After the Sony hack revealed how much less Lawrence was being paid than her male co-stars, Lawrence saw just how serious and a pervasive an issue the gender pay gap is in Hollywood. "[...] if I'm honest with myself, I would be lying if I didn't say there was an element of wanting to be liked that influenced my decision to close the deal without a real fight," she continues. If anything, I'm sure they were commended for being fierce and tactical, while I was busy worrying about coming across as a brat and not getting my fair share. "Again, this might have NOTHING to do with my vagina, but I wasn't completely wrong when another leaked Sony email revealed a producer referring to a fellow lead actress in a negotiation as a 'spoiled brat.'" Lawrence says.
