Constance Wu has opened up about how the backlash to her Fresh Off the Boat renewal-related 'Twitter fiasco' changed her perception of her fame
Photo: Andrew Toth/Getty Images Earlier this summer, Constance Wu learned that being a public figure often means keeping some things off of Twitter. The Hustlers star recently opened up to the Los Angeles Times about how the backlash from her “Twitter fiasco” back in May changed her perception of her fame. Wu’s heated tweets were in response to the news that her ABC show, Fresh Off the Boat, had been renewed for a sixth season, preventing her from working on a play.
Instead of focusing on her, Wu wants to change “the system” and get more Asian-American leads on screen. If the fiasco did one good thing, now the world knows that she’s flawed. “There is an expectation of the way that I ought to behave, and not just of perfection but of graciousness,” Wu continued. “And I am grateful. But am I elegant? No.”
