Quotes
“And they were going to appeal. And then a week later, Johnny’s two attorneys, uh, Camille and Ben, went on a couple of the talk shows also, and basically just discussing things. It was very professional, whatever.”
“She’s trying to kind of reach out to the public opinion and get people more on her side. Problem is, I don’t think it doesn’t matter how much PR she has because she speaks off the cuff at times. She rats herself out.”
“Yeah, exactly. That is the really baffling thing. It’s like, okay, even if you ignore her situation with Johnny, right. Just the fact that you guys are saying internally that there is no real chemistry between her and Jason, and they are supposed to be love interest.”
”It’s as bad as the situation with Amber is, and it is, uh, that is not anywhere near as bad as the thing with Ezra. Not just because there’s like, straight up unquestionable evidence that there’s like, weird stuff going on with them, but on top of that, just from like, I guess you could say, business perspective on their part, ezra is playing a very major character in the DC movies.” – Liz
