Nicole Kidman’s inspiring speech
Nicole Kidman took home an award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor for “Big Little Lies”.
The actress used this occasion as an opportunity to say a few words about Hollywood attitude to age.
During the speech, Kidman highlighted the fact that the attitude to the actresses under 40 years has significantly changed. For the better.
“I revere you, I’ve watched you, and I’ve learnt from you,” Nicole Kidman said.
“I want to thank you all for your trailblazing performances you’ve given over your career and how wonderful it is that our careers today can go beyond 40 years old”.
Attagirl, Nicole!
Kristen Bell supports Time’s Up in her speech
Kristen Bell has shared her opinion on Time’s Up and #MeToo movements and shocked the audience.
Her inspiring opening speech against the sexual abuse in Hollywood was the perfect beginning of the ceremony:
“Everyone’s story deserves to be told — especially now,” she said. “We are living in a watershed moment, and as we march forward with active momentum and open ears, let’s make sure that we’re leading the charge with empathy and diligence. Because fear and anger never win the race.”
