–Emma Roberts opened up about finding herself amid news of her split from Garrett Hedlund in her Tatler cover story. While she declined to comment on the specifics of their relationship, she said, “I’m at a place where I can say, ‘I may not have got everything right but I like who I am more than I ever have.’ My life has changed more in the past two years than it did in the 28 years beforehand and I love where I’m standing now at the age of 30.” She also talked about the paparazzi harassing her. “The way I was followed and treated when I was pregnant was disgusting. I’d be driving to a doctor’s appointment and they’d be following me so closely. At one point, I remember saying to them, ‘Please don’t do that, I’m eight months pregnant.’ But they don’t care.”
–Sean Penn recently told a newspaper: “I am in the club that believes that men in American culture have become wildly feminised. I don’t think being a brute or having insensitivity or disrespect for women is anything to do with masculinity, or ever did. I don’t think that [in order] to be fair to women, we should become them.” When asked to clarify his remarks by a different newspaper, he doubled down: “I think that men have, in my view, become quite feminised. I have these very strong women in my life who do not take masculinity as a sign of oppression toward them. There are a lot of, I think, cowardly genes that lead to people surrendering their jeans and putting on a skirt.” If it were anybody else I’d be surprised by such a blatant display of toxic masculinity. But him? Sounds about right.
