizabeth» bisbigliò alzandomi il mento col pollice. «Ho quasi duecentocinquanta anni e non ne dimostro nemmeno trenta. Magari tra qualche anno scoprirete le origini della patologia che ammorba gli angeli, e allora la rivenderete a coloro che vorranno volare».”

“What Kate wore, whether on the street or the red carpet was much cooler to them than what she modelled. Her paparazzi photos were becoming indistinguishable from her editorials.”

“When you get into fashion, when you're not yet working in fashion, you have this idea about what the fashion world is: that it's very glamorous, it's the red carpet, it's very editorial. But really, what you don't understand until you get into it, is what goes on the rest of the time, which is just hard work. Besides passion and dedication, it's the grit. How long are you willing to be in it to become successful?”

“I've had a lot of people in my past who were friends with me just to get publicity. When I was young, my mom or sister used to have to point out if someone was using me to make a name for themselves – you know, linking arms with me on the red carpet and trying to get in every picture. But now I can see for myself when someone is just hungry for attention.”

“Bullying behaviour can be communicated via text, mobile phones, internet, social networking sites, forums. But we can't limit it because these messages are then reinforced by television which glamorises yelling, swearing and vulgar behaviour as the way to walk the red carpet of acceptance.”

“Sundance [festival] is all your Hollywood buds and buddies and rolling out and high-fiving and "Hell, yeah. Here comes the movie," and in Venice, it's very elegant, and respectful...It's decadence. It's such a fun way to formalize a movie that is for us a down-and-dirty, gritty movie. And to see it with the red carpet, and rolling up in a Maserati.”

“To handle that stardom, the red carpets, the photo shoots, people all of a sudden recognizing you and following you in everyday life, it's a bit weird. It's strange, and it can have funny effects on you in terms of do you like it or don't you like it. Some people run away from it, some people embrace it; I found a good middle ground.”

“I felt most beautiful on the red carpet in Givenchys sheer lace dress at a dinner hosted by Givenchy in honor of Marina Abramovich at the closing of her Museum of Modern Art retrospective, The Artist is Present, in 2010. It was the first time I had been dressed for an event, and everybody just fell in love with the dress.”

“I've had a lot of glamour come my way in the last 10 years - you know, movie stars and mansions and red carpets and trips to Europe and crazy stuff I never would have imagined - and I look at them as if I'm the bartender in the corner of the room. They've never gone into my psyche. I look at them with distance, and wonder.”
