During the Cannes Film Festival, panic broke out at Variety's star-studded bash when guests heard a loud "crunch of metal" followed by violent shaking at La Terrasse by Albane on the JW Marriott Cannes rooftop. Attendees, including celebrities like Diane Kruger and Jordana Brewster, described the experience as akin to an earthquake, with many fearing the rooftop might collapse. It was later clarified that the disturbance was caused by a temporary plywood structure that cracked and collapsed, not the roof itself.
