A photo of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson in Cannes spread rapidly after several media outlets reported the married couple of 35 years were yelling at a staffer on the red carpet.

The photo in question shows the actors having a conversation with the staffer, Hanks pointing at him and both furrowing their brows.

But Wilson took to social media to set the record straight.

The couple, who was on the red carpet for their new movie Asteroid City, were - according to Wilson - having a hard time hearing the staffer over all the noise.

In an Instagram story, Wilson shared a photo of a tabloid story claiming the duo were "remonstrating" with the staffer, complete with a "Raving Private Ryan" headline intro to boot.

Wilson overlayed the photo with text that read:

“This is called I can’t hear you. People are screaming, What did you say? Where are we supposed to go?”
“But that doesn’t sell stories! Nice try.”
“We had a great time! Go see Asteroid City!”

Some on social media appreciated Wilson's explanation and agreed photos can easily be misinterpreted.

Others, however, weren't buying it.




Whatever the real story, though, the moment didn't put a damper on the cast's celebratory night.

Asteroid City - directed by Wes Anderson and starring Hanks, Maya Hawke, Sophia Lillis, Scarlett Johannson, Margot Robbie, Jason Schwartzman... the list goes on - reportedly received a six-minute standing ovation after its showing in Cannes.

The film is set to release next month.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
