Russell Wilson and Ciara's celebrity status deemed not good enough at exclusive Cannes beach club

For celebrities like Russell Wilson and Ciara, getting turned away or lumped in with the general public is not something that happens very often. According to Page Six, the celebrity couple couldn't cut the long lines at the La Guérite, an exclusive restaurant and club in Cannes, France. Instead, like the general population, the quarterback and his superstar wife had to wait in line.

The couple eventually got into the exclusive club and did some window shopping, trailed by bodyguards and a personal photographer.

Wilson and his wife then made their way to a private boat that was waiting for them to arrive.

Russell Wilson has become the sports face of the state of Washington

Denver Broncos Introduce New Quarterback

While the quarterback's level of fame may not resonate at a similar level in France, the United States is a different story. Over the last 10 years, Russell Wilson has become the sports face of the state of Washington. With the Seattle Seahawks, the quarterback played in two Super Bowls and won one.

His first Super Bowl win came just one year after getting drafted in the third round by the Seattle Seahawks. The win was due in large part to the Legion of Boom, one of the best defenses of the 2010s.

Their opponent in the Super Bowl was the Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning, who steamrolled defenses en route to an NFL-record 55 touchdown passes in the regular season.

Most had the Broncos winning the game, but were shocked to see the Seahawks feast on Denver's mistakes. After an initial safety on the first offensive play for the Broncos, the Seahawks got on the board and never let up. The final score was 43-8.

Wilson's next Super Bowl came against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. Up until this point, the Seahawks had a reputation for dominating in the fourth quarter, consistently winning after falling behind early. It seemed the quarterback was going to pull off the feat once again. With little time left at the goal line in the fourth quarter, the team had the option of running the ball in for a touchdown.

Instead, they called a pass on a slant and the quarterback threw an interception to Malcolm Butler, effectively ending the game. Since then, the team hasn't been back to the Super Bowl.

The quarterback moved to Denver Broncos in the offseason. He will look to become just the third starting quarterback in NFL history to win a Super Bowl with two different franchises, after Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.
