Jenna Ortega Started To Cry While Talking To Elle Fanning About Having People “Prey On” And “Twist” Her Vulnerability
Jenna Ortega has not been one to hide her truths, but sadly she can struggle with being open out of fear of being misunderstood.
Courtesy of NetflixFor example, in May, she said she acted “almost unprofessional” by changing her character’s lines in the series. Last year, Jenna also sparked a bit of an outcry for revealing she had COVID-19 while shooting the now iconic Wednesday dance.
It turns out that backlash to her honesty has impacted Jenna. So much so that, in a recent sit-down interview with Elle Fanning for Variety’s Actors on Actors series, she began to tear up while discussing the heightened attention she experienced after Wednesday became a hit.
Variety / Via youtube.comJenna told Elle that she’s “really, really” nervous to be herself online after the show’s success.
Variety / Via youtube.com“Because I tend to be sarcastic or dry, it’s very easy for me to find myself in trouble,” Jenna said.
The actor then explained that, when she first started having a platform, she told herself she’d be funny, honest, and herself.
Variety / Via youtube.com“I want people to be able to watch movies and also get to know the people behind the camera and feel like they’re attainable or realize that people should never be put on a pedestal,” she said.
However, Jenna felt like people have taken advantage of her honesty.
Variety / Via youtube.com“The more I’ve been exposed to the world in a sense, people prey on that and take advantage of that. And they see your vulnerability and twist it in a way that you don’t always expect. It’s so, so strange. Sorry, I didn’t mean to do this,” she said, while tearing up.
Elle, who was there to represent her Hulu series The Great, quickly comforted Jenna before the Wednesday star continued explaining her struggle to figure out how to be honest while in the public eye.
Variety / Via youtube.com“It’s such a hard thing to balance. Because how do you be honest without jeopardizing your own health and safety? It’s very easy to feel almost out of control of things,” she said. “Which is why it’s so important for people to get off the phone.”
Variety / Via youtube.comElle agreed, saying, “You just have to protect yourself, and also just know when to put it away and know it doesn’t matter. That’s not the real world.”
Variety / Via youtube.comThankfully, Jenna said she’s gotten better over the past few years about not being on her phone and reading comments.
Variety / Via youtube.com“I have this really, really intense urge to be human and honest and authentic,” she continued.
Elle ultimately thanked Jenna for her bravery in being vulnerable with her.
Variety / Via youtube.com“I hear you. It’s so beautiful that you are so open and honest about your feelings because I think not a lot of people are, and I think it’s so courageous for you to put that out there and say that,” she said. “I think it can also help so many people as well.”
