Vanessa Paradis made her first public appearance since her split from Johnny Depp was announced three weeks ago at the premiere of her new film, Je Me Suis Fait Tout Petit in France last night.

The singer/actress posed for pictures on the red carpet in Paris, with the film's title meaning 'I Am Made Me Itty Bitty' in English. Or that's what Google translate tells us, anyway.

We guess that's why all the actresses at the event looked quite small - with Vanessa being 5'3".

It's not known exactly why Vanessa and Johnny split, but they were said to be leading separate lives

But Vanessa's height aside, this was the first time she has willingly posed for pictures since the news of her separation from partner Johnny was announced on June 19.

Smiling naturally as the photographers snapped away, Vanessa looked relaxed in jeans and a blazer, with her long brown locks falling loosely over her shoulders.

She and Johnny officially parted ways a! fter 14 years together last month, after releasing a joint statement about the split.

Vanessa decided against a frock and rocked jeans and a blazer at the premiere
