Rachel Zegler's Candid Broadway Comment After Tony Snub and Snow White Criticism
RAH-RAH FOR RAHAL! Zegler Fires Back at Broadway Snub with Sassy Comment
The drama, darling! Rachel Zegler is speaking her mind about the Tony Awards snub that left her in the dust. The Snow White star, 24, took to social media to share a sizzling hot message for her fellow Broadway stars, and let's just say she's not holding back.
As the Scholary Note reports, Rachel was noticeably absent from the Best Actress nominations this year, with Sadie Sink, Sarah Snook, LaTanya Richardson Jackson, Laura Donnelly, and Mia Farrow taking home the coveted nod instead. Ouch! But did we mention Zegler's got a whole lot of sass to go around?
In her Instagram post, Rachel wrote: "I have the most respect for the people being honored tonight – doing anything, especially a 2-3 hour marathon such as a Broadway musical or play... It is not for the faint of heart. We are athletes in our own right and tonight is truly a celebration of all the hard work – both on stage and off – that goes on in these iconic spaces."
But here's the juicy part: Rachel didn't just stop at a simple congratulations message. Oh no, she had to go and throw some major shade! "I love my job so d*mn much," she exclaimed, implying that maybe, just maybe, her own Broadway debut wasn't as snub-worthy as we thought.
Now, we know what you're thinking: why is Rachel Zegler still making headlines? Well, let's get into it. The Snow White star has been in the news for all the wrong reasons lately. From her box office flop to her very public feud with Disney over her casting choices (hello, controversy!), it's safe to say Zegler's career hasn't exactly been flying high.
But don't worry, folks! Rachel is still booking and busy – and we're not just talking about her upcoming roles. No, no! The star has already landed a new movie deal with none other than Marisa Tomei (yes, that My Cousin Vinny legend!) in the comedy-drama She Gets It From Me.
According to Variety, Rachel will play the role of Nicky, whose engagement celebration turns into a wild goose chase for her pill-popping, ex-punk rocker birth mother Charlotte (played by Tomei). Think: an anarchic mother-daughter duo on the run – and we can't wait!
But let's get back to those Tony Awards. Rachel's snub was just one of many, with critics panning her performance in Romeo and Juliet alongside Kit Connor. But hey, at least she's got a sassy comment to show for it!
So what do you think, Scholary Note readers? Are you Team Zegler or do you think she needs to take a seat (pun intended)? Let us know in the comments below!
