Melissa McCarthy believes in teachable moments.
In Entertainment Weekly's May 22, 2015 issue, the actress recalled coming face-to-face with a film critic during the 2014 Toronto Film Festival after he had recently trashed her appearance in the film Tammy. Though she was there to promote St. Vincent, McCarthy called the critic out for his sexiest commentary.
McCarthy recalls how the critic told her, I'm only a good actress when I look attractive and that my husband [Ben Falcone] shouldn't be allowed to direct me because he let me look hideous in this movie.
The actress said, 'I hope you don't have a daughter.'" According to McCarthy, she "didn't mean that in a mean way."
McCarthy told the critic, 'Just know that every time you write stuff, every young girl in this country reads that and they just get a little bit chipped away.' I just think that we tear down women in this country for all these superficial reasons, and women are so great and strong, and I think he really heard that."??
