'This is my greatest insecurity and someone just called it out,' says Kaling of the incident which occurred in her mid-20s (via toofab)
The actress has been open over the years with her struggle to try and fit the expectations for a young woman in the entertainment industry. At that time in her career, she said she was even up and working out every day before work. And yet, this was still the joke this person came up with.
"I had a reckoning where I'm like, 'People are scrutinizing [me], and not only are they scrutinizing [me], they're verbalizing their displeasure with how I look because I don't look a certain way," she told"GMA.""That kind of dissonance has really affected so much of what I write about [and] the kind of characters I play."
In the years since, Kaling created her own niche, since she didn't really see a place for her in the Hollywood machine."On TV, if you were really thin, then you could be the lead," she said."Otherwise, you had to be like 250 pounds, and you had to be the slapstick comic relief. But what was crazy, what was left out, is just like this range of people which is a majority of American women over the age of 24.
