Lawrence that is, not Paltrow in AH.
Equal Pay means that women tennis pros get paid the same for playing Three Sets. While the Men play five. See? Fair......
Main point is if an actor is dissatisfied with their compensation the person to blame is the agent who negotiated the deal, or him or herself for signing the contract. In the case of American Hustle maybe Ms. Lawrence discovered during filming that Christian Bale lived up to his reputation for manic perfectionism and she wanted a hazardous duty increase. Either way, after getting a gold statuette and huge profile boost out of the deal she’s really got no reason to complain. And Paltrow? She’s an Obama lap dancer with a tenth the talent (or looks) of Jennifer Lawrence.
