After the rankings of the highest paid DJ's in the world was revealed, it came down that DJ Calvin Harris is worth more than Hollywood actress Jennifer Lawrence. This is despite being the highest paid actress in Hollywood. Harris who is currently dating Taylor Swift has $66 million of fortune, while Lawrence makes $52 million.

In an article by Daily Mail, it is impossible to ignore how the actress compared to their male counterparts in terms of earnings. Women in the industry have to thank the Sony hack that revealed salaries of nearly every actor who worked with the company. After the revelation, women are pushing for more.

One of the biggest reveals in the hack was that Jennifer Lawrence was paid considerably less than her male co-actors in the movie "American Hustle" despite being dubbed as the biggest name attached in the movie.

But although the comparison, Harris did work hard for his success. As early as when he was 18, the DJ moved to London with hopes to pursue his dreams and break into the music industry. But it became challenging for Calvin and he then moved back to Scotland and worked in grocery stores and fish factories while waiting for his big break in music. He was soon discovered in 2007 after he posted his music on MySpace.

And with the rise of dance music and EDM, Harris also rose to fame.

Calvin is dating another big name in the industry that is Taylor Swift. In a recent Twitter brawl, Calvin defended his lady love from an "attack" by former One Direction member Zayn Malik, reported Billboard.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence gained another fan in Director Quentin Tarantino. Perez Hilton reported that Tarantino admitted that he is a big fan of the actress and even said that she could end up like "Bette Davis."

"I'm a very big fan of hers. I think she could end up being another little Bette Davis if she keeps on going the way she's going," Tarantino said.
