Numerous stars, male and female, have offered opinions about Harvey Weinstein’s alleged reign of terror in the wake of the dozens of heinous allegations levelled at the disgraced movie mogul, yet Jodie Foster says she doesn’t see the point in adding her voice to the conversation.
“I don’t feel like anyone needs another soundbite from me,” the 55-year-old actress/director said in an interview with The Telegraph‘s Stellar Magazine, reports the Daily Mail.
“I can certainly speak to women’s issues; there isn’t a woman I’ve met that hasn’t had some sexual harassment or inappropriate sexual context in their workplace or other places,” she added, noting the many other “amazing, well-spoken, honest women” who’ve already come forward to blow the lid off of what had apparently been an open secret throughout Hollywood.
“I don’t want to talk about gross guys in bathrobes; what has been of interest to me is narratives of amazing, well-spoken, honest women,” said Foster. “It’s given people, if they’re interested, a real richness of what the female experience is.”
