“I get so psychotically attached to all of my characters, and I fight for them in probably the most annoying way. I hear myself saying to Ben or Paul [Feig, Ghostbusters’ director], ‘She wouldn’t phrase it that way.’ I know it’s such an actory thing, but I feel it to my core: I have to represent the woman I’m getting to be. Even if she’s fictitious, she’s always real to me: three-dimensional, flawed, loving, screwed-up, as real women are.” – Melissa McCarthy on inhabiting her roles and fighting for the characters she plays
Elle magazine recently hosted a Women in Comedy event, where countless A-list stars from film and television gathered to celebrate the beautiful and talented women in the industry. The ladies of the all-new Ghostbusters movie were fabulously spotted as they stepped out to join in on the celebration. Melissa McCarthy brought a pop of color to the event, while Kristen Wiig embraced the pajama trend.
Melissa McCarthy was a vision in her pink dress with long bell sleeves from Judy B. Swartz. She styled it with tousled waves, a nude clutch, and a pair of floral pumps.
