From Oscars parties to doing good in New York City, celebs stepped out for plenty of fabulous causes!
Even off-duty, Hollywood is always thinking about #MeToo.
Jaime King chatted with ET at the Colgate Optic White Beauty Lab in Los Angeles on March 3, where she spoke about the movies she was excited to see at the following day's 90th Academy Awards, including Get Out and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. "There’s so many incredible performances in films this year and it was so diverse, and it’s the first time I’ve really seen anything like that so it’s an exciting year," she said.
It was also the push for gender equality and the Time's Up initiative that made this year's Oscars feel so different.
"I definitely feel a change coming. I’ve been at the heart of it for such a long time, and I’m really proud of the actors and the people stepping forward that were too afraid before," she told ET of #MeToo. "As a survivor of sexual abuse myself, when I first started speaking and writing about it, it felt like there was so much to lose because it wasn’t the thing to do, and I think it’s been a collective bracketing of people really understanding that we don’t want to f**king take it anymore. But, ultimately, it’s about holistic change and how can we get there."
