Thursday, May 18, 2023, Anna Biolay took her first steps at the Cannes Film Festival on the occasion of the screening of the film "Rosalie", in which she plays opposite her father, the singer Benjamin Biolay. After climbing the stairs, the young woman was the target of violent attacks on social networks. Benjamin Biolay and his aunt Coralie Biolay have both stepped up to defend her.

At 20, the daughter of Benjamin Biolay and Chiara Mastroianni walked the famous red carpet of the Palais des Festivals before the screening of the film Rosalie, in which she plays opposite her father.

The attacks were so violent that her aunt Coralie Biolay felt compelled to defend her publicly, in a post shared on Instagram.

"This ultra-sensitive young woman suffers from reading such bursts of wickedness when the only thing she has done is to be part of it thanks to her work, her relentlessness and her undeniable talent (it must be!) of the casting of a good film (...) I am shocked to see what mothers can write on social networks, how bitterness can lead to the worst of the human being, "she then wrote before calling as "monstrous" the people insulting her niece on social networks.
Benjamin Biolay also defended his daughter after climbing the steps in Cannes. The singer denounced, in an Instagram story, the behavior of a university professor, and asked his fans to boycott the music group of this "despicable guy". Anna Biolay did not speak...
