Is Cate Blanchett really THIS out of touch??
The Tár actress sparked controversy at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival after SEVERELY misrepresenting her economic class. During a United Nations press conference on Monday, Cate spoke about her experience as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador and how crucial it is to uplift refugee filmmakers to tell their stories — all while grappling with feeling like a “white savior” because of her vast privilege. Thought-provoking stuff, sure, but the most provoking comment came when she attempted to describe herself as “middle class.” No, we’re not joking.
