Rose McGowan is not buying Natalie Portman s brand of activism.

On Tuesday night, the former Charmed star, memoirist and activist expressed her disgust with the protest cape Portman wore to the 2020 Oscars in a Facebook post.

I find Portmans type of activism deeply offensive to those of us who actually do the work, McGowan wrote . Im not writing this out of bitterness, I am writing out of disgust. I just want her and other actresses to walk the walk.

Portmans cape which was embroidered with the names of female directors who made noteworthy films in 2019 showed solidarity with those who were frustrated that no women were nominated for Best Director. Images of Portmans cape went viral.

McGowan also called out Portman, saying she was more like an actress acting the part of someone who cares, for not working with many female directors herself.
