The star continued, “So I would say to everybody, there is a wonderful book out at the moment, it’s calledFeminists Don’t Wear Pink (And Other Lies)and I suggest if you want to know about this then you should actually read the essay and all the others in the book and the wonderful thing is that all the proceeds go to Girl Up which is a phenomenal UN foundation which gives money to organizations that are supporting girls’ education, girls’ safety and girls’ leadership in developing countries.”
