Actress Julie Delpy apologized for saying there’s nothing worse than being a woman in the entertainment business — and that sometimes she wished she were black.
In a Friday interview with The Wrap at the Sundance Film Festival, Delpy said “I sometimes wish I was African-American … because, I think, at least people don’t bash them afterwards when they say something … about a reality, which is … we live in a xenophobic environment.”
Delpy was referencing an instance two years ago when she complained about the Academy being very male and white and was “slashed to pieces by the media” for her views.
“It’s interesting … women can’t talk,” Delpy said, adding that “it’s probably the hardest to be a woman.
Feminists is probably something that people hate above all.
Nothing worse than being a woman in this business.”
