Uma Thurman Warned Daughter Maya Hawke About Quentin Tarantino and His 'Fetish'
Maya Hawke recounted Uma Thurman’s advice to 'keep your shoes on' when working with director Quentin Tarantino, who denies rumored foot fetish claims despite frequent foot close-ups.
- On Tuesday, Maya Hawke said her mother Uma Thurman advised her on Amy Poehler’s 'Good Hang' podcast to `Keep your shoes on` when working with Quentin Tarantino.
- The pattern of lingering foot shots in Quentin Tarantino’s films includes close-ups of Margot Robbie, Margaret Qualley and Dakota Fanning, fueling long-running rumors of an alleged foot fetish.
- Speaking to late-night host Conan O’Brien in July 2024, Oscar-nominated actress Uma Thurman said Quentin Tarantino `staunchly denies` the foot-fetish allegation and joked about urging O’Brien to ask him about being barefoot during interviews.
- Media reaction was broadly amused, as Amy Poehler and Maya Hawke laughed on the podcast and Poehler called the warning `perfect advice`, while Brad Pitt jokingly thanked `Margot Robbie’s feet`.
- Beyond jokes, Tarantino’s own comments show that despite a 2023 Page Six report alleging a $10,000 t payment, he told GQ he `doesn't take it seriously` and calls the shots `just good direction`.
