- Actor Kat Dennings revealed in a TikTok video that she successfully pushed back against an uncomfortable scene in her sitcom 2 Broke Girls , which required her and co-star Beth Behrs to run around an apartment set wearing only bras.
- Dennings recalled approaching showrunner Michael Patrick King after a season one or two table read to request that the scene be removed or altered so that the actors were fully clothed.
- When King initially refused to change the script, Dennings asserted herself by telling him that she was not paid enough for a bra scene, which resulted in the scene being cut entirely.
- Sharing the experience with her 1.5 million followers, Dennings highlighted the importance of self-advocacy in the workplace, concluding her story with the advice to never underestimate yourself.
- The actor, who starred in the CBS sitcom from 2011 to 2017, has previously spoken about facing harsh scrutiny as a child actor, including being told by casting directors at the age of 12 that she was fat and not pretty enough.
