This comes after Fox’s response to Taraji P. Henson’s comments on unfair pay scales in Hollywood.
In a conversation with TMZ, Fox had claimed she hadn’t experienced any of the problems that brought Henson to tears during an interview with Gayle King.
Union liked a post remarking, “She hasn’t experienced Taraji’s successes either. Next.”
Earlier reports show that Henson broke down as she spoke about plans to retire from acting, during an interview with King.
