Elle Fanning remembers blacking out at Cannes Film Festival: ‘Very dramatic’
Elle Fanning took a trip down memory lane, recalling an embarrassing encounter she faced at Cannes Film Festival.
In a recent interview with W Magazine, published on Tuesday, January 6, the 27-year-old actress revisited the “hilarious” time she blacked out during the 2019 festival, where she attended as a main juror.
Explaining the reason, Fanning shared, “Yes, my dress was too tight.”
“My sister was sitting at another table, and she saw my chair just completely fall back. It’s kind of hilarious — very dramatic,” she added.
The All the Bright Places actress acknowledged that the incident quickly drew the attention of attendees at the event.
“Colin Firth was there, and he rushed to my side. It was the talk of the festival,” she recalled.
Shortly after the mishap, Fanning took to her Instagram handle at the time to update her fans.
She penned, “Oops, had a fainting spell tonight in my 1950’s Prada prom dress but it’s all good.”
The Sentimental Value actress added that the dress she wore was too tight and that it was also “#timeofthemonth.”
However, she told the magazine that she used to experience fainting frequently during her childhood.
“In school, I would faint a lot,” she remembered. “I grew, like, seven inches in one year, and I guess my body was growing so much that I got altitude sickness.”
On the professional front, Elle Fanning’s upcoming movie, The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, is set to be released on November 20, 2026.
