    All celebs have media training - it's not some nefarious brainwashing thing lol. It's basically just going over what to avoid talking about in interviews, how to interact on social media, how to walk a red carpet, how to deal with paps, etc. If people are finding her or other celebs as "not media trained", then their teams needs to get a raise because that's pretty much the ultimate goal for a client - have them media trained, but have people go out of their way to compliment them on how they're not media trained lol. It's almost the same way people like to think Aubrey Plaza has no media training lmao. Her media training is to just stay weird/funny/awkward in interviews because that's her brand that sells, with notes on what topics to avoid and maybe what constitutes as "too far".

    Hollywood does have a creepy obsession with female youth. So this would be expected. What Id like to see is stories about women in their 40s-50s who aren’t moms. That would be different. Getting tired of the grooming process and teen obsession. It’s creepy. It’s why most men think we die off after 35. It’s the same in music. The best musicians are women in their 40s -50s, but everyone is obsessed is what teens and creepy dudes like.

    From this interview I can tell why Jenna was chosen to be Wednesday Addams. No better choice in my opinion. She’s relatable, has inner qualities and struggles that relates to Wednesday and to the audience. That’s why all The Addams Family films are classics, because even though they are all “out there characters”, “strange” and “mysterious”... there’s inner struggles that we all can relate to. Like wanting to put Piranhas in a pool... where your Brother’s worst enemy happens to be in. 👀😂 or being allergic to vivid colours. 🖤

    @@Valkonnen No no, I see the push for diversification - and in some areas, it's not a new thing. Children's TV and films have, for a long while now, tended to be more obviously diverse than media aimed at adults (I'm generalising) And I don't doubt that some productions are pressured into it. I see it when it's ham-fisted!! But to say that in this case, the only reason she was cast is because she's Mexican, I think ignores all the other qualities that make her such a good fit for the role. To be completely honest, I think it also ignores a lot of marketing forces which also make her a good choice from a business point of view. Does what you're describing happen? Yes, I have no doubt and see evidence of it. Is that the only explanation for Jenna Ortega being cast as Wednesday Addams? I do not think it is.

    Can’t believe she’s 20 years old! Seems like just last week she was a little baby on Disney Channel! Now on her first late night show. So happy for her. It feels like a proud mom moment! Lol

    First saw her in YOU and knew she would go places with her acting, and then comes Wednesday. What an excellent actor, she carries the entire series on her shoulders.
