Oscars 2015: Jennifer Lopez & Meryl Streep Go Nuts For Patricia Arquette | Hollyscoop News

Patricia Arquette's speech just brought down the house at the 2015 Oscars, but it brought JLo and Meryl Streep to their feet!

[Nautilus]

So because they're highly paid, Meryl and Jennifer cannot be supportive of equal rights for women?

[samkeller]

Anyone else think Meryl always has the best reactions

[poultryleg]

she just had to say that JLo and Meryl were two of the highest paid celebrities in Hollywood didn't she. . . . take several seats and let these two women stand up and use their position to advocate for equal pay and equal rights 🙄😷

[dnhk]

She wasn't demanding a salary raise for actresses only, she was calling out for gender equality, cheering for woman across the nation! And I applaud her for that. The movie Boyhood narrates and discusses several important issues and it basically brings awareness...Brilliant movie, actress, and speech.

The headline for this video is a bit wrong, Meryl goes nuts for a good cause, but JLo goes nuts only after she notices that cameras are filming her. And only for that reason.

[gwencunningham]

It was equal rights in general, not just for actresses. It wasn't just Meryl and J-Lo that were excited. It was the entire audience.

Forbes Highest Paid Actors/Actresses 2014:  The top 10 includes TWO women. Neither is Meryl Streep or Jennifer Lopez. The scale from highest to lowest, looks like this:  Man, Woman, Man, Man, Man, Man, Man, Man, Woman, Man, Man, Woman, Woman,  Woman, Woman, Woman, Woman, Woman, Woman, Woman. None of those women are Meryl Streep or Jennifer Lopez, either, just saying. Can we also address the fact she did NOT demand higher pay for working actresses? Like, at all? She demanded equal pay for women. Period. This video with it's sloppy content and final message which equates to telling two hard-working women to "sit down and shut up", is honestly part of the problem.

Seriously, if she wasn't sitting next to Meryl Streep, Jlo wouldn't have reacted the way she did. What a poseur.

[FSaliniUNDemandforIE]

JLo went crazy because Merly Streep did....

[Mory]

Meryl's reaction I believe as honest, JLO's just on the bandwagon.

[XLongXGoneX]

"As though there not the most well paid in Hollywood" if that's your reaction then it says a lot about your stance on equality and what the whole point of that message was about.

[ferapple]

I think they don't want higher pay, they want equal pay with men. I think that's fair.

[mrlibyanb]

I wasn’t feeling J Lo’s reaction
So fake and phony
She was so trying to please the legend sitting next to her

[emilybrehmer]

The point of them supporting this is because they have a voice because they're so big.. people listen to them

[anetupouata]

Meryl streep is never speechless, is never overrated, when she talks i am never bored. I love her, love her acting

[sieekakhan]

Ohhhh so this is where the meme of Meryl came from

[samkeller]

Btw they didn’t mean they wanted more money it was about equal rights and wages for all women

[saz]

It's not about actresses getting paid, it's about gender equality for fuck's sake

[jeffcaldwell]

Why did she have to shade Meryl and Jennifer in the end though lol

[reginaldandrews]

"Streep and JLO hooting and hollering, as if they're NOT two of the highest paid celebrities in Hollywood!"😂😂😂The woman commentating is pure gold!!
