Maya Hawkestar of Stranger Things and daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawkespoke to Supreme Court of the United States “fuck off” after revocation of Roe v. wadea legal challenge that guaranteed abortion in the US, according to information from the NME.
During participation in The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last Tuesday, the 28th, the actress opened up about her mother’s history with abortion. In preparation for participating in the program, Hawke revealed how he talked to Thurman about an opinion piece by the Washington Post written in 2021, in which the actress of Kill Bill – Volume 1 (2003) described having terminated a pregnancy in late adolescence.
“We’ve just talked about the decision of the Supreme Court and this essay that my mom wrote a few months ago when they put more restrictions on access to abortion, and that kind of preceded all of that,” the actress said. “My mom wrote this really beautiful essay about the abortion she had when she was very young, and about how if she hadn’t done that, she wouldn’t have become the person she has, and I wouldn’t exist.”
Both my parents’ lives would have been totally crippled if she hadn’t had access to safe and legal health care – essential health care.
“Of course, rich people will always be able to get abortions, but a lot of people, because of this decision this week, not only won’t be able to pursue their dreams, but they’ll also lose their lives and be insecure. And I just wanted to say that, like, f*** yourself to Supreme Court,” continued.
The statement of Maya Hawke was applauded by the audience and, while the expletive was censored by the program, the presenter, Jimmy Fallon, said several times: “You can say this for sure.” Then the actress replied: “I can say, ‘F*** Supreme Court‘? Oh, fuck you, Supreme Court.”
