CANNES, FRANCE: Demi Moore is currently serving as one of the jury members at the 79th Cannes Film Festival, taking place from May 12 to May 23.
She has undoubtedly served fashion goals throughout her red carpet appearances, but has also sparked buzz around her health and fitness.
Demi Moore’s new Cannes look sparks health concerns
One of her looks has especially grabbed people’s attention online. On May 15, the 'The Substance' star dazzled in a glittery rhinestone dress and a dramatic feather boa. She wore the sleeveless floor-length gown while attending the Chopard Trophy photocall.
Though Moore's fans could not take their eyes off her sizzling look, many raised concerns regarding her health as she appeared extremely thin. Some mocked her for looking “severely malnourished.”
The A-lister was even compared online to a “healthier” 97-year-old woman, a post that later went viral.

“Yeah, the severely malnourished Skeletor look is very sexy,” someone mocked.
“Botox and ozempic don’t mix, and when they do, yes it turns heads, but not in a good way!” a comment read.
