Jennifer Lawrence feels uncomfortable negotiating her pay!Author : AZIndia News Desk
Los Angeles, Dec 19(AZINS) Actress Jennifer Lawrence thinks she is to "blame" for the gender wage gap as she finds it "awkward" negotiating what she should be paid.
The 25-year-old Hunger Games star said it is her own fault that there is such a divide between what the film industry pays men and women, reported CBS News.
"I feel awkward negotiating, I feel uncomfortable asking for more money, I don't want to seem like a brat. I don't want to seem like all these things that are only words that are used for women. There was no one to blame but myself [for the gender pay gap]."
"I want to be that person who will say that thing that's really hard to say, that's really awkward and really difficult. One day I want to be able to just say it, and not make a joke, and not try to make it cute, but to just say it."
The Oscar-winner previously penned an essay about the issue, insisting she should be paid the same as her male counterparts.
