Christina Hendricks had several years of stage experience before she landed her breakout role inMad Men. She brought Joan Harris to life and also bagged several high-profile awards for the same. While her acting on the show was remarkable, it also brought a deeper issue of Hollywood’s long-standing exploitation of female actors.
The Jon Hamm starrer brought major publicity for the actress, but for all the wrong reasons. She, along with other female co-stars, faced the troubling pattern of objectification. And now, a recentMad Mensearch history perfectly showcased how this objectification didn’t stop with Hendricks.
