Scarlett Johansson praises Pamela Anderson’s “powerful” no-makeup look at Paris Fashion Week.
Anderson, 56, went bare-faced to the star-studded event earlier this month, sparking lots of conversation and praise, including from the Black Widow star.
In an interview published Wednesday, Johansson, 38, told PopSugar the move sent a “strong message.”
“I think it’s definitely different to see someone in the public eye, a woman in the public eye, going to a fashion show or a big event without makeup,” she said of the “Baywatch” star. “It’s just completely different than what we’re used to.”
“It’s powerful for women to see other women reject the usual beauty norms,” Johansson continued.
The Marriage Story actress echoed comments Jamie Lee Curtis made about the look earlier this month.
“THE NATURAL BEAUTY REVOLUTION HAS OFFICIALLY BEGIN!” Curtis wrote on Instagram, tagging Anderson. “This woman showed up and claimed her place at the table without her face being seen. I am so humbled and overwhelmed by this act of courage and rebellion.”

Anderson opened up about not wearing makeup at Paris Fashion Week events in an interview with Vogue France, saying she didn’t want to “compete with the clothes.”
“I’m not into makeup right now,” she added. “My mother always told me, ‘At some point in your life you won’t want to wear makeup on your skin,’ and she’s right.” Sometimes you have to challenge beauty.
Anderson said she hopes that by not wearing makeup, she can help model women’s diverse expressions.
“I’m not trying to be the prettiest girl in the room,” she said. “I feel like it’s just freedom. It’s a relief.”
Anderson has joined the ranks of celebrity women who prefer no-makeup looks or age naturally, including Justine Bateman, Kelly Ripa and Alicia Keys.
