Did Matt Gaetz’s Wife Call for Boycott of 'Barbie' After Watching the Movie?

In July 2023, the highly anticipated "Barbie" movie premiered. Among the people who went to see the film at an early screening was Republican U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz and his wife, Ginger Luckey Gaetz. And she did not love it.

She tweeted her criticism, which led to news headlines like, "Matt Gaetz's wife calls for Barbie boycott while posting photos of her posing in pink on red carpet." The Daily Mail wrote, "Rep. Matt Gaetz's wife calls for Barbie BOYCOTT over its disappointing 'feminine empowerment', lack of 'faith and family' and Ken's 'low T' - as poor reviews for the movie flood in." 

While the headlines are slightly misleading and/or ambiguous, she was calling for a boycott of the movie, not the doll.
