Demi Moore and Nicole Kidman form an iconic duo, but they don’t escape the macho crowd. When two Hollywood legends find themselves targeted by sexist comments.
“It looks like the Joker”: Demi Moore and Nicole Kidman appear together, and Internet users are furious
The rest after the ad
We rarely come across such an iconic couple.
On the red carpet of the Governors Awards, two divas appeared in black dresses: Demi Moore and Nicole Kidman. Diamonds on the neck, obvious class, aura of a luminous Hollywood superstar as a halo. It’s the meeting between two great actresses of the 90s.
And two witches, too: Nicole Kidman is “bewitching” alongside Sandra Bullock in the eponymous and hyper-sororal cult film from our adolescence (we tell you about it here) and Demi Moore is in The Substance.
A gory, trashy and feminist UFO that prompted the sex symbol to get naked… Literally. In a particularly daring sequence that we share with you in this article. But rather than welcoming this meeting of two queens (one of whom continues to criticize her hyper sexualization, as in this strong testimony about her live strip tease), Internet users have focused… On their physique.
Yes, we breathe. But why?
“They’re scary”: Nicole Kidman and Demi Moore, two queens under the sieve of ordinary sexism
Behind the Los Angeles red carpet, sexism.
We see this through this collection of reactions from Internet users: “They’re botoxed girls”, “Nicole can barely smile”, “They have frozen faces”, “Nicole Kidman clearly looks like the Joker”, “It’s sad about women who don’t want to age naturally”, “Nicole is so uncomfortable…”, “It’s scary for women who don’t look their age”, “I don’t feel well“.
As you can imagine, this kind of reaction is hardly productive.
A flood of ordinary sexism, behind a “denunciation” of cosmetic surgery, which above all arouses a relentlessness that is a little too uninhibited to be honest. But besides, this is not the first time that Nicole Kidman has been the subject of rather inappropriate remarks on the red carpets.
We remember this crazy fake news concerning his duo with another of his friends, Salma Hayek… Allegation that we decipher for you here.
As for the guilt inseparable from aesthetic medicine, we analyze it in this rant through an obvious example, that of Audrey Fleurot (cocorico). The star of the HPI series was right to say these words on the subject of the double punishment experienced by women (who will always be “too much this” or “not enough that”): “I try not to be too sensitive to being scrutinized, to making fashion faux pas. We waste too much time trying to be someone else. Women can be their own worst enemies. They also put pressure on themselves“
We recall that for questions of aesthetic practices, Audrey Fleurot generated reactions that were even less “charming” than what Demi Moore and Nicole Kidman suffered: “Carnage”, “what a waste”, “she destroyed her face”, “So lifted, too much! she was sublime…”, “It was better before”, “No, I want to cry! a woman so naturally beautiful is a scourge“…
It is the same obsession with the faces of stars and their appearance in general that prompted “specialist” Johnny Beteridge to deliver this very, much too detailed deciphering of the various surgical practices to which Demi Moore was subjected. Cervico-facial lifting, blepharoplasty correcting bags under the eyes…
A relationship of fascination/repulsion which well sums up the paradoxes of such a subject.
