With its message of empowerment, Barbie has been rebranded to relate to a new generation. And according to Rotten Tomatoes\u2019 86% approval rating, most audiences are listening. However, a recent viral TikTok shows that not everyone has been paying attention to the movie\u2019s message, with three theatre attendees insulted simply for taking photos. Vanna, who goes by \u2018vannachauu\u2019 on TikTok, went to see Barbie with two friends, with the trio dressing in pink to celebrate the iconic doll\u2019s live-action debut. Leaving the cinema \u201cfeeling emotional and empowered,\u201d the friends decided to take photos together in front of the Barbie poster. But their wholesome moment was interrupted after a man driving past insulted them, shouting, \u201cYa\u2019ll are ugly as f***.\u201d Vanna shared the moment on TikTok, writing, \u201cWhat\u2019s it like being a woman? Being excited to dress up and watch Barbie with your girlfriends. Walking out of the theatre feeling emotional and empowered and wanting to take a cute picture together in front of the Barbie movie poster.\u201d She then heartbreakingly added, \u201cJust for a man to drive by and say \u2018Ya\u2019ll are ugly as f***\u2019 completely unprovoked. This is what it\u2019s like being a woman.\u201d And it\u2019s a sentiment shared by many \u2014 after all, the film\u2019s success wouldn\u2019t exist if so many didn\u2019t feel it recognized the experience of being a woman.
