Matt Gaetz’s wife calls for a Barbie boycott – after attending British embassy’s pink carpet premiere: Congressman’s wife criticizes Ken’s ‘low T’ and says film is NOT the same as doll she grew up with

The wife of Rep. Matt Gaetz was dressed up in pink Monday night for a cocktail party to celebrate the launch of the Barbie movie, before giving a scathing review advising fans who grew up with the toys to steer clear.

Ginger Gaetz was one of the revelers who walked the pink carpet to drink pink cocktails at the British Embassy in Washington, D.C.

Her husband even got in the mood with a pink sports jacket.

But afterward, she said she was disappointed by the film’s values ​​and slammed star Ryan Gosling’s “beta energy.”

“The Barbie I grew up with was a representation of limitless possibilities, embracing diverse careers and female empowerment,” she wrote in a tweet.

“The 2023 Barbie movie sadly fails to address any notion of faith or family and attempts to normalize the idea that men and women can’t work together positively (yuck).”

The film will premiere on the weekend. But attendees, including members of the Washington Spirit women’s basketball team and politicians, got an early viewing on Monday, along with a chance to hear from director Greta Gerwig, who showed up for a question and answer session.

The film was made in the UK and stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.

British officials see it as an opportunity to cash in on iconic American toys, highlighting the strength of the British film industry.

“The UK is Warner Brothers’ largest base outside the US and Barbie was primarily filmed in the UK,” Dame Karen Pierce, the British Ambassador, tweeted.

‘An excellent example of the relationship between the UK and the US in the film industry!’

As a result, the ambassador’s residence, designed by Sir William Lutyens to resemble an English country house, was transformed into Barbie’s dream home.

Disco balls hung from the rose bushes and guests ate pink burgers and sushi.

Afterwards, guests went to see the movie at a movie theater in Georgetown.

But the film about such a beloved ambitious toy is not without controversy.

Republicans are outraged that a crayon map in the film features the “nine-dash line,” used by Chinese authorities to demonstrate their claim to a whopping 90 percent of the South China Sea.

That has revolted the likes of Senator Ted Cruz and Representative Mike Gallagher, who have accused Hollywood of engaging in Chinese Communist Party propaganda.

Ginger Gaetz had other concerns. The negatives, she said, were: “Unfortunate depiction of big dreams that provoked fear instead of inspiration; Disappointingly low T from Ken; Unfair treatment of pregnant Barbie Midge.

“I really wanted to enjoy it, but in the end I felt let down.”

She also criticized Gosling in a follow-up tweet.

“He’s got great beta energy in this one,” she said.

However, she had praise for Robbie’s performance, costume design and soundtrack.

The film has been praised by reviewers for breaking away from what could have been a cynical marketing money-making scheme.

“In fact, it’s profoundly bizarre, conceptually slippery and often roaringly hilarious,” wrote critic Robbie Collin in Britain’s Daily Telegraph.
