Hannah Waddingham Sets Paparazzi Straight

Hannah Waddingham stood up for herself on the red carpet of the Laurence Olivier Awards on Sunday, where she addressed a photographer’s demand for her to ‘show me leg.’ In a video captured by a Twitter user, the Ted Lasso star is seen confronting the photographer, expressing her shock and disapproval, stating, ‘Oh my god, you’d never say that to a man, my friend.’ She further asserted, ‘Don’t be a d**k, otherwise I’ll move off. Don’t say, ‘Show me leg.’ No,’ as she walked away to the cheers of the watching crowd. Waddingham’s response highlighted her refusal to accept such disrespectful requests and sparked an important conversation about double standards in the industry.
