Attention, little people! We are on notice to be suitably impressed by the sheer courage of these ladies to don thousand-dollar dresses to virtue-signal their protest of Harassment In Hollywood.
Multiple sources confirm to PEOPLE that many major actresses — including presenters and nominees (Jessica Chastain, Meryl Streep and Emma Stone are among those nominated)— are planning to wear all-black looks as a symbol of protest against harassment in Hollywood. Sources say that this will start at the Golden Globes on Jan. 7, though it may extend throughout award season.
Impressed yet?
No word if they plan to boycott the after party circuit or Oscar swag. That might be a sacrifice too far. At the least their hearts are in the right place, eh?
Please don’t notice the absence of actual principles and convictions.
Harassment, sexual or otherwise, is neither new or unknown; people who wish to dominate others will gravitate to positions of power in order to fulfill their desires. The Hollywood casting couch is so well-known it became a cliché more than 80 years ago, so excuse me if I find this plan of public posturing hollow and self-serving. I certainly found Meryl Streep’s earlier statement unbelievable:

Their phoneyness they wear proudly. the masses that eat this are such idiots
yup
Meanwhile there was not one even watchable movie put out last year
All crap
The last time I went to a theater to watch a movie was in 2003. The only movie made since that I’ve watched was Gran Torino on a DVD at home. I refuse to support the ‘entertainment’ industry in any way I can.
“I refuse to support the ‘entertainment’ industry in any way I can.”
Threw out my TV when I realized that the justice system had become entertainment during the OJ trial. I have seen perhaps a dozen movies since, mostly oddball stuff or anime on YouTube like “Ghost in the Shell.”
The snippets I see now throw in so many people of color that you’d think they were more than half of the population. Comparatively tiny women KO huge brute guys and there’s gay everywhere, way out of proportion to what you see in real life. Entertainment has gone from fantasy to the ridiculous. Even cop movies...if any cop did what Mel Gibson did, driving a car through a building in a chase, he’d be in prison.
I’ve never watched this circus in my 67 years, guess I haven’t missed anything.
Now associating “all black” with bad stuff.... are they racists????
I’m just surprised that they don’t object to the term golden “globes”. Don’t they know that “globes” is a demeaning term? Where is the outrage? Aren’t they woke yet?
/s
Sooooo not showing up is out of the question?
Black is the perfect color for them - it matches their hearts & souls. They kept quiet just to further their own careers and line their pockets while others were subjected to the abuse. Now they want to appear all concerned and supportive - it’s just another “role” for them. i guarantee you that they would all do it again for a bit more time in the spotlight. Karma is too good for these craven attention seekers.
Lisa Bloom should start a new hashtag: #PayMeToo

Speaking of golden globes, how many of the sexually harassed have breast implants, would you think?
