“Things have to change immediately,” Kristen said. “It has become really obvious that if a man and I were walking the red carpet together and someone stopped me and said, ‘Excuse me, young lady, you’re not wearing heels. You cannot come in.’ Then I’m going to say, ‘Neither is my friend. Does he have to wear heels?’ It can work both ways. It’s just like you simply cannot ask me to do something that you are not asking him. I get the black-tie thing but you should be able to do either version—flats or heels.”

The French film festival was criticized in recent years for mandating that attendees must wear heels to events in Cannes.
