'Sex Lives of College Girls' star Reneé Rapp feared homophobia, 'slut-shaming'

"The Sex Lives of College Girls" star Reneé Rapp has opened up about the anxiety she experienced when the first season of the hit series debuted on HBO Max.

The 22-year-old actor revealed Tuesday in an interview with People magazine that she was "really afraid for the show to come out" in 2021 because she "felt very judged" at the time.

In the young-adult dramedy, Rapp plays Leighton Murray, a posh member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority at the fictional Essex College who begins to openly date women for the first time in Season 2 after coming out as gay to her roommates.
