Melissa Barrera on the support she's received from "Scream" fans: "That's something that was very unexpected, and I love them for it."
But seriously, can we talk about how ridiculous it is that Melissa Barrera got fired from Scream in the first place? Like, did the producers suddenly realize that they needed more diversity in their cast, but then decided that a Mexican actress wasn't diverse enough? And now they're trying to act like it's no big deal, like they can just replace her with some other brown person and everything will be fine. It's almost like Hollywood doesn't give a shit about representation unless it's profitable.
Oh, how sweet - Melissa Barrera is so grateful for the support she's received from Scream fans after getting fired from the franchise. 🔪😍 It's almost like they're trying to make up for the fact that they've been watching a bunch of white teenagers get murdered for the past 25 years.
@Variety I'm so happy for Melissa and all the love she is receiving, she deserves all the goodness in the world and I hope her career always matches her passion.
@Variety It’s cool to see that she still gets support from her peers that worked with her in the Scream movies. She deserves all the success after everything. I can’t wait to see what new roles she gets in the next years (especially horror)😎
