SHE'S been dubbed as one of the most beautiful stars in Hollywood, but it seems Nicole Kidman suffered a shiny make-up fail as she kicked off Cannes Film Festival yesterday.

The 46-year-old Moulin Rouge star appeared at the film festival in France looking rather shiny on Le Grand Journal TV show. 

Despite her make-up mishap, Nicole looked eternally youthful and as beautiful as ever. 

Over the years rumours have been sparked about the actress's line-free face, but last year she insisted she was a natural beauty - although she had tried Botox.

She told Italian newspaper La Repubblica in February 2013: "No surgery for me. I did try Botox, unfortunately, but I got out of it and now I can finally move my face again."

She added: "I am completely natural. I wear sunscreen, I don't smoke and I take care of myself, and I am proud to say that."

The Hollywood actress currently has six movies on the go: Genius and The Family Fang are both in pre-production, Paddington and Queen of the Desert are in post-production and Before I Go To Sleep is completed. 

She's also currently filming Strangerland in which she plays Catherine Parker alongside Joseph Fiennes and Hugo Weaving.

The script, by Fiona Seres and Michael Kinirons, follows couple Catherine and Matthew Parker whose marriage is pushed to the brink when their two teenage children disappear into the remote Australian desert and they are forced to confront the mystery of their children’s fate.

Dazzling in a little black dress, Nicole completed her Cannes outfit with her hair pulled back in a tight quiff and her blonde locks falling around her shoulders.

The actress is in town to promote her latest movie Grace of Monaco - a biopic of the late actress Grace Kelly.

And the star's portrayal of Hollywood princess Grace Kelly opens the Cannes Film Festival tonight as some of the biggest names in the movie business head to the south of France for the annual bash.

The biopic, called Grace Of Monaco, stars Kidman as the actress who married Monaco's Prince Rainier, played by Tim Roth.

The pair married after meeting at the festival in 1955, but the film concentrates on her life after the wedding.

The film has been controversial - it has been criticised by the royal family in Monaco - and its release date has been put back amid rumours of behind-the-scenes clashes between the director and studio.
