Scarlett Johansson is praising Pamela Anderson’s “powerful” no-makeup look at Paris Fashion Week.
Anderson, 56, went bare-faced to the star-studded event earlier this month, sparking much conversation and praise, including from the “Black Widow” star.
In an interview published Wednesday, Johansson, 38, told PopSugar the move was a “powerful message.”
“I think it is definitely different to see somebody that’s in the public eye, a woman in the public eye, go to a fashion show or big event with no makeup on,” she said of the “Baywatch” star. “It’s just very different from what we’re used to.”
“It’s powerful for women to see other women rejecting standard beauty norms,” Johansson continued.
The “Marriage Story” actress echoed comments Jamie Lee Curtis shared about the look earlier this month.
“THE NATURAL BEAUTY REVOLUTION HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN!” Curtis wrote on Instagram, tagging Anderson. “This woman showed up and claimed her seat at the table with nothing on her face. I am so impressed and floored by this act of courage and rebellion.”

Anderson opened up about not wearing makeup to Paris Fashion Week events in an interview with Vogue France, saying she doesn’t “want to compete with the clothes.”
“I’m not into the makeup look right now,” she added. “My mom always told me, ‘At some point in your life, you’re not going to want to wear makeup on your skin,’ and she’s right. You kind of have to challenge beauty sometimes.”
Anderson said she hopes that by not wearing makeup she can help model the multitude of ways women can express themselves.
“I’m not trying to be the prettiest girl in the room,” she said. “I feel like it’s just freedom. It’s a relief.”
Anderson has joined the ranks of celebrity women embracing no-makeup looks or aging naturally, including Justine Bateman, Kelly Ripa, and Alicia Keys.
