Word is there’s a very polite, muffled “revolt” of sorts building amongst some Hollywood actresses who are beginning to strain against the waves of starkly gendered banality long-endured by women on the red carpet. Over at Gawker, Hamilton Nolan questioned the prevailing strategy of Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, et. al., concluding that if people hate the red carpet so much, they should not be delicately rolling their eyes at Ryan Seacrest or boycotting the mani-cam; they should simply not walk the red carpet.
Totally valid suggestion. However, were I in the violently strappy shoes of a female celebrity, I like to think that I would stand my fucking ground. These ladies should troll, and troll hard. A suggested script:
Who are you wearing?
Some guy I met last weekend on Craigslist. The softest skin! Don’t tell anyone.
Tell me about that dress!
