An episode that happened in Brazil in 1995 affected the former first lady of the United States. Hillary Clinton, 74, revealed in a recent interview that she stopped wearing dresses after a photo was taken during a meeting between her and Ruth Cardoso, wife of then Brazilian President Fernando Henrique. The image even became an advertising campaign for a lingerie brand because of a bust: the political underwear was on display because of the cross of legs.
“I was sitting on a sofa and the press came in. There were a lot of photographers taking pictures,” Hillary begins, talking about the situation. “All of a sudden, the White House is alerted to these billboards that showed me sitting with what I thought was my legs together. But the way it was photographed, it was kind of suggestive,” she told CBS’s “Monday Morning” show. .
After the incident, Hillary also reported that she began to notice that photographers were strategically positioned below her at events. All the professionals were eager to try another indiscreet situation. “I realized that they were always trying to take me by surprise”, she said, who from then on adopted the sets with long pants in her appearances. “I couldn’t handle it, the backlash. So I started wearing pants.”
The revelation surprised even her daughter, Chelsea Clinton, who was unaware of the story. “It’s very scary and by far the biggest surprise revelation I’ve had about my mother. I didn’t know,” she commented on Hillary’s outburst.
