Rashida Jones is the latest celebrity to slam the Cannes Film Festival for their rule that women must wear high-heeled shoes.
“It’s part of a larger problem, which is heels are the worst. They make your legs look better, whatever, but mainly it’s men designing them and setting these rules. … If they make a rule where that I have to wear heels on the carpet, then I’m making a rule that I’m just going to wear flats any time I’m asked to wear heels,” the 39-year-old actress said on Tuesday evening (May 26) during the Nightly Show on Comedy Central.
“I think it’s a snobbery thing. I think it’s like ‘this is the way we do things here,’ you know, and it’s sexist,” Rashida added.
Emily Blunt also voiced her concern at the rule – read what she said here if you missed it!
Rashida went on the show to promote Hot Girls Wanted, a documentary she produced that sheds light on Florida’s amateur porn industry through the experiences of five young women in the business. The doc hits Netflix on Friday!
