She’s literally an angel. Went to StrangerCon Chicago and got to meet her. We actually flew on the same plane out of Atlanta, but I didn’t want to bother her at the gate. I told her about it at my signing and she was totally so sweet and said something a long the lines of “Oh you totally could have come up, I love talking to you guys.” She’s insanely sweet and deserves all the success. 💕💕

You're so lucky!!! She seems amazing!
The fact that she kept working at the cinema shows how humble and down-to-earth the remained. It seems natural but you hear actors say "and i quit that horrible job immediately after i was picked for the role" all the time. She's so cool.

Simon Kendra let’s be honest, other actors had WAY bigger roles than Shannon who had such a minor character. Yes she was good, but it was small. Other actors who might’ve gotten a bigger role would quit their job because I mean sometimes they just had enough. Other times, you just never know the situation.

Wait... She WAS!?? As a kid I didn't have anyone else to share that very strange fascination/fan obsession with. So weird... And, I guess, yeah, Barb is like a reboot of the Stephanie character... Hmm... It all makes sense now... But, seriously, I had no idea until now that anyone else was oddly intrigued by "The Stef" besides me.

I think everyone loved Barb so much because she was a voice of reason. She genuinely wanted to be supportive and wanted the best for her friend, and she paid the price for it.
She's such a good conversationalist, wow. I wish I was that confident.
Shannon is so sweet and an incredible actress. Loved her as barb and in Riverdale and in this film. she is a super star and the best part is she's so down to earth and relatable ugh what's not to like?
She is such a lovely person!!
