I love Hollywood. They never cease to amaze me.

According to BoundingIntoComics:

Sarah Paulson, known for her roles in the critically praised American Horror Story, has recently faced some backlash by the cancel culture mob. The reason? She’s allegedly worn a fat suit for an upcoming episode of American Crime Story.

The cancel culture mob decided to target the actor after she was seen wearing what seemingly looks like a fat suit in a couple of behind the scenes photos for American Crime Story, reports Yahoo!Life.

During the first season of FX’s true crime anthology series, titled The People v. O.J. Simpson: America Crime Story, Paulson played prosecutor Marcia Clark, and this season the actor will be playing a different character altogether.

For this new season of American Crime Story, subtitled Impeachment, Sarah Paulson will be stepping into the role of former White House employee Linda Tripp during the impeachment trial of former President of the United States Bill Clinton.

The photos of Paulson as Linda Tripp were first shared by Film Update’s Twitter account, opening the door for the cancel culture mob to express their dissatisfaction with the casting decision — who believe casting a fat person instead would’ve been ideal.
