Actress' Wears Odd Fertility Shoes

Am I the only person who's bothered by this headline on a news site. Grammar People! I mean, I'm not a fabulous grammarian by any means, but even I can tell this is wrong.

I believe it should either be Actress Wears Odd Fertility Shoes or Actress' Odd Fertility Shoes.

LOL. I believe this French actress was wearing shoes that had fertility godess statues as heels. It was the one who won best actress a few years ago.

Wow. Just...wow. And I am the grammar Nazi. I just don't think I would have ever come up with that sentence. Ever. I just...it hurts my brain to think about.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. Apparently the journalist just loves apostrophes a lot :/
