One day I hope Maïwenn gets the therapy she needs and stops covering for insecure, petty, abusive men.

So the PR line they've given her to spin is that she says "afraid of" when she means "impressed by" and that big bad journalist is terrible for taking her at her verbatim words.

I know she's not a native English speaker, but did that not strike them as maybe straining credulity just a wee bit?

she literally said: "all the crew were scared because he has a different kind of humor and we didn’t know if he was going to be on time, or if he was going to be ok to say his lines"

~different kind of humor implies rude/weirdo, and not being on time and not okay to say his lines implies loser

"all the crew were starstruck because he has a different kind of humor and we didn’t know if he was going to be on time, or if he was going to be ok to say his lines"
yeah does not work. D*pps lawyers so clearly have a gun to her head

Uh, was her uncertainty that he would show up on time or be able to say his lines also “impressive”?

I too am impressed by how often my coworkers are not on time or able to do their job. Must be because they're so impressive

Phew I have been SO IMPRESSED with my coworkers lately for being late and calling out of work so often. It impresses me how it makes work harder on the rest of us.
