Jennifer Lawrence offended over plunging dress furore, blasts media

<p>The <em>Red Sparrow</em> star Jennifer Lawrence announced today&nbsp;to take a year off from acting and focus her attention towards motivating young people to actively join politics.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The actress who was seen yesterday walking the red carpet at BAFTAs said that the year of &#39;2019&#39;&nbsp;will be about &#39;stepping away from the spotlight&#39;&nbsp;to focus all energy on working with a charity called &#39;Represent Us&#39;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 27-year-old actress said, &quot;I&#39;m going to take the next year off. I&#39;m going to be working with this organisation as a part of Represent Us... trying to get young people engaged politically on a local level. It doesn&#39;t have anything to do with partisan (politics). It&#39;s just anti-corruption and stuff trying to pass state by state laws that can help prevent corruption, fix our democracy.&quot;</p>

<p>The <em>Hunger Games </em>actress is currently working with the anti-corruption charity, and recently surprised a group of high school students at Cleveland Heights High School in Cleveland, Ohio with a talk about politics in association with the charity.</p>

US Sexual assault hotlines flooded after #MeToo campaign

<p>Sanjay Leela Bhansali perhaps could have never imagined that his magnum opus Padmavati would divide an entire country with contrasting opinions. &nbsp;Right from the time the filming of Padmavati began, there have been agitations around the film. In January Rajput Karni Sena, stormed the sets of the film, thrashed the director and vandalised the sets.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
While assurance from Bhansali productions came soon after that the film did not distort history or disrespect Rajput history in any manner, opposition against the film continued to grow.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Things took an ugly turn when the film&#39;s trailer released in October as protestors gained steam. While earlier the group had objected to an alleged dream sequence between Rani Padmavati and Alauddin Khilji - which the makers assured did not exist- later the protestors claimed that the film distorted history.<br />
<br />
The protests in the past few weeks have gained momentum after various state governments also raised objection towards the film. While the release of the film has been deferred- it was earlier scheduled to release on December 1- many of the states have declared a ban on the film&#39;s screening.<br />

Here is a quick look at which of the states have opposed to&nbsp;</p>

<p>The protests began in <strong>Rajasthan</strong> back in January when Rajput Karni Sena vandalised the film&#39;s set. Later in September, Karni Sena&#39;s Lokendra Singh Kalvi reiterates that his organisation will oppose the film&#39;s screening if facts are &quot;distorted&quot;. Earlier in November, protest by the Karni Sena against the film picked up the pace in Rajasthan with a complete bandh observed in Chittorgarh. Now, the state CM Vasundhara Raje has stated that the film will not be released in the state until changes in the film are made.The Chief Minister had suggested that the film and its plot should be reviewed by a committee of renowned historians, film personalities, and representatives of society at large.<br />
Members of BJP wrote to the Chief Election Commissioner seeking a ban on the release of the film in Gujarat in the wake of the assembly elections in the state. Expressing concern about distortion of history in the movie, the BJP leaders stated that CBFC should only release the film after the &#39;objectionable&#39; scenes are removed.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In Noida,<strong> Uttar Pradesh</strong>, members of the Karni Sena had vandalised a cinema hall for screening the trailer of the film earlier this month. The UP Home Minister had even written a letter to the Censor board to consider the sentiments of the people before certifying the film. They feared if the film released it would affect the peace and harmony in the state. Now CM Yogi Adityanath has stated that the film will be not be screened in the state if the desired cuts are not made. &quot;Sentiments of the people of the state should not be hurt,&quot; reiterated Yogi.<br />

Watch: New trailer for the movie 'mother!' is out and it will heighten your state of confusion

&quot;Hunger Games&quot; star Jennifer Lawrence on Tuesday topped a Forbes magazine list of the world&#39;s highest-paid actress for the second straight year, earning some $46 million, followed by Melissa McCarthy.<br />
<br />
Lawrence, 26, took the top spot largely through a slice of the profits from the final movie in the &quot;Hunger Games&quot; franchise, as well as a big upfront fee for her forthcoming space adventure movie &quot;Passengers,&quot; Forbes said.<br />
<br />
Yet Lawrence&#39;s estimated payday was likely well below that for Hollywood&#39;s leading men, Forbes said, despite the actress sparking a debate about the gender pay gap last year. She declared she was &quot;finished being adorable&quot; when it came to negotiating better deals for herself.<br />
<br />
Lawrence&#39;s 2016 earnings dropped 11.5 percent from her 2015 total of $52 million. Forbes will release its list of the world&#39;s highest-paid actors on Thursday. Last year Robert Downey Jr topped the list with an estimated $80 million.<br />
<br />
Neither, however, came close to pop star Taylor Swift, who was named the top-earning celebrity of 2016 earlier this year, pulling in an estimated $170 million from record sales and her world tour.<br />
<br />
McCarthy took home $33 million in earnings, up $10 million from 2015 in part from her payday for the controversial female reboot of &quot;Ghostbusters.&quot;<br />
<br />
It was the biggest annual paycheck to date for the star of television comedy &quot;Mike and Molly.&quot; McCarthy, 45, also launched a clothing line for sizes 4 to 28 after becoming frustrated at the outfits available for larger women.<br />
<br />
Scarlett Johansson of &quot;Captain America: Civil Wars&quot; was third at $25 million, down nearly 30 percent from 2015.<br />
<br />
Together, the world&rsquo;s 10 highest-paid actresses tallied a combined $205 million between June 1, 2015 and June 1, 2016, before management fees and taxes, Forbes said.<br />
<br />
The estimates include earnings from movies, TV and endorsements from cosmetic and other companies. Bollywood star Deepika Padukone is the only newcomer on the list.<br />
<br />
The rest of the top 10 2016 highest-paid actresses are:<br />
<br />
4. Jennifer Aniston - $21 million<br />
<br />
5. Fan Bingbing - $17 million<br />
<br />
6. Charlize Theron - $16.5 million<br />
<br />
7. Amy Adams - $13.5 million<br />
<br />
8. Julia Roberts - $12 million<br />
<br />
9. Mila Kunis - $11 million<br />
<br />
10. Deepika Padukone - $10 million<br />
