Oscar-nominated actor Minnie Driver slams wave forecasting titan Surfline, attacks followers, for wild gender imbalance on social account, “Why do you virtually never show videos of women surfing… show up and recognise it’s f*%king 2022!”

Surfline and its fans under fire from long-time Malibu surfer and Hollywood star…

British-born actor Minnie Driver, star of cult movie classics Grosse Point Blank and Big Night, as well as box-office smash Good Will Hunting, has taken to social media to vent over Surfline’s lack of gender diversity in its content.

Driver, who is fifty-two, became enraged after the wave forecasting titan posted a clip of Maui’s Eli Hanneman waving a whiff of Pipeline’s fragrance on his finger.

Amid a sea of praise, Driver, who still holds so much of the soft beauty of her girlhood, wrote,

“Why do you virtually never show videos of women surfing. Want me to send you some?”

One groupie shows up swooning, “Great point!” but other readers are less impressed.

“They post cool videos and the coolest tricks are done by guys,” writes one.

Driver responds, You don’t get out enough sport.”

“Please provide comparable clips,” writes another, reasonably I think.

Driver fumes, “Or show up and recognise its fucking 2022.”

Driver, a keen surfer, keeps a sweet little two-bedroom joint painted mint green in a Malibu mobile-home community called Paradise Cove, also home, I believe, to surf journalist great Sam George.

“I’m a long-time surfer. I lived in this community in Malibu for years… Early, late evening, whenever the wind’s good, waves are good, I’ll be out there.”
