Andie MacDowell’s gray hair is an oft-repeated subject of conversation surrounding the actress since she decided to let it turn that hue—and, by the way, MacDowell would like us all to know, it is silver, and not gray, thank you very much.
Something else she’s like us to know? That if she were a man, we wouldn’t care at all about her gray hair. In NewBeauty’s March cover story, MacDowell discussed the constant attention surrounding her hair, and the actress told the outlet “For me, it’s fascinating that it’s such a curiosity and interest to people,” she said. “I think also, it’s important to stop and think about that interest and curiosity—because it wouldn’t happen if I was a man. It happens because I’m a woman.”
