Known for his over the top performance style, Iggy Pop didn't disappoint in Cannes. The musician turned up to the red carpet of documentary 'Gimme Danger' - a movie about his life - wearing a suit jacket - with no shirt underneath.
As he promised earlier in the day at his film's news conference, he showed up with a bare chest.
The 69-year-old walked the red carpet at the film festival on Thursday (May 19) along with his movie director Jim Jarmusch.
Documentary Gimme Danger, based on Iggy Pop and the Stooges, shines a playful light on the band who influenced punk rock.
While "Paterson", Jarmusch's feature film competing for the Palme d'Or, was a quiet ode to the daily routine, "Gimme Danger" turns the amplifier up to 10 for a "collage" on the career of the Stooges from 1967-74 and from 2003.
The documentary, which is screened out of competition in the 'Midnight screening' section, was made with unique footage recovered by Jarmusch's team and sometimes with the help of Iggy Pop himself. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
