While Pugh was having fun living the dream, the show’s executives asked her to change her appearance as part of the requirements. This request made her feel self-conscious about her body because it wasn’t “what she wanted to do.”
She said, “All the things they tried to change about me, whether it was my weight, my looks, the shape of my face, the shape of my eyebrows. Pugh also recalled that it made him second-guess his career path because he wasn’t sure he “wanted to work” as an actor anymore.
