Yesterday, Priyanka Chopra attended the Forbes Women's Summit in New York. The Quantico actor stepped out in a grey metallic outfit by Ralph Lauren from his Pre-Fall 2018 collection. PeeCee shared the stage with Indra Nooyi, CEO, PepsiCo. She shared advice from late father, Ashok Chopra.
"My dad always told me, 'You don't want to fit into a glass slipper that someone else made for you. Go shatter that glass ceiling'." She also spoke about facing stereotypes at work. "I was not cast in projects because I came from an industry which was different." But she said she wasn't afraid to walk into a room and introduce herself. "I'm an actor, but I'm also someone who's not defined by my ethnicity or where I come from."
