Los Angeles<\/b> Today<\/span><\/div>\nAfter a viral clip of Julia Fox being interviewed by influencers Jake Shane and Quen Blackwell at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party sparked criticism, the actress has now shared her thoughts on the debate over having influencers cover red carpet events. While many argued that influencers lack the journalistic skills to properly interview celebrities, Julia says she doesn’t see the issue, joking ‘Let the influencers in! Let them in! It’s not that serious.’<\/p>\n
Why it matters<\/h2>\n
The debate over influencers replacing traditional journalists at high-profile awards show red carpets touches on larger questions about the changing media landscape, the role of social media personalities, and whether influencers have the necessary skills and knowledge to conduct meaningful celebrity interviews.<\/p>\n
The details<\/h2>\n
In a viral clip from last month’s Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Julia Fox was interviewed by influencers Jake Shane and Quen Blackwell. When Julia tried to discuss the deeper themes of the Oscar-nominated film ‘If I Had Legs I’d Kick You,’ Jake interrupted her, dismissively asking if the sick child in the movie was ‘so damn annoying.’ Julia attempted to explain the film’s commentary on the challenges of motherhood, but the interview ended abruptly, leading to criticism of Jake and Quen’s handling of the situation.<\/p>\n
