31st October 2008
The new Bond girl Olga Kurylenko, now known
to many fans as Camille, modeled Grisogono jewelry in Paris
last night, whilst actor Mathieu Amalric hammed it up for photographers
in his native France.
Hundreds of fans lined the barriers along the carpet, all armed
with digital cameras to snap the cast as they filed in. Amongst
the special guests at the premiere were King Abdullah II, Queen
Rania
and Princess
Iman
of
Jordan.
Since the Royal
world premiere in London on Wednesday and the
French premiere in Paris on Thursday, additional events will
be held in Oslo, Berlin, Amsterdam, Rome, Valencia, Sydney and
Tokyo.
