Melissa McCarthy is the second highest-paid actress in the world

Look, I'm not saying she's overweight. I'm just saying that she's so morbidly obese that she covers more of the planet than the atmosphere.

Do you know her personally Ed? Is that why you get upset when people make fun of her? Good for her, I don't care how much money she makes.

And your point?


Honestly do you think this is a contest. That jabs and remarks and insults will out win someone's earnings or not. Or that how much they get paid relates to some sort of reverence and respect. Trump makes millions and I don't respect that assholic snake oil salesman.


We say things because we want to say them, and that we can. Despite her earnings, she is an overplayed actress with a tiring act. Honestly, how many times do you see the same fat woman falling down before you start feeling sorry for her or pitying her. What she earns does not matter.

I doubt she would be as successful if she were average size.

She should cash in quick because I think her appeal will be short lived. She will still get work à la Rosie O'Donuts and Rosanne Barr. But, being the featured lead in films will soon end. Just like John Candy before her, she is better in a supporting role than in the lead.

It's interesting, that SJW's and White Knights always use "She has a lot of money" for an argument to shut down criticism.
Here's a news flash for you: Money isn't an argument.
If it were, we have to consider Justin Bieber the great musician of all time. If money was an argument, we'd have to consider McDonald's to be the greatest 5 Star Restaurant with the most exquisite food on the planet. We'd have to consider Michael Bay as the greatest director of all time.

And that she's the second highest paid actress in the world only proofs one thing: She has a ton of connections, a ton of people she can rely on to not only give her work but overpay her. Like with Ghostbusters 2016, she got 10 million dollars for it. One reason why the budget was so extreme and why it is a financial failure. Think about that for a moment.

So she's got money. Big deal. I have money and probably more than you do which means according to your thinking I win.

Do you see how weak that kind of thinking is? Money is not a measure of success or how good a person you are. What it is is a way of compensating you for the work you've done based on your ability and the profitability of the company in question.

She might have made $14 million for this movie but I can almost guarantee you she won't make that kind of money again.

She must spend at least 99.8% of her earnings on pork so I doubt she is that rich.

she could care less what you say
