The star of the series “2 Broke Girls,” Kat Dennings, told People magazine that she was called “too fat” for her roles by casting directors when she was 12 years old.
In an interview with People magazine, actress Kat Dennings, 38, opened up about the beginning of her career when casting directors called her “too fat” for roles. At the time, Dennings was 12 years old.
The star of “2 Broke Girls” recalled that there wasn’t much inclusion when she was auditioning. “It was very harsh. I received a lot of extremely negative feedback, and people didn’t hold back,” she said.
“For example, I was 12 years old. I would go to an audition, do the test, and my agent would call me. I would ask, ‘How was it?’ And they would say, ‘Well, they thought you weren’t pretty enough and that you were fat,'” she remembered.
Despite the cruel comments, Dennings managed to make her TV debut in an episode of “Sex and the City” at 14.
However, her big break came in 2011 with the CBS series “2 Broke Girls,” where she played the role of Max Black. That same year, she portrayed Darcy Lewis in Marvel’s Thor films.
