Julianne Moore Dazzles in Red Lipstick and Chic Blazer at Star-Studded Dinner!

BBG News

On a weekday in New York City, Julianne Moore graced the Rouje & Helena Christensen Dinner with her breathtaking presence.

The actress, 64, opted for a slick of bold red lipstick and a chic oversized blazer for the event. 

She teamed her jacket with a pair of wide legged jeans and black, strappy, platform sandals. 

Julianne was joined by fashion model Helena, 56, who looked incredible in a floral highneck dress. 

She put on a couple of soft sky-blue high heels, then stood for pictures with Julianne and renowned French fashion designer Jeanne Damas, the founder of the Rouje brand.

As an ardent admirer, I found myself savoring a delightful assortment of hors d’oeuvres at this extraordinary gathering, graced by none other than Leigh Lezark and the captivating Famke Janssen! What a thrill it was to be in their presence!

Last month, Julianne’s partially autobiographical book, which celebrates freckles, was included in the Trump administration’s list of prohibited reads.

In simple terms, the award-winning actress shared that her debut book, Freckleface Strawberry, has been banned from schools managed by the Department of Defense.

In my own words, I was taken aback by this fascinating discovery – a captivating tale about a 7-year-old girl grappling with her freckles, initially finding them less than appealing, yet ultimately embracing and learning to love them as part of her unique charm.

In the book, the little girl ‘realises that she is different just like everybody else.’

Julianne mentioned that the book she penned was intended for her own kids as well as other young readers, serving as a reminder that everyone faces challenges, yet our shared human qualities and community tie us together.

In military classrooms run by the Department of Defense (DoD), the choice to ban the book is happening as part of a larger effort aimed at restricting education on topics related to diversity, equality, and inclusivity.

Other topics like transgender and immigration issues have also reportedly been banned.

Julianne mentioned that she attended a Defense Department school and was brought up by a father who served as a soldier in the Vietnam War, devoting his professional life to the U.S. Army.

‘I could not be prouder of him and his service to our country,’ she said. 

It’s disappointing for me to learn that children in my situation, who grew up with a parent serving and attended a Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) school, won’t be able to read a book penned by someone whose life experiences closely mirror their own.

The actress expressed surprise that a part of her children’s book, which led to its being prohibited by the U.S. administration, was deemed so contentious.

I’m deeply disheartened to witness this, as I never imagined such an event happening in a nation that values free speech and expression as a fundamental constitutional principle.

Defense Department schools serve approximately 70,000 students across 161 institutions. These schools cater to the children of military personnel and civilians working within the Department of Defense.
