Carla Bruni-Sarkozy assures her: "I admire feminism"

INTERVIEW

The controversy arose from a video showing her at Paris Fashion Week last February, saying: "We are not feminist". Since then, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has been trying to prove the contrary and affirm her support for the feminist movement. She confided on the subject to Pascale Clark in Media culture, on Europe 1.

At the microphone of the journalist, Carla Bruni remains at first in the dark about her first outing. "Ah well? I don't remember." Before looking at this fight: "I come from a generation that has benefited a lot from a certain militant feminism. This has opened the door to a lot of freedom for women. I have recognition for the feminist movement . "

Even if she recognizes herself less in the new #MeToo movement, she wants to support it. "This movement is less of my generation, but it is very liberating and very important. I do not have an activist temperament, but I admire feminism", underlines the singer who came to present her new single Something .

"I am fortunate to have never been abused"

To Pascale Clark's question: "Has she always been well treated and respected?", She specifies: "I am lucky to have never been abused. Like all young women, I found in risky positions. I traveled and worked alone when I was a young model for 12 years, on airplanes, in hotels. It could have gone wrong for me, I was lucky. "

For women who have been assaulted, the fact that the feminist movement exists today "is fundamental," she says. "I find that in addition to being abused, feeling responsible or guilty, I find that it is a bit gratinated. What set the powder on fire in this movement is shame. It is important , because a lot of women couldn't rebuild themselves. "
