Stella Young

Gives Talk0 Comments

Young, a disability activist, leads a talk on what she calls “inspiration porn” – society’s habit of making disabled people into inspirational figures. She challenges our culture to raise their expectations of what disabled men and women are capable of doing and to look upon disability as the “norm” and not the exception.

Disability doesn’t make you exceptional, but questioning what you think you know about it does.

I'm not your inspiration, thank you very much | Stella Young

TV Appearance0 Comments

Williams guest stars on the view and talks about raising a teenage son, her success and new book.

What I discovered this weekend is that my son doesn’t like me anymore. You know how it is, I know what it is. I don’t have my period. I’ve discovered this a while ago but the ball just got smacked home this weekend. He’s all into his father, you know how 13 year olds are, I was the same way when I was thirteen but it is breaking my heart. He says things to me like ‘Why are you so pissed? but he’ll say why are you so pissed? Like I’m pissed all the time, like I’m the one with the problem. He’s the one who’s thirteen and I get it and I know that this phase only last for four years or something like that, but it is breaking my heart.

 

The Love Punch

In this comedy, directed by Joel Hopkins, Brosnan plays Richard. Their nest egg stolen out from under them by a deceitful French financier, Richard and Kate recruit their former neighbours to help them steal the $10 million diamond that their nemesis has just purchased for his fiancée. Co-starring Emma Thompson and Louise Bourgoin.

I certainly got the jokes within the joke, dressing up in a wet suit, sitting in a Twingo, scaling a rubber mountain, dressing up and stealing a diamond, of course.
