I'm only seeing this clip. I don't know what the question even was...but answering questions on camera is a whole different thing...the relationship between the woman and the camera (and/or) reporter is different and not relevant.
I'm not judging her actions as 'good' or 'bad'.
It was her choice to enforce the boundary of "we're on the red carpet and I'm being asked a question....so I'm going to claim the space to answer the question I was asked".
I don't use the word "Chide" very often, but maybe you're missing the point? This isn't about Alec and Hilaria. This is about a person being asked a question on the red carpet, and then saying "I won't be interrupted", and then attempting to make a statement.
Ok. But you started asking me questions and I answered them. I care about how I act, and I think that's important. It is also important to set boundaries, but they kinda defete the point if they're done harshly or rudely.
Even if she wanted to control the situation, which is another thing I don't agree with doing(but that's a different issue) but even if one wanted to do that, there are so many other ways to do that that are still respectful to the person you're setting the boundary with.
As I thought I mentioned.... it's not about "controlling the situation". It's about responding to the question posed to her in the - and this is key - time/capacity allotted for quickly getting someone from the red carpet, to the film/event.
What I haven't understood your response to is what it's like to operate in a big city where communication is different in order to move things forward in a timely and orderly manner.
I'd love to see an example of what you're talking about in a similar situation if you happen to have one/dig one up.
