Michelle Williams and Tarana Burke
Michelle on Tarana's impact on the world: "I thought that I would have to raise my daughter to learn how to protect herself in a dangerous world and I think that because of the work that Tarana has done and the work that I'm learning how to do, we actually have the opportunity to hand our children a different world."
Tarana on the #MeToo movement: "It's deeply humbling, this is something that I started out of necessity and something that I thought that my community needed and it's grown over the years, but I never could've envisioned it growing like this. But this moment is so powerful because we're seeing a collaboration between these two worlds that people don't usually put together and would most likely have us pitted against each other. So it's really powerful to be on the red carpet tonight."

Marai Larasi and Emma Watson
Marai Larasi, executive director of Imkaan, on women in Hollywood speaking out against misconduct: "There's something about in women in Hollywood speaking out. There is a wall of silence around violence against women and girls and every time somebody speaks out, it just creates a bit of a crack in that wall."

Kelly Clarkson
On Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman: "It's cool to have a superhero chick for your daughter to be like, 'I wanna dress like Wonder Woman.'"

Justin Hartley
On Supporting Time's Up: "It means a lot to me and I think it means a lot to everyone and I think we all stand in solidarity here and I think we can all agree that time's up."
Meryl Streep
On abuse in all industries: "I think that people are aware now of a power imbalance and it's something that leads to abuse. It's led to abuse in our own industry and it's led to abuse across the domestic workers' field of work, it's in the military, it's in congress, it's everywhere and we wanted to fix that."
Ai-jen Poo
"I hope people see the momentum and the energy and the fact that we're uniting across all industries and all communities standing together saying we all deserve work places where we're safe and our work is valued and we can live and work with dignity. That's the future, and we have momentum, and we want to say to everyone that they should join us. This is a movement where there's space for everyone and there's a role for everyone."
