Emma Stone is 2017 's Highest Paid Actress!
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,August 18 2017]
Emma Stone is officially the highest paid actress in Hollywood in 2017 according to the latest reports.
Her remuneration for movies like La La Land granted her a cool pay of $26 Millions per movie.
Next in line on Forbes' list are Jennifer Aniston, who pulled in $25.5 million, and Jennifer Lawrence, who earned $24 million.
However this doesn't change the fact that the actress is getting paid not just for her talent but also for “color”, at least that's what the insiders say.
“White women,” King said to the actress. “If you're African American or Hispanic it goes down, and then Asian Americans make 90 cents to the dollar.”
However, Stone remains humble and says that “at best women make 80 cents to a dollar men make”
“That's something they do for me because they feel it's what's right and fair,” she said. “That's something that's also not discussed, necessarily ? that our getting equal pay is going to require people to selflessly say, That's what's fair.'”
She continued, “If my male co-star, who has a higher quote than me but believes we are equal, takes a pay cut so that I can match him, that changes my quote in the future and changes my life. And this is Billie Jean's feminism, and I love it ? she is equality, man: equality, equality, equality.”
The top five female earners are Melissa McCarthy ($18 million) and Mila Kunis ($15.5 million).
Pretty cool!
