Meghan Markle Faces Backlash in Hollywood as Former Castmates Criticize Her Actions
Meghan Markle, the former Duchess of Sussex, appears to be oblivious to the fact that her foreign royal title holds little weight in Hollywood.
In a recent episode of her Spotify podcast, Weekly Archetypes, she took aim at several heavyweights, including renowned filmmaker Quentin Tarantino.
Her disparaging remarks about the popular game show Deal or No Deal also drew criticism from her former castmates.
While Meghan may believe she has a secure foothold in Hollywood due to her previous role on the cable TV show Suits, she fails to recognize that her newfound fame is largely attributed to her marriage to Prince Harry.
Before tying the knot with the British royal, she could freely express herself without attracting much media attention, as no one really cared.
However, Meghan's knowledge of the Hollywood scene seems limited to the minor leagues, as she lacks the ability to navigate the industry's major players.
Despite receiving backlash for her comments about Austin Powers and Kill Bill, Meghan continued to stir controversy.
Actor Mike Myers, who starred in the Austin Powers series, expressed his deep respect for Queen Elizabeth II and expressed sadness over her passing.
Furthermore, Meghan's criticism of Kill Bill, a film featuring an Asian woman leading the Yakuza, did not sit well with its director, Quentin Tarantino.
Insulting the work of such influential figures in Hollywood has resulted in closed doors and severed connections for Meghan.
Tarantino collaborates with some of the industry's biggest names, including Lucy Liu, who has openly discussed her role in Kill Bill.
Meghan's assumption that she could effortlessly join their ranks and gain their attention has proven to be misguided.
The same applies to her hopes of working with Mike Myers in his comedic ventures.
It seems highly unlikely that Meghan will have any involvement in his projects.
Unfortunately for Meghan, most of her proposed projects have failed to receive the green light for production.
Rumors suggest that many of her and Prince Harry's pitches were rejected due to being perceived as vanity projects.
Additionally, plans for a reality show docuseries chronicling the Sussexes' love story, set to coincide with the fifth season of The Crown, may no longer hold any relevance.
Both Meghan and Harry seem to lack a comprehensive understanding of the inner workings of the entertainment industry.
In a surprising turn of events, it has been reported that Deal or No Deal, the game show Meghan once participated in, is set to make a comeback after eight years off the air.
The UK version of the show, which did not feature briefcase girls like Meghan, involved contestants selecting one of 22 boxes in the hopes of winning a substantial cash prize.
Former briefcase girls from the show have united to share their positive experiences while calling out Meghan for her lack of honesty.
Tamika Jacobs, one of the former models, remarked that if the producers were searching for women's rights activists, Meghan would have been chosen.
She acknowledged Meghan's beauty but asserted that physical appearance was a significant factor in her selection.
Jacobs emphasized that she and her colleagues were respected for their intelligence and did not feel demeaned.
She dismissed Meghan's claims, stating that it was merely a game show and not an accurate reflection of their worth.
Jacobs, who has worked as a photographer for over 15 years, also revealed that Meghan did not socialize with the other models during her time on the show.
Despite serving as one of two stand-ins alongside Teagan, Meghan kept to herself and seemed focused on pursuing better and more significant opportunities.
While the other models shared camaraderie, Meghan appeared detached from the group, always striving for something greater.
