The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member is at the festival to promote her new crime drama Paper Empire.

She stars as Bentley, the wife of a Bernie Madoff-esque wealth management services owner, Laurence Finch, played by Robert Davi.

After Laurence’s internal accountant, played by Steve Guttenberg, discovers some huge discrepancies in the company’s ledgers, the company is raided by the FBI and Laurence is eventually sentenced to prison.

The discovery is causing massive disruption in global financial markets.

What his former clients and investigators don’t know is that the funds are hidden in a “digital limbo” cryptocurrency blockchain technology.

To access it, Laurence escapes prison, and then both clients and the government are on the hunt for him and the money.

Last month, the Drop Dead Gorgeous star and her ex celebrated their daughter Sami’s 19th birthday.

The model, who had her birthday on March 9, received love from her “proud” mother, with a tribute post on her Instagram page.

She shared a selfie of the budding model as natural sunlight streamed in through a window and wrote, “Happy Birthday to my beautiful Sami girl!”

“I love you so much and I am so proud of you and your heart is even more beautiful. I love you so much. Congratulations on your 19th birthday!!!! I love you @samisheen,” followed by a red heart emoji.

During an appearance on Sirius XM’s Jeff Lewis Live, she explained, “Aaron takes a lot of my content for me. He knows what guys like. I ask him, I show him things and say, ‘What do you think?’

Denise went on to reveal that she takes pictures in bikinis and lingerie and isn’t afraid to show off her body – insisting that pictures of her half-naked already exist on the internet.

She told host Jeff, “I do bikini, I do lingerie, I do things that are sexier, because I also think, ‘Why not?’ if I can do things outside of the more conservative things on my Instagram. I show my boobs, my poop,’ she explained.

“They’re already there if you google them.”

The actress said she first signed up to the site to support her daughter, but she’s come to understand why it feels empowering.

She continued, “I did it to support my daughter because I’m a mom who’s an actress who’s done things, and I thought it was empowering as a woman as well… to take charge,” she said. “You own all the content and (on) a lot of the other platforms, you don’t own the content. So it’s nice to have it under control.’

Sami previously faced opposition from her father, actor Charlie Sheen, who was not happy with her decision to join OnlyFans. told E! News in June last year: “I don’t condone this, but since I can’t prevent it, I urged her to keep it classy and creative and not sacrifice her integrity.”

However, just a few days later, he let the outlet know that after talking to his ex-wife, she “highlighted a variety of salient points that I had overlooked and dismissed in my haste.”

Now more than ever it is essential that Sami has a united parental front to rely on as she embarks on this new adventure. From this moment on she will have it in abundance.’
