She's complaining she doesn't get paid as much as Meryl Streep because she's black.

She specifically brings up Streep, Julianne Moore and Sigourney Weaver getting paid more, which I really don't believe is accurate. Maybe Meryl Streep, but she's got 3 Oscars and has been in the game since the 70s. Christopher Plummer, Vanessa Redgrave, Maggie Smith and Frances McDormand are all Triple Crown winners (Oscar, Emmy, Tony) and it's not like they're taking in large amounts of money. I mean Vin Diesel is a black actor as is pretty horrible, but be gets paid a pretty penny.

I like Viola Davis and look forward to stuff that she's in, but I feel she is off base here.

I wonder if she has any opinion about Denzel Washington's fees. He's black, so he must be getting screwed too. Is that right, Viola?

Maybe she'll claim that she's getting paid less than him.

That's an issue for her agent. She'll get there.

That's a shocker.

Doesn't she just sound like an absolute delight. She is surrounded all day every day by the yes people, I assume she lives in LA - narcississm must be like a social contagion in that nighmarish environment.
Still, fuck this bint sideways.
