"Probably."

This is what award-winning Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman answered when she testified at the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee, when asked by Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, on whether the movie industry "played a bad role," according to AP.

Nicole Kidman should now what she is talking about, having inhaled Hollywood for a long time now. She testified as a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM), promoting the International Violence against Women Act.

She back-pedaled in saying that despite Hollywood's propensity in giving women demeaning roles, the industry has also made efforts to ending women violence.

"I can't be responsible for all of Hollywood but I can certainly be responsible for my own career," she said. Good for her, because she has the privilege of picking her roles, but other Hollywood actresses, particularly low-megawatt ones, do not have the same fortune.
