There is nothing fun about being waxed. It’s actually quite painful on some parts of the body and anyone who says different is lying. That or they have a really high pain tolerance and for that we are jealous of them.
We don’t know why it both surprises and doesn’t surprise us that any of the cast members of Barbie have to be waxed. Granted it’s been a long time since we’ve had a Barbie, but it does make sense that the cast would need to be… well… smooth? Any word that we use there sounds weird, but hairless sounds meh.
Simu Liu is one of the stars of the movie and though we don’t know who he’s playing, it’s rumored he’s a version of Ken. And we can totally picture that.
The actor can’t say much about the movie, but he did say that he had to be waxed and that, “Waxing has been an education, to say the least.”
Well, yes, Simu, we can agree with you there. We’ve been there. We understand.
He continued by saying that, “It was one of the most painful experiences of my life.”
One has to hope that he didn’t experience the most painful places to get waxed. Just saying.
He added, “I have such a newfound admiration for the incredibly brave women who go through this on a monthly basis.”
We love you Simu and can’t wait to see you in Barbie.
