Bikini-clad Michelle Rodriguez swaps the party circuit for the pool as she takes a well-earned break in Cannes
She’s been enjoying the very best of the relentless party circuit, but Michelle Rodriguez appeared to take advantage of a rare break in proceedings at the 68th annual Cannes Film Festival on Friday morning.
The 36-year-old actress stripped down to a skimpy white bikini for a relaxing dip in the outdoor pool at Hotel du Cap Eden Roc – where she was joined by a small group of female friends.
Michelle, best known for her recurring role in the hugely popular Fast & Furious movie franchise, looked predictably relaxed while taking in the breath-taking views across the sweeping Mediterranean coastline.

Taking it easy: She’s been enjoying the very best of the relentless party circuit, but Michelle Rodriguez appeared to take advantage of a rare break in proceedings at the 68th annual Cannes Film Festival on Friday morning
The star was her usual laid-back, low-maintenance self, with her hair pulled back in a ponytail and no make-up on.
With her arms crossed over the edge of the pool, she chatted to her group of pals before toweling off and making her way inside.
Michelle was taking it easy following a glamorous appearance at the annual amFAR Gala at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap D'Antibes.

Look white hot in Michelle's ViX bikini
On Monday night Cannes regular Michelle Rodriguez stunned in an elegant, custom made Blumarine gown as she attended the Chopard Gold Party- but the glitz and glam doesn't just finish on the red carpet. Ohhh no.
Following the after parties, and the after after parties, the A-list elite like to recuperate on mega yachts, still ensuring they look a million bucks of course.
Here Michelle is looking scorching in a white hot two piece which is from ViX. We love ViX for their flattering cuts, the halter neck tops support whilst the thick bottom straps flatter the hips. Gold hardware lends a glamorous touch to this style.
