Are you tired of sexist interview questions? It’s an irritating, yet persistent habit of Hollywood to give male actors interesting and relevant questions while women are asked about their makeup and dietary choices. Amy Poehler’s #SmartGirlsAsk campaign asked Twitter for some thoughtful questions, and brought them to the Emmy awards. Here are some awesome Hollywood women talking about challenges and representation:
