The new face of Coco Mademoiselle attended the fundraiser gala paying homage to dancer and ballet director Patrick Dupond, who passed away in 2021.
Patrick Dupond performing in John Neumeier’s Vaslaw, a piece celebrating dancer Vaslav Nijinsky, in 1980.The event kicked off with a film that highlighted Dupond’s talent but also his wit, evident in the way he quipped that his name was “Dupond — with a D, like dance.”
“I wanted to dance with [the corps],” said Algerian-French actress Lyna Khoudri, adding it was the first time she had been to a ballet since filming “Houria,” a movie directed by Mounia Meddour coming out on March 15 in France. It tells the story of a gifted ballet dancer left traumatized after an attack who is inspired to help the women she meets during her recovery to overcome life struggles through dance.
Having previously danced herself, though “not nearly as good” as the evening’s stars, Peak particularly admired the duets and how the dancing pairs flew their lifts. “You have to trust [your partner] so much, otherwise you’re going to fall, you’re going to get dropped,” she said.
