What happens on the Cannes red carpet, does not stay on the Cannes red carpet. A randy couple at the Cannes Lions Festival have had their public shag caught on camera and posted on Twitter.
Journo, David Griner from US media website Adweek, caught the couple bumping genitals around 4:30 am at Cannes. He then tweeted the photo to his almost 11,000 Twitter followers.

“The whole thing happened at the end of a pretty long night, when some of us jetlagged Americans decided to drop by a production shop’s relaxed get-together at an apartment whose balcony overlooked the Palais, where most Cannes Lions events take place. Front and center at the Palais is the red carpet, used for both the Cannes Film Festival and this Saturday’s Cannes Lions awards show,” Griner wrote on Adweek.
“As I was getting ready to leave, I pointed across the street and said, “Hey look, two people are having sex on the red carpet.”
“After 20 minutes or so (not bad, all things considered), they finished up, gathered their scattered shoes and belongings, and walked away arm in arm. They got a smattering of applause,” Griner added.
Griner’s Twitter followers responded to the red-carpet booty call:
@griner The juxtaposition of the sign, the distance of where their shoes landed. It’s too perfect. It’s probably Ogilvy.
