[MUSIC] Victoria Leeds, the new owner of the Hunky Club. Drugs, murder, all these started once Leeds took over. It is always more fun to play the bad guy and I definitely enjoyed myself. I could think of any idea. The director would be like, yeah, we can do that especially because you're a bad guy in a comedy So it's just as random as it gets. [BLANK_AUDIO]

BeautyCon might not be the first place you’d expect to hear a debate about international politics, but we’re living in a special time.

Priyanka Chopra got into a heated conversation after being confronted by an audience member who called her a hypocrite during an interview in Los Angeles over the weekend. The actress was taking questions about beauty standards at a BeautyCon discussion on Saturday when attendee Ayesha Malik went to the microphone to call Chopra out for "encouraging nuclear war against Pakistan" while also serving as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador.

"Jai Hind" is a slogan that translates to "Hail India," and is often used in speeches by Indian political leaders.

"You are a UNICEF ambassador for peace and you're encouraging nuclear war against Pakistan," Malik continued. "There's no winner in this. As a Pakistani, millions of people like me have supported you in your business of Bollywood and you wanted nuclear war."

"Whenever you're done venting ... got it, done? Okay, cool," she said. "I have many many friends from Pakistan, and I am from India. War is not something that I’m really fond of, but I am patriotic, so...I'm sorry if I've hurt sentiments, to people who do love me, and have loved me. But I think all of us have a sort of middle ground that we all have to walk, just like you probably do as well."

"The way you came at me right now?" Chopra continued. "Girl, don't yell. We're all here for love. Don't yell. Don't embarrass yourself. But we all walk that middle ground, but thank you for your enthusiasm and your question and your voice."
