'She talks a good game, but there's no substance': Dame Helen Mirren bashes Ivanka Trump and her 'ignorant' book, but highlights Melania's 'power' - and her ability to 'bring her husband down'.
Dame Helen Mirren has been a vocal critic of President Donald Trump and his administration, and the actress didn't hold back when it came to sharing his thoughts on his daughter's 'ignorant' book about working women.
Although Ivanka Trump has branded herself as a feminist who is dedicated to empowering women, 72-year-old icon and advocate for women's rights told Allure that she isn't buying it.
'[Ivanka] talks a good game, but there’s no substance. Her book is so ignorant about how the majority of women live, talking about, "Make time for yourself to have a massage." Puh-lease,' Mirren said in reference to Women Who Work, Ivanka's latest book.
Women Who Work received scathing reviews from numerous publications that slammed the book for being tone-deaf when it came out in May this year.
In one excerpt, Ivanka discussed going into 'survival mode' while working on her father's presidential campaign, explaining that she didn't have time to treat herself to massages or meditate like she would have liked.
Critics found revelations like those to be cringe-worthy and oblivious to the realities that plague other working moms that don't have the financial means or outside help that Ivanka has.
Despite her obvious disdain for Ivanka, who works as her father's senior adviser, Mirren's feelings about First Lady Melania Trump are more mixed.

And SHE does?? Do the majority of women appear in "artistic" porno films ("Caligula") and sleep their way to the top to succeed?
That was her???
She does have a knockout body.
I’d hit it...
Ivanka’s advice is better than Babs Streisand or Gweneth Paltrow.
Making time for a message or time to myself have always been at the top of my self care list.
Helen has gotten cranky in her dotage
Not that’s just plain funny....
Unless of course you confused her with Helen Reddy
A professional liar offers an opinion...
The family estate at Gzhatsk, near the city of Smolensk, 215 miles west of Moscow, had been snatched from the Mironovs in 1918 in the aftermath of the Bolshevik Revolution, and was finally destroyed by the Nazis during the Second World War.
The Germans also destroyed most of the family files at the regional archive in Smolensk.
Her real russian roots are showing!

Dame Helen sounds like a lot of FReepers.
Yet another empty headed British bimbo who doesn’t have a clue what America is about, opens her purple and spews out garbage. You’d think they’d worry more about Britain being turned into an ISIS stronghold with the numerous terrorist attacks in Britain.
This from a woman whose claim to fame was taking off her clothes on film for the last 50 years.
I remember seeing this Movie when it first came out in 1979.
Disappointed in her. Liked her in those Bruce Willis movies. Finished with her now...
