Gender
inequality
has
always
been
prevalent.
It
isn't
restricted
to
certain
sections
of
the
society.
From
celebrities
to
government
officials,
everyone
is
subject
to
it.
But,
the
celebrities
have
lately
been
a
major
voice
addressing
the
issue.
These
Hollywood
divas
slammed
sexist
questions
when
asked!
Just
a
few
months
ago,
many
actresses
in
Hollywood
started
raising
their
voices
against
sexism
that
exists
in
Hollywood
and
also,
supported
their
fellow
actresses
who
were
subject
to
it.
Jennifer
Lawrence
spoke
about
the
issue
through
her
letter
to
Lenny
that
gained
a
lot
of
importance.
Sexism
needn't
have
to
always
be
associated
with
one's
wage
or
profession,
though
those
are
the
very
common
ones.
For
instance,
an
actress
is
called
'feminist'
only
because
she's
clad
in
pink
or
carried
'girly'
stuff.
An
actress
on
the
red
carpet,
who
is
present
at
the
occasion
to
receive
an
award
for
her
brilliant
acting
skills
is
questioned
about
the
contents
in
her
purse!
This
is
the
limit.
Once,
Ariana
Grande
was
on
a
radio
interview
and
this
is
what
happened
:
The
radio
jockeys
asked
what
was
her
favorite
emoticon.
When
she
said
the
unicorn,
the
jockeys
just
sighed
saying
"
girls",
to
which
Ariana
gave
it
back
saying,
"Boys.
They
always
use
unicorn".
She
also
shut
them
up
by
answering
to
their
sexist
questions.
Such
incidents
are
too
common
everywhere
around
the
world
and
unfortunately,
it's
the
women
who
are
mostly
subject
to
such
sexist
questions
and
comments.
When
it
comes
to
female
celebrities,
all
they
want
to
know
is
what
they
eat
and
what
they
wear.
It
could
also
be
due
to
those
handful
of
celebrities
who
are
famous
for
no
reason
and
pay
importance
to
nothing
but
their
appearance.
But,
these
beauties
proved
to
the
world
they
are
more
than
just
that.
Let's
have
a
look
at
the
Hollywood
divas
who
slammed
the
sexist
questions
asked
to
them
:
Scarlett
Johansson
On
being
asked
less
irrelevant
questions
and
sitting
next

an
actor
who
was
subject
to
important
questions,
"How
come
you
get
the
really
interesting
existential
question
and
I
get
the
rabbit
food
question?"
Jennifer
Lawrence
When
she
was
asked
about
her
weight
during
a
movie
interview,
"Would
you
feel
comfortable
if
I
ask
you
how
much
you
weigh?
The
film
is
more
interesting
than
discussing
this
subject."

smile
on
their
face,

bitch,

that
is
really
unfortunate."
