Respecting the Female Gaze in "Run the World"

CherryPop

Run the World stars Amber Stevens West and Corbin Reid break down the first half of the two-part season finale and touch upon the importance of female friendships, mutual respect in a partnership, and representing all types of female pleasure and sex on screen.

“It made me more comfortable [...] to be a part of a show that was going to include intimacy scenes on screen in the most realistic way possible.” - Amber Stevens West

”Women know what they're experiencing, so it makes sense that, if it's from a woman's gaze, that it's going to be more relatable.” - Corbin Reid
