Javier Bardem Finally Shows Love For Penelope Cruz In Public

By Sugey Palomares

Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz have been keeping things on the down low forever – that is until now! The Spanish heartthrob recently opened up about his love for his Spanish novia at the Cannes Film Festival this past Sunday.

The Oscar winner snagged the "Best Actor Award" for his work in Iñárritu's Mexican drama, "Biutiful." Yes, he may have won one of Cannes' coveted awards, but it was his emotional speech that made the night:

"Thanks to the jury for this beautiful award. This award is a recognition to my work which would not exist if it weren't for the extraordinary movie Alejandro Iñárritu has made. My love Penélope, whom I love so much, and to whom I owe so much."

Finally! We have been waiting for this moment since the couple won Academy Awards for "No Country For Old Men" and "Vicky Cristina Barcelona."
