Nick Mohammed exploded onto the global stage as Nathan "Nate the Great" Shelley in the Apple TV+ comedy "Ted Lasso." He picked up an Emmy Award nomination and celebrated multiple Emmy Award wins with his cast mates. Now in its third season, Nate's "Ted Lasso" storyline brilliantly encompasses reasons to both celebrate him and wish for his demise — with the poisonous side of social media being one of the reasons.
"I try and stay off Twitter when the show is out because otherwise there's too much of an element of art imitating life because people are really hating on Nate at the moment and rightly so," Mohammed explained to me on "Salon Talks" about his real-life social media habits. "If I start to scroll on Twitter, I'm like, I know that's what Nate does in Season 2, so I should stop."
