Description

In a recent actor-on-actor interview with Halle Bailey for Variety, Rachel Zegler spoke about her role as Snow White, how much she respected the character and the backlash she's faced. Quite the difference from her attitude a few months ago. Almost like this whole thing was desperate damage control from Disney. Critical Drinker Merch Store: https://drinkershop.com/

Ever met a narcissist who admitted they were wrong? No, neither have I. So deflection it is.

Not only was Zegler coached and told what to say, notice how the makeup she's wearing has softened her features a bit more, to say nothing of lightening her skin tone a lot, and her hair is much darker, longer, more feminine. Combined with the dark dress, it emphasizes her lighter skin tone even more. It's as if Disney is trying to go, "See, she looks just like Snow White. Those bigots are just crazy."

Henry Cavill is an example of someone who, even when he's in something that disrespects the source material, earns the love and loyalty of the fans through his own love and respect for the material and its fans.

Gal Gadot’s greatest acting performance is keeping that million dollar smile with zero flinch while seeing Zegler completely sabotaging her movie

Put simply, the best acting Rachel has done in her career is on this current “apology” tour. An adult pretender at their finest.

She hasn't lost a single atom of narcissism. In her interview she is as genuine and believable as her pony tail.

Bailey had the smartest possible response to the controversy she found herself in: say nothing and do your job.

"It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." - Mark Twain Zegler is a prime example.
