5. Amy Adams
Actress Amy Adams would probably be paid a lot more if she were willing to talk more about how women are not paid as much as men in Hollywood (or anywhere else, for that matter). When Adams starred inAmerican Hustle, she and Jennifer Lawrence received 2 percent less in back-end payments than the men in the movie. Amy Pascal, the studio co-chairman, stated that there was “truth here” in reference to the fact that male stars Christian Bale, Jeremy Renner and Bradley Cooper received 9 percent in compensation, and Lawrence and Adams only received 7 percent. We’re guessing this is just a small detail when it comes to all the disparities that Adams has seen and experienced first hand.
