Michelle Williams, the latest face of Hollywood unequal pay, has congratulated Mark Wahlberg for donating his $1.5 million fee for the re-shoot of All the Money in the World to the Time’s Up campaign in her name. She got 1% of his fee. Though what’s odd about that story is they have the same agent and often disparities are down to some actors having Rottweiler agents, while others don’t. The agent gets a cut so it’s to their benefit to bump fees up to maximum. Though clearly female actresses have always been undervalued.
Born 9 September 1980 3.07am Kalispell, Montana, she says she was self-sufficient and secretive as a child, which suggests she didn’t ask for much back then. She’s had a sterling career with multiple awards for screen and stage work; and was married to Heath Ledger with whom she had a child.
She has a New Moon Jupiter in Virgo sextile Uranus and square Neptune in her performing 5th house. She’s also got Saturn Mercury in Virgo also square Neptune. All that Virgo will make her self-effacing putting the work before glory and her heavily aspected Neptune also wouldn’t make her a tough negotiator. Plus she has Pluto, Mars and Uranus in her 4th house, so her childhood would be scary and her father especially wouldn’t take kindly to confrontation or demands.
Mark Wahlberg, 5 June 1971 7.15am Boston, Massachusetts, on the other hand, has a financial 8th house Mars in Aquarius trine his Gemini Sun trine Uranus; and Venus, Mercury, Saturn in Taurus trine Pluto and opposition Jupiter in Scorpio – so he will be more money-minded.
She looks to be having a rather undermining time ahead with tr Neptune opposing her Sun and Moon from mid 2018 for eighteen months, and then moving on to oppose her Jupiter.
Thank you for looking into this Marjorie. It’s too bad her ambitious Mars in Scorpio was located where it would scare her, rather than help her be more vocal about what she wants.
On the other hand I have noticed Mars in Aquarius people being much more upfront and relentless (and angrier)in getting what they want, than those with Mars in Scorpio.
That close Saturn Mercury conjunction would not have let her speak her mind easily in any case I am guessing? made even worst by that Neptune square.
Maybe it is good that the universe has placed Mark Wahlberg near her, so she can take notes on how someone who knows his worth finds it easy to demand what they believe they deserve (and probably do)for the work they put it.
Sigh, if only she realises, passivity will not help lessen the gender pay gap any time soon, and that is a very important cause to take up to…
