Standing in front of a crowded group of journalists at a press conference on Thursday, actress Fran Drescher had clearly had enough. In a fiery speech that quickly went viral on social media, The Nanny star, who also heads Hollywood’s biggest union SAG-AFTRA, blasted Hollywood studios after talks between them and the actors’ union failed to avert a strike. “We are the victims here,” she said, her voice clearly laden with emotion. “We are being victimised by a very greedy entity. I am shocked by the way the people that we have been in business with are treating us.”
