How Scream Queens Just Became a Show About Female Empowerment
  • 9 years ago
scream Queens is one of the most feminist shows on TV.
Strip away the bubblegum colors, cheeky pop-culture references and biting one-liners and the Fox hit is really a show about empowered women-taking a group of sorority sisters who should be damsels in distresses and making them heroines in Chanel dresses.
This sentiment is at the heart of the most important scene in tonight's episode, which featured Chanel , Chanel.
No. 6 Chanel No. 3 and Chanel No. 5 sitting at a table in the cafeteria, eating cotton balls to stay thin, before realizing that life is too damn short and they'll eat pizza if they want to.
It was sad and hilarious and the perfect representation of the pressure that society places on young girls to look a certain way.
