You’re giving her too much credit...a woman who has appeared in countless TV shows and films over the course of her career, with an annual income in the six and seven-figures, has no right to lecture anyone on income equality. If she wants a bigger paycheck, Ms. Arquette should demonstrate that she can bring more people into the theater.
As an actress, she appears to have two assets. She’s lucky to have had a career that has lasted this long; most members of her profession never earn enough to support themselves. If she’s really for income equality, perhaps she should donate half of her weekly salary on CSI:Cyber (well over $100,000 per episode) to he unemployed peers.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.
They’re saying what she was talking about what income equality for female actors...which comes across as more narcissistic. Remember those Sony email leaks where it came out that Jennifer Lawrence didn’t get paid as much as her costars? But seriously if you want more money than hold out for more money.
Based on how she looked in her dress, she’s more than compensated with the catering.
