Priyanka Chopra is on her way to global domination and nailing it at every step. She has joined international celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey and Meryl Streep in USA Today’s list of 50 most powerful women in entertainment.

The list honours women who have redefined the world’s entertainment industry and changed the game in their respective lines of work.

Priyanka features in the list alongside other power players such as three-time Academy Award winner Meryl Streep, media mogul Oprah Winfrey, singers Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Laga Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, TV personality Ellen DeGeneres, Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence, and actors Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon Margot Robbie and Tina Fey.

Talking about the recognition, Priyanka said, “For me, power is simply an energy that empowers me to do what I love. It’s the ability to open doors and turn my dreams into a reality of what I was destined to do. I feel privileged to share this platform with these amazing women who have each pushed through their own challenges and created their own realities and today stand shoulders above everyone in their chosen careers. It does give one a feeling of achievement,” Indian media reported.

Priyanka was also listed in the ‘Forbes 100 most influential list’ in 2018 as well as ‘Variety's 500 Most Influential’ list that came earlier in December.
