Pharrell Williams speaks about equality

Pharrell Williams is amazed of how much inequality women still face, nowadays.

The 'Happy' singer appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote his current album G I R L and explained why he can't figure out why female employees are still paid less than their male equivalents.

He's married to model Helen Lasichanh. In his opinion, women deserve more respect for their role in society.

"There is a lot of inequality with women and you know how that goes. Everything from, you know... still do this day, what is it, 73 cents to a man's dollar? Like, what is that? The last I heard, this whole entire species can only come into existence through the portal in a woman"s body", Pharrell spoke out.

"We're a species that has had a space station floating around earth for over 20 years - we even have a rover on a surface of Mars - how can we be the same species that has legislators and legislations in place that are telling women what they can and can"t do with their bodies. How is that possible?"

Pharrell believes equality should be available for "everybody" regardless of their sexuality or beliefs. This is close to a discrimination. Previously, he revealed that he believes in the motto of "live and let live", plus he supports homosexual marriage, as he said on Ellen's show.

"And when I say equality - you may be surprised - I mean equality for everybody. Like, who are you telling who they can marry and who they can't. What is this? This is 2014", he said.
