Cannes Cracks Down on Naked Dressing and a Possible Cure for Baldness

What’s Inside:

• Cannes Film Festival bans naked dressing on the red carpet

• The iconic event kicks off with new fashion rules and old-school glamour

• UCLA scientists may have found a breakthrough baldness treatment

• A molecule called PP405 could change the hair game by 2027

Episode Description:
The Cannes Film Festival is known for its glitz, glamour, and show-stopping red carpet looks—but this year, they’re putting their foot down on fashion. Organizers have officially banned “naked dressing,” the sheer, skin-baring style that’s dominated celebrity wardrobes in recent years. As the 78th annual event kicks off, the festival is making it clear: elegance is back in, and body-baring looks are out. It’s a shift toward more classic, sophisticated style—at least for now.

Meanwhile, in the world of science and self-esteem, researchers at UCLA may be on the verge of a baldness breakthrough. A molecule called PP405 is showing serious promise in early trials, reportedly waking up dormant hair follicles and prompting them to grow thick, real strands of hair—not just fuzz. Backed by Google Ventures and with $16 million raised so far, the treatment is moving through clinical trials and could be available by 2027 if it gets FDA approval. For millions of people, this could be a literal hair-raising game changer.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Give us three minutes and we'll give you everything you
need to know for the day with Nina's What's trending.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
So the Cans Film Festival kicks off this week and
they just announced something big will be banned this year.
What The Grand Dame of Cinematic Showcases has announced that
naked dressing will be banned on the red carpet at
the seventy eighth annual festival. The naked dresses, so like
the ones that are kind of see through and like

(00:24):
you just have you know, little parts showing or a
lot of cutouts, and those things are really cute. I
think so too, But they don't want any of the
nude dresses on the red carpet this year. And then
there is kind of a flashback, like there's a bunch
of slides. They've been doing nude dressing on this red
carpet for years, really, but now the Grand name of
Cinematic Showcases this year said.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
No, who is the Grand Dame?

Speaker 2 (00:46):
I don't know. It's the person that they just referred
to us, the Grand Dame of Cinematic Showcases. Does it
change every year? Kind of title? Very cool title. I
want to be a Grand Dame cinematic showcases. What do
you do for work? The grand Dame of Cinematic showcases?
Off with your head?

Speaker 1 (01:07):
If you were the grand Dame of Cinematic showcases a
little much, certainly end some careers.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Definitely, Yeah, they basically are with the naked dressing. A
lot of people lean on that. They do. They're cute,
but not the red carpets. Well, I mean, whether they
are or aren't, they won't be there this year.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Does she end everything by saying the grand Dame of
Cinematic Masterpieces is spoken?

Speaker 2 (01:28):
I hope so?

Speaker 3 (01:29):
Oh waites she sign her name like that to.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
Cinematic showcases or showcases like they sign it like jubil
fresh grand Dame.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
I hope, so that would be cool.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
I hope so too. That's pretty cool. But this is
also very cool. I think he's got a big hat
in my head, definitely a big.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Hat abreas GDCS.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Yeah, sign GDCS.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
And she's always got a cigarette, one of those long
cigarette holders, but never smokes it. It's just always lit though.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
Wait, what you know.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Those big long cigarette holders writing like Kuela Deville. Yeah,
kind of a big hat. Yeah, I kind of got vibes, but.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
You know, you said big, saying resident was thinking us
a guard. I'm like, you have her picture with like
at and it's a guard. You know those long sticks
and the little sticks at the end. No, okay, pipe you.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Know cl Deville. Yeah, yeah, she's got one.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Of those.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Kind of courla devilla.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Y'all watch him.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Oh my gosh, just google it. I'll google it. Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
You guys might really be into this story too, because
it's science. UCLA is close to solving baldness, so there
are new researchers that appear to be getting close to
this hair revolution. They found a molecule called the PP
four oh five that wakes up sleeping hair follicles and
tells them to do their job. I laughed too. But

(02:48):
so what they're saying is it's real hair that grows back,
and they've actually already started to get a lot of
funding for it. Because of course, men want to want
to see this. I think anybody wants to see this.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Yeah, I'm starting to get thinned out, and I'm like,
I don't know, man, I.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Don't want that. I was like, are you going bold?

Speaker 1 (03:04):
I'm like, not really gone, but I will obviously at
some point. And I'm like, am I going to Turkey
to get this fixed or what I mean.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
You could.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
But it says that this actual like this thing will
be ready to go by twenty twenty seven. It's not.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
That's probably too late.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
It's not approved by the Sea yet. More studies have
to be done to determine the long term safety. But
it could be ready by twenty twenty seven.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
But it isn't a lot of our food. They've already
cleared it for that. I'm sure, right right, highly possible.
We don't know if we can put it in people's
hair follicles, but Cheerios has it all, and yeah, I
don't go after that's where they got it.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yeah, I can't promise you where the hair will grow,
but if you get the Cheerios, something will pump out.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Oh
