Stephen Fry teams up with Norwich City FC and War Paint For Men


11 11 2020

Stephen Fry has joined forces with Norwich City FC and men's makeup brand War Paint For Men, appearing in a new mental health video series, Challenging Stereotypes, with footballer Darren Eadie and the brand's founder Danny Gray.

The first episode discusses topics such as embracing honesty, the impact of lockdown, and the stars' own mental health journeys, and Fry, president of mental health charity Mind and former Norwich City director, said 'There's a recognition that courage and bravery, which are supposedly a manly quality, comes from people who admit their flaws. There’s nothing brave about saying I am very strong and fast and I am good at football, that’s just boasting, it’s not brave. But brave is saying I have weaknesses, I have fears, I have a secret... That’s courage'.
