Why can online celebrities walk the red carpet in Cannes?

As one of the most influential large-scale film festivals in the world, Cannes Film Festival attracts stars, directors, producers, photographers and media reporters from all over the world. As a product of the social media era, online celebrities have also become frequent visitors on the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival.

However, there may be many explanations for why online celebrities can attend the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival. One possibility is that the organizing committee of Cannes Film Festival wants to attract more attention and media reports, so it invited some online celebrities to the red carpet. These online celebrities may not be guests invited by the government, but they got admission qualification by sending tickets to others.

In addition, Cannes Film Festival also needs profit to maintain its operation, so the organizing committee will sell some tickets to attract more audiences and sponsors. These tickets are usually sold at different prices to attract different levels of audience to watch the film festival. Therefore, some online celebrities may have bought tickets and attended the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival.

In short, although some online celebrities may participate in the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival through various channels, it does not mean that they can participate in various activities of the film festival like official stars or guests. During the Cannes Film Festival, official activities and awards are usually only open to invited guests and stars.
