2. Jennifer Lawrence had the perfect response to the age-old red carpet question directed almost exclusively at women
3. Nicki Minaj knows her damn worth and we are living for it
4. Roxane Gay was asked this repulsive question in an interview and was not having it
5. Lauren Conrad’s timeless interview shut-down. A true classic
6. Rihanna has literally NO time for this BS
7. Rowan Blanchard, child star & perfect bb feminist, challenging the classic trope that women and girls should ~smile more~ (P.S. She’s 15)
8. Ariana Grande effortlessly shading this radio interviewer who asked her what she’d pick to use one last time: makeup or her phone
