George Clooney & Viola Davis Talk Sexism In Hollywood

George Clooney & Viola Davis Talk Sexism In Hollywood Hey Everyone I am Diana Madison for Hollyscoop. Lets face it, times are changing but when it comes to getting older, women still have the a*s end of the deal. You know the adage: 'Men age like wine, women age like milk.' Not in Hollywood, just take a look at JLO. In THE upcoming issue of Entertainment Weekly​ George Clooney and Viola Davis discuss the double standard that exists in Hollywood when it comes to aging. "There's this strange thing that's happened over the last 25 or 30 years where there's this decision being made that women aren't able to carry the box office," Clooney says. "Now, 'Bridesmaids' has proved that to be bullsh-t, and 'The Help' has proven it to be bullsh-it. But it's much harder to get a film with a woman lead made. When a man hits 40 is when roles just begin to happen. And for women it doesn't happen. I find that to be a very concerning issue." Viola discussed another form of Hollywood discrimination. "Only one black actress in history has been back [at the Oscars] more than once, and that's Whoopi Goldberg​,." What do you guys think? Is there discrimination in Hollywood films?
