Rachel was spotted out & about with Kayleen in LA yesterday. I think I also spot Kristen and Mama McAdams:

Forbes published an interesting article analyzing Rachel's career and the lack of female roles in Hollywood:

Quote:

The would-be big trailer drop last Friday morning was for Southpaw, the Antoine Fuqua-directed boxing drama. The film stars Jake Gyllenhaal as a down-on-his-luck boxer who must dig deep to get his career back on track and reclaim custody of his young daughter. Late-July release date aside, the Weinstein Company release feels like a would-be Oscar bait biopic almost to the point of self-parody. If you saw the trailer, you probably noticed Rachel McAdams as the “girl” in the picture. Actually, that’s not entirely accurate, as she gets killed in the first third of the trailer, which in turn sends Gyllenhaal into a downward spiral. There was a moment ten years ago when she seemed primed to be the next big female movie star. But now she gets “fridged” in male-centric melodramas and gets to be ”the girl cop” in True Detective season 2, which is quickly becoming something of a career rehab home for former movie stars and would-be movie stars who never quite made the sell. I have written so very much about the lack of female-led multiplex releases over the last decade or so, and I have long believed would-be “It Girl” McAdams to be among its primary victims. You can’t be the next great movie star when Hollywood isn’t making movies for you to star in.

I think Cate Blanchett's Oscar Best Actress speech was the best: "For so bravely and intelligently distributing the film and to the audiences who went to see it and perhaps those of us in the industry who are still foolishly clinging to the idea that female films with women at the center are niche experiences. They are not. Audiences want to see them and, in fact, they earn money. The world is round, people."

Hayley Orrantia from ABC's The Goldbergs tweeted this:

I just wish people would listen to Cate and make more of them! I'd love to see Rachel really shine in a role other than The Girl too, she has the talent for it and she deserves it.

Thanks for sharing, guys! Interesting too about someone else listing Rachel as inspiration. She is such a gem.

Thanks for sharing them all, Lindsey! Needs more pics.

winterbird · 04-06-2015, 04:45 AM

I wonder if she changed her hair since we got two sightings of her at a hair salon

Some interesting reactions from reports following the Forbes article:

Quote:

This is the worst article I've read on the Internet today. Count Rachel McAdams out at your own risk... Why Rachel McAdams Never Became A Movie Star - Forbes

This tweet is by Jeff Sneider, he works for The Wrap and actually recently covered Rachel's True Detective casting news and also her Spotlight casting

Another The Wrap reporter tweeted:

Quote:

this is not just the worst article--dumbest, uninformed -- Rachel McAdams chose to be an "actress" and not a "movie star". this writer has no actual inside working knowledge of Hollywood-glaring omission Um Rachel turned down Devil Wears Prada. Also to my point the Forbes post lacks any actual insider knowledge -- Glaring omission: Rachel McAdams turned down Devil Wears Prada... Just like she turned down many other commercial movies because Rachel chose to have the career she has.

ETA: And a possible (?) sighting:

Quote:

OMG I SWEAR I JUST SAW RACHEL MCADAMS IN PUERTO BANUS
https://twitter.com/bxterabliss/stat...02520381026305

It's probably a doppelganger because I assume Rachel is still in the LA area

amanda s. · 04-07-2015, 02:20 AM

Thanks for sharing, Lindsey! I really like that tweet about counting Rachel out at your risk-- and I agree, of course. But I agree with the article in ADDITION to that tweet. I feel like in a way she did choose her career but you can't have chosen to be pigeonholed the way she is instead of having a Jessica Chastain-esque career when you have the talent Rachel has. So I think it's been bad timing/bad options for her, but I ALSO think we should count her out at our own risk.

winterbird · 04-10-2015, 10:13 AM

Yes, I completely agree with you Amanda
