The Sunday Salon with Alice-Azania Jarvis
Arts:Books
Rose McGowan is an actor, artist and activist, whose astonishing memoir Brave details her journey from growing up in the Children of God cult to Hollywood, where she became a film icon but also suffered the most appalling sexism and abuse. Rose, of course, has been one of the key voices in the #MeToo movement. Since speaking about her experiences, industries from fashion to politics have been convulsed by similar allegations in what has undoubtedly been, as she puts it in Brave, “a cataclysmic global reckoning”. In this exclusive interview, Rose opens up about her tumultuous childhood, how being homeless as teen impacted her career, the hell of the red carpet, finding love and happiness, her political ambitions, and her decision not to have children. And she offers her advice and words of support for anyone listening who is also experiencing, or has experienced, abuse.
