George Clooney: Sony hack exposed gender inequality in Hollywood
The Tomorrowland star says talks over unequal pay are the ‘only good thing that came’ out of the leaked emails
While criticising last year’s Sony hack as “an abomination”, George Clooney has also said it was a positive force in bringing about a renewed conversation about the pay gap between men and women in Hollywood.
In a conversation with BBC Radio 4, the actor referred to the leaked emails that suggested American Hustle stars Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence were getting paid less than their male counterparts.
“One good thing that’s come out of [the Sony hack] is the conversation in very liberal Hollywood that women aren’t being paid the same and … there’s something like 15 female directors in a town of directors,” he said. “I think it’s a very good conversation that they’re starting to have.”
Clooney then went onto say that his production company has a number of female executives and that he loved the idea that his new film Tomorrowland featured more than one smart, strong woman.
Rose Byrne has also addressed the issue in a new interview with Pridesource.com, referring to the content of the Sony emails as “illegal”.
“All that stuff that was leaked through the internet when Sony was hacked – it all speaks for itself,” Byrne said. “So, it is beyond just misogyny. It’s legitimate discrimination based on gender, which is illegal. Any discrimination is, whether it’s sexuality, race or gender.”
Byrne recently founded an all-female production company with the aim of developing theatre, film and television with a female presence.
Earlier this month, Charlize Theron also weighed in on the exposed inequality, saying she used it to demand an equal pay for the upcoming Snow White and the Huntsman prequel. “When I thought about the temperature out there – with finding out what Jennifer and Amy were being paid on a set with guy actors who are their counterparts … They’re just as good as any of the guys on there. Yeah, that pissed me off!”
The recent findings of an investigation by the American Civil Liberties Union found that there is still “rampant discrimination” against women in the industry and it requires further examination from state and federal agencies.

Jenni Murray is interviewed in today's Mail on Sunday supplement, Event.
One of the questions was - Who would be your dream dinner date?
Jenni's answer -'No question, George Clooney. I interviewed him for Woman's Hour recently and he was as gorgeous a man as you'll find at that age, and just so charming. I interviewed him at Claridge's and afterwards he happily posed for photos with the production team. What's more, he helped them pack up the recording equipment afterwards - now that's a first!'

Yes Donnamarie I like hearing comments
about George from people who've actually met him.
That's the only information I care about, apart from his own words of course !
