business for many companies like lego land windsor where visitors can now marvel at a miniature windsor castle and a mini royal wedding. just since harry has obviously always been part of many lad and this is the very first time that we've made for many and so we've worked hard to try and recreate her as best as we can and have tracked the tiny couple and their miniature wedding guests will remain on display at legoland windsor even after the real harry and megan walk down the aisle. and madame tussaud's already boasts harry and meghan as wax figures everyone wants a selfie with a future couple it seems that megan is giving the winds a brand quite a boost. the roof family is a brand. it's as much a business as anything else you know it's prince philip who refers to it as the so

how is mike and muckle going to make her a mom she is going to carve her role as a philanthropist there's been lots of tools that she seeks to emulate princess diana and possibly we will see her carry on as harry does diana's humanitarian. meghan's public appearances are certainly bringing business to the fashion industry as well just like her future sister in law catherine duchess of cambridge megan is revered as a fashion icon and the outfit she wears to public occasions completely sells out overnight and that's probably not going to change anytime soon. another person who wields a quite a bit of influence as the twenty one year old food blogger laying out fetzer she's got some seventy thousand followers on instagram thanks to her colorful regan dishes now she's only been blogging and posting pictures for about four years now and already she has published her first cookbook with over one hundred recipes and

family close to where she lives. but he's otherwise throughout. because i prefer these gnarly carrots i like how they look and they actually taste better you wouldn't find them in a shop because they're wonky you can only find them on a farm they're perfect fish. like the project uses recipes are unconventional when you follow a strict t.v. can diet you need to be creative. is endlessly inventing. today she's revamping the good old pizza. instead of the old school calorie fest. and cheese she's making a carrot crust. plain has been vegetarian for years when she found out that she's lactose intolerant she first began experimenting with reagan food options. she

festivals. the cannes film festival is as much about the red carpet as the films with star turns from jury president cate blanchett and the star of the opening movie penelope cruz it's an event that puts women center stage. this year against the backdrop of the need to movement eighty two women took advantage of the limelight to take a symbolic walk along the red carpet in a protest for equal rights and against gender discrimination in the film industry. i hope that this will be the beginning of a change these are the beginning of the end a follower of things that were not fair for for women everywhere around the world and in. almost every industry. this is the first cannes film festival since the allegations of sexual abuse were made against hollywood producer harvey weinstein he was conspicuous in his absence which made for a very different mood according to scott roxboro european editor for the hollywood

reporter used to rule this town i mean harvey weinstein was the king of cam and now he's gone and it doesn't look like another king is going to take its place it looks like maybe it will be a number of queens that will take their place supermodel naomi campbell hosted a star studded fundraising gala the thing was race to equality with proceeds going to initiatives devoted to improving education health and culture but it might take a while to make this traditional festival truly socially aware. even though this year is supposed to be a celebration of female directors and so forth they brought in a lot of very old school male directors. the vendors is also here but in some ways these men represent a type of cinema that i think cam would like to go back to that maybe like to go back to the night and seventy's where it was all about the pure o'toole in the end to go down the eighty seven year old pioneer of the french new wave movement only made a press conference appearance via cell phone but his latest film the images. book

which premiered in the competition shows he's still as experimental as ever. then ben does showed his latest work out of competition a documentary about pope francis' disappointingly perhaps the pontiff didn't accompany the director on the red carpet. this spent a year following pope francis closely and made some unexpected discoveries. and children ring i think i. pretty rock and roll in what he does and brave and also very easy going to. have your youthful joy that shines through. and he's even a bit mischievous. push which is. a myth much fanfare the latest installment in the star wars franchise solo

a star wars story celebrating its premiere. and. great. it was the only major hollywood studio production and can this year it's screen out of competition. but it was another u.s. movie that got people talking in black klansmen spike lee tells the story of a black cop who infiltrates the ku klux klan. door here spike lee has been camping many many years way way back he was here with do the right thing which in my opinion should have won the palme d'or it didn't present the jury did not give spike lee it's likely still hates him for it he said if you have. come out with a baseball bat spike lee appeared on the red carpet supporting knuckle dusters reading the words love and hate. can might have got

a bit political this year but good intentions. also needs to translate into action it's time there were more women directors competing for the awards this year just three of the twenty one films in competition are female directed that needs to change time is definitely. and certainly with that we were up another show so don't forget to check out our website for more on the program or of course follow us on social media for me and the rest of us as always thanks for joining us today again tomorrow. on the next edition of euro max we catch up with the one and only. thirty five years after she shocked to international cream with your country ninety nine red balloons she's embarking on a major jubilee tour through marker forty you'd stay jennifer's already celebrating
