'Game of Thrones' star Maisie Williams throws rightful shade at sexist headline.

Anyways, Williams recently attended a function that raised awareness and money for charity. The 19-year-old showed up to the masquerade ball wearing a dress and a headpiece.
"The Daily Mail" couldn't say anything about the function, except that Williams was braless.
This was their headline: "Unveiled: Game of Thrones' Maisie Williams goes braless in sheer lace dress and quirky headpiece at charity masquerade ball."
Maisie Williams wasn't going to allow that headline to fly. She shared the headline and photo with her millions of fans, and attached an alternative headline:
"Alternative
Game of Thrones actor, Maisie Williams, helps raise thousands at a Summer Masquerade Ball for @NSPCC."
Next to the alternate headline was a frog emoticon and a cup of tea.

My Two Cents
It is pretty sad that in this day and age, it is more important for people to focus on what someone is wearing (or not wearing), than to focus on the good they are doing for the community. This young woman was at a function, donating her time and money to an important cause. Did The Daily Mail miss that, or were they just looking for clickbait on their articles (Yes, I know what PPC is, but I wouldn't go talking about a 19 year old's chest in order to get page views and clicks. I have more class than that)?
Maisie Williams, keep doing what you're doing. You are a fantastic actress, and a poised young woman.
