why… would you ask a man about the MeToo movement but purposefully exclude a woman? WHY would you ask Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield about BlackLivesMatter but exclude Ayo Edebiri????
ayo’s truly better than me because wtf was that question
what the everloving fuck was this

They are so professional
If I was there I would’ve instantly told her to fuck off
Like, the racism…the racism! Arghhhhhh
Jesus look how hard she’s working to make sure she can speak up for herself and others without seeming difficult. That must be fucking exhausting.
And interviewer is wearing sunglasses?
Is it just me, or was Roberts fully prepared to answer the question and just ignore Edebiri while at least Garfield looked at Edibiri if only to gauge her reaction?
Europe: where the microagressions are macro.
Why the fuck would you ask that to 2/3 of the cast members and specifically exclude the other one, at all. Then take into account that you’re asking a question regarding the Black Lives Matter movement, and the only black person there is more or less told not to respond. Wtf.
This interviewer has either intergalactic levels of stupidity or audacity. It’s so nice to see that Ayo immediately took notice and didn’t let that slide
Ayo’s facial expressions listening to all that are a journey, lol.
i’m so tired of purposeful rage bait in press just to stir headlines, that’s exactly what this feels like it is
What an ignorant question to ask
not me having the same exact expression at ayo. I am genuinely trying to understand why the journalist decided not to include a black woman when asking about both me too and Black Lives Matter. like what the actual fuck. and good on ayo for speaking up.
SIDE NOTE, ayo looks so incredibly stunning I could die. she looks ethereal with that hair and in red
these celebs are better than me ‘cause i would cuss and maybe even swing at them
This is Italy, right? Racism in Italy…. (Derogatory)
I wonder what outlet that reporter is from. Sounded like an Italian accent to me (I am bad at accents)
Julia really gave her an out there and she just….went right ahead. Ayo really kept it much cooler than I would have.
” I want to ask a question about the treatment of women, and people of colour. So obviously that excludes you Ayo”
I love the way he instantly turned toward the women. Also: I love Ayo!
Ew. That was gross but Ayo handled it so well
And her costars did well to give her the space to do so
Of course the interviewer is Italian
A Black woman standing right there, and the reporter asks the white woman about BLM. That’s not just unprofessional, it’s systemic racism. Not to mention how absurd is asking a man about the metoo movement 😮💨
And plenty of talented, unemployed journalists would never make that mistake.
Ho.ly.shit. That’s fucking outrageous
Bless Ayo.
That interviewer received some undeserved grace
And see, if she were to go off AS SHE SHOULD then they’d be calling her an angry Black woman. It so frustrating to be in that position. I just stopped caring and cuss motherfuckers out accordingly.
The way Andrew spun around to face Ayo, and the way Julia called that woman out for wearing her sunglasses…I love that disgusted, united front. And I’m exhausted for Ayo. Bless her because I’m to the point that I may not have been as gracious she was in that moment. Exhausted.
