Patricia Arquette devotes Oscar acceptance speech to equality for women

Written By Unknown on Senin, 23 Februari 2015 | 22.19

Patricia Arquette took home the Academy Award for her performance in Boyhood Sunday night and devoted her acceptance speech to winning equality for women. 

"To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation, we have fought for everybody else's equal rights," Arquette said. "It's our time to have wage equality once and for all, and equal rights for women in the United States of America."

The internet, predictably, went wild — particularly about the passionate reactions from Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lopez.

Last year it was the selfie. This year, it's this RT @RosieGray: —> RT @SpencerAlthouse: Meryl Streep approves. https://t.co/hvBI8AWVDY

Also, Meryl Streep's fist pumping in reaction to Patricia Arquette's speech? #perfect #Oscars2015

And so Meryl Streep sits and listens, probably unaware that she is now a permanent worldwide GIF.

Jennifer Lopez and Meryl Streep whooping together in support of Patricia Arquette's feminist speech will play forever on a loop in my heart

Arquette's call for fairness came during an Oscars that has been widely criticized for featuring a slate of acting nominees composed entirely of white people. 

Host Neil Patrick Harris devoted his first joke of the night to the issue: "Tonight we honour Hollywood's best and whitest, I mean brightest."
