Could not agree more. Once again
@JakesTakes
nails it. Imagine getting 5 mins with Zendaya and asking her about kissing her co-stars just for clicks. The fans hate it, she clearly doesn’t feel comfortable about it, so just stop.
“It is a part of my job!”
My takeaway from my interview with Zendaya:
Stop asking her about kissing her co-stars!

Chandler Bing was the character I resonated the most with whilst growing up. I’m not sure anyone will ever match his gift for delivering his lines with the perfect amount of sarcasm and then flooring us with complete sincerity. I hope he’s finally at peace. RIP Matthew Perry ❤️
