Girls are also less likely than boys to use and own devices, and gain access to tech-related skills and jobs. Only by addressing the inequity and exclusion that span geographies and generations can we usher in a digital revolution for all, with all. Adolescent girls around the world film their lives under lockdown.
Eight adolescent girls and young women recoding gender equality. Most girls don't grow up in a world of opportunity. They build one. Follow Billboard. All rights reserved.
It's the first time in Hot history that an album's debut single reaches No. Rihanna: The Billboard Cover Story. Rihanna also moves to the forefront for most No. She had been tied with Usher for the past two weeks, with eight chart-toppers since Photos: Rihanna's Fashion Evolution.
The latest "Glee" episode, titled "The Substitute," brings only a pair of titles by the cast onto the Hot , each one featuring guest vocals by Gwyneth Paltrow.
This isn't the first time the Barbadian songstress has worked with the Norwegian producing team. Just days after joining Twitter, the singer hinted at the single in a tweet directed at Seacrest.
In addition to Stargate, the singer has also been working with Sean Garrett. From a traumatised kid to a prized player, Oher's life was changed by the kindness and love of a woman who took him in during his worst times.
Blind and deaf Michelle McNally proves to us that if one really wants something then there is nothing stopping them. Caged in a world of blackness, McNally did not let that deter her from achieving a degree. Debraj Sahai, her teacher who later succumbs to Alzheimer's, breaks her free from the world of darkness. McNally and Sahai show us to fight for everything we hold dear.
It's a woman's world! Inspired by the real-life Gulabi Gang, Gulaab Gang has women as saviours and women as perpetrators and women as victims and women as fighters. The plot might begin to seem aimless halfway but it shows women in all their powers and it is wonderful. From a singer at a provincial bar to the owner of a business empire, Coco Chanel's journey is laudable.
This French movie does, what Chanel herself would have approved - not over-sentimentalise her struggling years. If there is any movie that is as spectacular and captures the indomitable spirit of a woman like Gone With The Wind did, it is Mother India. A poverty-stricken mother fights against every odd - there are a lot of those in the movie - to raise her sons. There is perhaps no other movie that tries to capture the essence of being a mother like Mehboob Khan's epic drama.
Life of black women were unbelievably tough to say the least. Things may look better now but not everything is right. The Color Purple tells the story of a poor, abused woman Celie Harris who finds solace in two other women Shug and Sofia.
This is another movie that shows that a woman can be a woman's greatest support. What makes a woman a good woman? Astitva looks at the paradox of being a good woman - that there is nothing that defines one.
Because the reputation of being a good woman can only be bestowed and never earned, something that Aditi learns the hard way. Whoever said Disney princesses are frail and delicate have't watched Mulan. Disney's attempt to break its own stereotypes met with a successful end with this fierce heroine who fought along with the men to save the kingdom from the Huns.
Erin Brockovich is the woman who single-handedly brought down the energy corporation Pacific Gas and Electric Company to their knees and saved a lot of lives from chromium poisoning. It is quite a feat for an individual to fight against such a giant. She shows us not to back away from a fight if it is for the right reasons. And Kahaani proves it.
It follows Vidya Bagchi, who connives, manipulates and basically leaves no stones unturned to find her husband's killer and avenge his death. And all along you root and cheer for her. It's a wrenching love story of two women with rosy tints of first love, followed by the turbulence and the ugly demise of it all.
The movie is naturally told and makes no deal out of the fact that it is about two women and that is how it should be. This movie must be watched exactly for the reasons Katherine Anne Watson accepts a position at the conservative private liberal arts Wellesley College. As Watson dreams, the next generation must be educated and not only literate and learn to be themselves and not just groom themselves to fetch a prized groom in the end.
Watson's liberalism versus the institution's conservatism is what makes Mona Lisa Smile a must-watch. This is another women's world, albeit one that is at the margins of the society. Sanichari is a professional mourner who earns her living by weeping at the deaths of upper-caste males. Set in Rajasthan, Sanichari has lived an entire life of misfortune but has bravely faced it all. Her life is lit up by Bikhni, another mourner who enters her life.
Because Amelie is a girl who devotes her life into bringing happiness to others. There is nothing as uplifting and wonderful that can compete with that. A bunch of oddballs decide to join forces and compete at the national a cappella competition. Hilarity ensues.
