'Sopranos' Stars Want Some C-Notes?

Maybe they should try burning their bras. Throwing their weight behind the feminist struggle for equal pay (well, that's our take), Edie Falco and Lorraine Bracco -- the other-sex factors in the hit HBO mobster series "The Sopranos" -- reportedly are hitting up the cable network with salary renegotiation demands, just in time for production of the new season. (Cameras start rolling in August.)

The Hollywood Reporter says that the two actresses are seeking deals similar to the six-figure raise their fellow co-star -- James Gandolfini, a male -- inked last year.

On the show, Falco plays Gandolfini's wife; Bracco plays his psychiatrist.

We called HBO for comment, but they were gone for the Fourth of July holiday.
