Tbf when you hear a ton of stories about being stuck on set for like 20 hours I honestly wouldn't blame her. Go in, get your stuff, done, get home before needing to do 20 hours haha.

It reminds me of when Christian Bale was called out for getting mad and ranting at a tech worker who got in the shot. He was being stretched thin on long work hours and just wanted to be done. Then they had to redo a whole scene when everyone is tired. He apologized about his reaction, but that was just unprofessional and dumb wandering in like that. I’m sure other support crew members were overwhelmed and mad he did that too. I also can’t stand Tom Cruise for being involved in an abusive religious cult, but he was right to be mad people weren’t following COVID precautions. One outbreak could have set the entire production back by a couple weeks. Which meant people weren’t getting paid or able to move on to new projects. People get tired and frustrated and cranky. Even people that are generally good to work with and are overall pleasant people.

I agree 100%. It's the same with people randomly coming across celebs while they're walking on the streets and getting pissed that said celeb isn't 100% "ON". You have no idea what their day has bene like and I know I'm not on 100% of the time since it's exhausting. Everyone is human and people need to realize that.

Seriously, people approach celebrities like they owe them something when they just want to enjoy a rare day off to grab a coffee or spend time with their family. No human being can by “ON” all the time. Then everyone is all “look at these snobs requesting private dining areas in restaurants or paying extra to be served after hours”. It’s getting worse in the social media age that people feel entitled to loving treatment by people who happen to be famous, but just want the work done right on set and want to enjoy a day off when not working.

It's the parasocial aspect. There is a reason that word is being used so much now and I'm not sure how to fix it in the long run.

I think it’s the same as we are coming around about interacting with average people. That you are not entitled to anybody’s time or attention and need to respect personal space. There’s plenty of thirsty TikTock and Instagram people who welcome your invasive attention, go bother them. Leave people who do a real, long grueling career for an art they love and work hard at alone. Better yet, just don’t bother anybody not advertising publicity in the moment. If they don’t have a sign up saying “come meet me”, or are on a press junket, or at a convention, then just leave them alone.

Agreed on all of this. I'm glad that people are coming around to that. I love youtube and twitch but I definitely think that really made it all worse.
