Hollywood loves a good con artist story, but a man who excelled at imitating powerful women may have hit a little too close to home. Newser reports the FBI has just announced the arrest of a suspect believed to be the 'Con Queen of Hollywood.' Hargobind Tahilramani would impersonate prominent women in the industry and pitch bogus projects to actors and Hollywood gig workers. In turn, they would shell out cash on the promise of being reimbursed. For instance, Gregory Mandarano was duped into traveling to Indonesia multiple times in 2015, believing he was working with a rep from the legit China Film Group. Instead, he lost about $70,000 paying for drivers, translators, and 'fixers,' which was never reimbursed. Among others, Tahilramani posed as Kathleen Kennedy of Lucasfilm, former Paramount boss Sherry Lansing, and Rupert Murdoch's ex-wife, Wendi Deng.

Well not personally yet, but in terms of Box Office success she sure is. She is the number one female box office draw of all time and moving past Cameron Diaz strongly for that spot. Scarlett Johansson on the top ten box office list and the only woman on it right behind Johnny Depp and Michael Caine. She is not only hot, but for filmmakers and the audience she is all time hot.
Some of television's most powerful women opened up to Elle USA about the difference in working for TV or for film.
