Nina Dobrev talks women empowerment

Actress Nina Dobrev spoke to Us Weekly about women empowerment at the Create & Cultivate conference in Los Angeles on Saturday. The Vampire Diaries star, who showed off her ’70s shag haircut at the event, said, “I support women. I love supporting women. I want to bring women up. For me, one of the most important things with this whole movement (#MeToo) is to make sure that younger women understand that they have the voice and the power to make and instill change.”

She added, “I didn’t know that I had that power when I was 20 years old, and I wish that this movement had happened 10 years ago so that I could have benefited from it earlier. But now that it’s happening, I want to hopefully inspire change with younger women.” Nina continued, “I feel like there’s an energy shift, but it’s the beginning stages. We have a lot more work to do, and it’s very inspiring.”
