The Run-Through with Vogue

“I am the queen of Cannes,” Léa Seydoux reiterates in fervent agreement with Chloe. More than a decade after being awarded a Palme d'Or at Cannes for her role in 2013’s Blue Is The Warmest Color, she has established the city and festival confidently as her domain. Earlier this year, she attended Cannes to celebrate two of her latest projects, Gentle Monster, which comes to Netflix on November 18th and The Unknown.

Joined in conversation by Taylor Antrim, the three of them discussed these two ambitious films, both of which she shot shortly after giving birth to her second child. After being offered the lead in The Unknown by Arthur Harari, she disclosed that she was pregnant and would have to film immediately post-partum to which he replied that it would not be an issue at all.

“I used this body as a tool,” she explained, “Most of the time you see actresses with bodies that are very controlled, especially here in America. And if I can speak for myself, I'm a bit tired of seeing all these bodies that are just very skinny and not very real. I'm proud to show this body that we're not used to seeing on screen.”

They also got into her long-time friendship with fellow French actress Adèle Exarchopoulos, who sported a “Léa Forever” t-shirt upon her arrival to Cannes this year. “We have a great relationship,” she said of her former co-star, “I mean, we grew up together. She's a great inspiration as well. I love her freedom—the way she's not polished, you know? She is herself and very genuine.”

In addition to being a massively talented actress, Léa is also an avid shopper or a “shopaholic” as she puts it. She is a huge fan of vintage shopping and online auctions but on this latest trip to New York, she made a stop at Los Angeles Apparel, because they don’t have stores in France. Her shopping extends beyond fashion into the realm of art collection. “I collect paintings that represent motherhood.”

Also on today’s episode Senior Wellness and Beauty Editor Margaux Anbouba and Global Talent Casting Director Ignacio Murrillo sat down for a quick chat with WNBA MVP and Golden State Valkyries forward Gabby Williams about winning the championship last week. They chatted about everything from celebrating the win to maintaining good mental health during an intense season.

Sarah Paulson has worn Prada for many of the most significant moments of her career, from her Emmy win to this year's LACMA gala. Luckily for us, she arrived at the Vogue podcast studio fresh off the runway in Miu Miu—wearing the exact same outfit Olivia Colman wore in Paris this season.

“It hasn't been washed, so I'm getting all of her bodily oils," Sarah joked to Chloe Malle on today’s episode of The Run-Through with Vogue. "I'm hoping that there's some process where if I just grip it tightly enough, it's gonna get pressed into my being, and I will then acquire some of her gift.”

Sarah is currently on a press tour for season 2 of All’s Fair, the legal drama created by Ryan Murphy and starring Kim Kardashian, Niecy Nash, Teyana Taylor, Naomi Watts, and Glenn Close. Having recently wrapped American Horror Story—another Ryan Murphy project where she famously played five different characters—Sarah revealed she has never said no to a role he has offered her.

“When he offered me Marcia Clark, I knew so many women were wanting it very aggressively," she recalled. "And I don't know why, to this day, he didn't want a more famous person to do it. He was just really insistent that it be me. Doing that absolutely changed my life and changed my career totally. I still don't know why.”

Jordan Firstman's directorial debut, Club Kid, was the talk of Cannes this year, earning a 7-minute standing ovation and even starting a bidding war. "I had a funny LA tarot card reader right before Cannes. I hadn't sold the movie until Cannes and she was like, "This card is A24, and this card is Neon. If you go with A24, I think there's a multi-picture deal happening," Jordan Firstman shared with Chloe on The Run-Through's podcast.

The film is out Friday and features Cara Delevigne, Saturn Risin9 and a cast of extras found on Grindr and the local NYC nightlife scene. But one of the standouts is newcomer Reggie Absoholm, who plays Arlo, the long-lost ten-year-old son that Peter (played by Jordan) finds out he has. "I do stuff to, like, cringe [Reggie] out 'cause I just like it. I do feel like a dad to him sometimes, and, like, it's fun. I feel like that's what made him comfortable on set was just being able to make fun of me."

In his conversation at the Vogue offices, Jordan shares why he chose to center NYC for a story about friendship and nightlife culture, a quick duo-lingo lesson of all things club culture, and being newly in love.

Election day is upon us. Less than 24 hours before the midterm elections, New York Times Congressional Correspondent and occasional Vogue essayist Annie Karni stopped into the podcast studio to chat with Chloe and Taylor Antrim about the possible outcomes of some of this term’s most contentious races.

With an eye toward some of the closely-watched races in Alaska, Michigan, Florida, Texas, and Maine, Karni laid out what the first 100 hours and beyond might look like for Hakeem Jeffries if Democrats take back the House of Representatives. The midterms are also a time to look ahead at the 2028 election cycle, and the group discussed the possibility of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez running for President. Karni also weighed in on the question of another Trump impeachment. “It's going to be a frustrating topic all of next year. Impeachment is one of the things that's not a unifying position.”

They also revisited her popular Vogue essay published earlier this year about her compulsion to tell everyone from Chuck Schumer to Steve Bannon about her divorce. As a journalist, Karni isn’t accustomed to writing about herself and it gave her a great appreciation for those who do. “And I didn't really mean to be brave, but a lot of people said I was brave,” she chuckled, “but mostly I was overwhelmed by people sharing their own stories. People clearly found it relatable.”

No one does Halloween like Heidi Klum. For the past twenty-five years, Heidi has thrown her infamous star-studded Halloween parties where she’s used elaborate prosthetics to transform into Jessica Rabbit and even a worm. This year, she has slowly dropped hints about her costume including grotesque “body-horror like” close up images and a backpack. “I try to always come up with something that no one has done before. I also always try to come up with something unexpected, or it's a shape that maybe a human body doesn't normally fit in.” Heidi Klum told The Run-Through guest hosts senior fashion writer Christian Allaire (who has been covering Heidi’s costumes for the past six years on Vogue) and senior beauty and wellness editor Margaux Anbouba.

On top of Halloween, Heidi is also a regular on our TV screens hosting Project Runway where she shares a hilarious story about the time Michael Kors passed out; and Germany’s Next Top Model. “I do the casting, and the girls come and they can't walk in heels, where I'm more like, "Well. I think you look amazing "But how am I gonna compare you to the others? You're so far behind, like, you can't walk."

Heidi always makes sure to bring her family along with her to every adventure she’s apart of. Whether it was this year at the Vivienne Westwood show where her fashion obsessed daughter Lou went to a show for the first time or the times she’s come up with costumes for her husband Tom to wear alongside her. “ I always wanted to be Fiona and I didn't have my Shrek." And he's like, "I'll be your Shrek." I mean, he almost passed out that night. Shrek is big. All this mass he had to like, carry around and it's like, you know, it's like a big prosthetic piece of plastic, you know? So that was hard for him the first time around.”

Earlier on the show, Chloe and Chioma caught up on what they had planned for Halloween. Chloe took inspiration from Heidi and will be Medusa while her kids are also going to “Geek out”: Artie will become Hades and Alice will be Meg from Hercules. Plus, Chioma or (Dr.Nnadi we should say) tells the story of receiving her honorary doctorate. And they catch up on the WNBA finals that will result in a fun spooky game on Halloween evening. Trick or Treat!!!
