Actress Luenell has supported Taraji Henson’s view on the gender wage gap in Hollywood during a recent interview. Henson, who has considered leaving acting due to the low pay, was described by Luenell as a “great actress” who should be making the same money as Meryl Streep. Luenell believes that all women, particularly those of ethnic backgrounds, are underpaid in every field. This disparity is magnified within the comedy industry as men often earn more than their female counterparts, due to their ability to make deals amongst themselves, Luenell suggests. She criticized the pay difference between actors and actresses, adding that Henson alongside others like Angela Bassett and Sheryl Lee Roth should be earning just as much as male actors and top white actresses. Luenell defended the frustration of actresses and highlighted the importance of equal pay in this industry.
