Ashley Judd Calls Out Attacks on Her Appearance as Sexism

Tara Block — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 11:30:00 PDT

While some women - celebrities and otherwise - may not be able to find the right words to fight back against mean-spirited comments about their appearance, when Ashley Judd was hit with remarks that attacked her "puffy" face and weight gain, she had a great response. During the last month or so, Ashley has been in the public eye for her swollen-looking face that some have concluded must mean she's getting plastic surgery done. But the sad reality is it's really a side effect from the steroid medications she's been taking for illness. Ashley Judd wrote a piece on The Daily Beast that took the rebuttal to a whole new, feminist - and empowered - level. In the smart essay, she takes on the naysayers by pointing out how our culture's obsession with women's outer looks are a misogynistic attack on our sex. Here are some of our favorite points:

For women, it's all about the outward appearance: "We are described and detailed, our faces and bodies analyzed and picked apart, our worth ascertained and ascribed based on the reduction of personhood to simple physical objectification. Our voices, our personhood, our potential, and our accomplishments are regularly minimized and muted."
Sexism against women comes from both sexes: "Patriarchy is not men. Patriarchy is a system in which both women and men participate. It privileges, inter alia, the interests of boys and men over the bodily integrity, autonomy, and dignity of girls and women. It is subtle, insidious, and never more dangerous than when women passionately deny that they themselves are engaging in it."
Striving for beauty is a lose-lose situation: "I ask especially how we can leverage strong female-to-female alliances to confront and change that there is no winning here as women. It doesn't actually matter if we are aging naturally, or resorting to surgical assistance. We experience brutal criticism. "
This constant critique of women's appearance affects more than we realize: "It affects each and every one of us, in multiple and nefarious ways: our self-image, how we show up in our relationships and at work, our sense of our worth, value, and potential as human beings."

The retro-inspired hair trend is a popular one for Fall, and this week in particular, we spotted three gorgeous stars sporting vintage styles on the red carpet. Kirsten Dunst paired her tie-neck dress with a simple bun and dramatic side-sweeping bangs, while fellow short-haired star Ashley Judd adorned her '20s-style finger waves with a jeweled barrette. At the Footloose premiere in LA, Julianne Hough left her blond locks long and loose, wearing romantic waves and a deep side part. All three ladies look glamorous and retro-chic, but which one is your favorite?

BellaSugar — Mon, 03 May 2010 11:00:33 PDT

Does Ashley Judd ever age? She's hardly changed since she first made it big back in the mid-1990s. At this weekend's White House Correspondents' Dinner in DC, Ashley wore a bevy of oversized orchids in her hair to accentuate her classic updo. What do you think about this floral statement piece? Does it have just the right amount of feminine flair, or is it too over-the-top?

Would You Mistake Katherine Heigl For Ashley Judd?

BellaSugar — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:01:26 PDT

Earlier today on Regis and Kelly, Katherine Heigl not only discussed her role in The Ugly Truth as part of her promotional rounds, but she also talked about brunette hairstyle, which she called a spontaneous decision. While most of you prefer her as a blonde, the actress, whose own mother didn't even recognize her in this light-chestnut shade, seems to be embracing her darker 'do.

"Most people just don't recognize me, which is really disconcerting, or kind of great," she added. Initially, Katherine was hesitant about going brown for fear of being confused with another brunette actress. "I had been brunette five or six years ago, and I used to get Ashley Judd a lot," she said. What do you think about the comparison? Do you see the resemblance, or is it not even close?

PopSugar — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 05:00:00 PDT

Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault happily walked down the aisle again on Saturday at Venice's opera house Teatro La Fenice. Salma looked gorgeous in a white Balenciaga wedding gown by Nicholas Ghesquiere. Valentina was a flower girl wearing a Bonpoint dress with Francois's children from his first marriage also participating in the black tie affair. They may have gotten married at a small ceremony on Valentine's Day but their glamorous second round of nuptials included about 150 of their close family and friends.

They kicked off the weekend with a masked rehearsal dinner on Friday and some of their celebrity guests wore their black and gold masks as they arrived to the wedding by boat on Saturday. Penelope Cruz wore a floor-length blue gown for the ceremony and changed into a black dress for the reception, with Javier Bardem as her date. Stuart Townsend and Charlize Theron also joined in on the festivities with Charlize transforming her dress from long to short halfway through. Lots more familiar faces were in the audience including Ed Norton, Bono, Ashley Judd and Anna Wintour. On Sunday the newlyweds had a farewell brunch after a romantic weekend of celebrating their life as husband and wife.
