This is a given with most things, although she'd fit into the old west damn well.

I think people are just very (rightly) sensitive after HBO's tasteless and needlessly explicit scenes in GoT and assumed more of the same would be coming.
I'm in the camp of being really tired of seeing media using the brutalisation of attractive young women very obviously for combined viewer shock/titilation, but for…
She has a very specific look and is a very specific age and she takes her clothes off sexily in a lot of her movies. Need we say more?
I can't help you with SNL though, I have no idea.
Can not unsee!
Is it possible to be tired of someone before they've really been in anything? Actually I think that why I'm tired of her. She hasn't really done anything and she's everywhere.
I find that Jezebel tends to write articles it knows will inspire that kind of reaction a lot. They'll report on baseless salacious gossip like it's truth and push commenters to weigh in on famous women and their personal lives. It's incredibly 'Mean Girls', yeah. Horribly so sometimes, in a way that makes me very…
Who's asking you to love her? It's an article about a performer previously targeted for some pretty rank harassment and abuse having the best time at the Emmys. It's relevant to A.V. Club on two counts, so not sure what your deal is with the article existing. No one said you had to be a fan of her work.
Having more fans = more exposure. More exposure as a black woman = guaranteed harassment.
Congrats, man. P cool.
I have trouble believing someone who was happy to be introduced by their own real name as a trendy naked prop to explain the stock market was particularly concerned about the skimpiness of an outfit in a superhero movie. Harley is actually one of her more famously clothed roles, ironically, and was probably a big…
Unfortunately the readership of Jezebel is generally not much for nuance or for empathy of any kind. They'll frequently trash women they've arbitrarily decided to hate with a ton of misoginistic rhetoric, so of course sympathies for anyone else are even lower than that.
Just remember, Jezebel isn't a feminist site,…
Suicide Squad and 50 Shades are one and the same, just targeting opposite gender demographics. Pandering trash that aims low and nets an idiot audience doing it. I.e: a lot of people.
50 Shades of Grey is terrible. No doubt about it. But I do have to wonder if its insane success is partly down to how starved women are for sexual content aimed at them. Straight guys are constantly having shit movies with hot women aimed at them a la Suicide Squad and Transformers and those movies gratingly rake in…
It's got nothing to do with instant unattractiveness. 33 is generally the age that stunningly beautiful and award winning actors like Olivia Wilde and Anne Hathaway and Natalie Portman have vocally talked about beginning to lose roles to younger actresses and that's even with them being famous for being serious…
Surprisingly there can be nuance to a discussion. You can acknowledge that Hollywood is a festering hotbed of sexism and objectification while also being aware that Robbie has purposefully leaned into that culture and used it to her advantage with agency and self awareness. Robbie is not a child, and Harley isn't just…
Oh Robbie knows exactly what she's doing. She is a grown woman on the tail end of 20 and is tight enough with WB that they'll give her a solo movie. If she had wanted that outfit changed, it would have been changed. People babying Robbie and acting like she isn't making these choices to allow herself to be objectified…
She hasn't really been that vocal about being uncomfortable wearing it though, come on. She said the hot pants were a little uncomfortable. I hate the outfit, but she didn't seem to.
Her reappearing/disappearing Boston accent in Suicide Squad was awful too. At least I think that's what it was meant to be…
Will Smith was the best part for me.
You sound really sensitive. Does discussion about bias and the prioritising of young white guys' sexuality trigger you? This might not be your safe space, bro.
