Simone Ashley Relives Classic Rom-Com Moments | One Day
youtube
British Vogue presents One Day with Simone Ashley. Simone Ashley is Bridgerton Season 2-opposite the smouldering Jonathan Bailey (Anthony Bridgerton). Kate & Anthony's will-they-won't-they romance incorporates all the classic tropes of the beloved genre: a memorable meet cute, love triangles, a runaway bride, and a swoon-worthy denouement.
So, what happened when we asked Simone Ashley to play a textbook rom-com heroine for a day? The answer involves nods to everything from Notting Hill and Bridget Jones' Diary to Love Actually-plus a very festive cameo. Watch the full episode on British Vogue to see how many iconic rom-com references you can spot.
I've always been a bit sad growing up when every single monster tends to be defaulted to male (even worse in my very, very gendered mother tongue). So, I've been taking a lot of joy on using or adding female pronouns on entities that do not even have a smidge of gender. Yes, the evil ancient meat supercomputer powered by undead angels is a she/her. The living embodiment of a mechanised city condensed into a vague idea named "The Titan" is genderfluid. I'm tired of only humanoid monsters with hourglass shapes and tits getting to be women. I want role models to look up to (eldritch and mechanical horrors fused in unholy communion)
