Actress Selma Blair, who discovered in 20😼18 that she has multiple sclerosis and has been in remission since 2021, has said tha🔯t she wants to design her own "kick ass" wheelchair.
After working on her latest venture, an accessible fashion line with her designer pal, Isaac M🦋izrahi, she's already thinking of other ideas toꩲ not only help the lives of those living with disabilities but to make them look bougie.
She told Parade magazine: "Oh my gosh. I want chic. I want room to play. There🥃 are things beyond my pay grade but people with disᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚabilities should have ostentatious fun.”
“I'd love to have a collaboration with a company to make a wheelchair. I want to mak🥂e a kick-ass thing for everyone so we can all get on the same talking page. To have luxury goods coveted by all but especially the disabled community can be a real equaliser."
The actress is using her platform to eꦛnsure people with disabilitiesꦉ can still lead a normal life and have the same experiences as everyone else, reports aceshowbiz.com.
Asked if her activism - including helping President Joe Biden celebrate the new Americ💜ans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act - has given her a new purpose, she replied: "Sure, I did have those nights where I'd wish, Whoa I'd love to have more roles."
"Of course, I would have loved some type of stardom. But 🃏I was not tie♛d to it in that way. I never thought of an Oscar speech in my life. Never crossed my mind. Then I felt like I needed to take that next step in my life and do what feels good."
"So, I did. I did come out and tell people 💃I had MS even though people said not to because no woman wants to feel like they're not capable of getting a job. That's why it's important for me to go to the White House and remind people that we do needꦡ legislation for all these things - and need clothes to go to these events!"
