“I said no, I stood up for myself.”
"I've always been a hard worker, on time, doing what I'm supposed to do," Jennifer said. "I felt crippled to voice my opinion, especially because certain directors and the boys' club that they form can make you feel like, 'Oh, I can't say anything.' I was always fascinated by how I could see [a man] being late or being belligerent to a crew and it being totally acceptable; meanwhile, I'd show up 15 minutes late and be berated.
She continued: "Like, we're not allowed to have certain opinions or even be passionate about something, or they'll be like, 'God, she's really difficult,'" she said. "It's like, 'Am I? Am I difficult because I care?'"Read MoreWhen she shut down a director who asked her to take her top off during a costume fitting
The actress admitted that a "little bit of the Bronx came out" when she defiantly stood her ground and said no when a director told her to take her top off. Speaking in light of the #MeToo movement in 2019, Jennifer recalled the truly disgusting moment, telling"I said no, I stood up for myself. But it was so funny because I remember being so panicked in the moment. Luckily a little bit of the Bronx came out, and I was like, 'I don't have to show you my... No. On the set, you see them.'"to say something because a female costume designer was in the room with her.
She recalled that the minute the director walked out, the costume designer told her: "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry that just happened.'"When Jennifer doesn't like being called something that is degrading to women, she will call it out - and rightly so!
