This election has just proven how dumb these movie stars really are.

They weren't comments about Donald Trump, they were comments about the voters who voted for him. Not great to send an f-u to your potential ticket buyers

If snow white doesnt need a prince; we dont need a snow white

Ziegler apologized while complaining that she inappropriately reacted to hate from America. So she did it again. While apologizing. She called Americans hateful.

Just cancel the movie. No ones gonna watch anyways

[joshlock]

Too little, too late !!!!

RIP Disney

[franzkern]

Cancel her immediately. Throw her out of the bus.

It’s funny how they are always sorry once they realise their pay cheques might dry up 😒😒

[psalmo]

No need to watch these shows. Bad for kids.

If Disney isn't trying to be woke then they need to consider who they cast, lol. And this isn't about how she looks or her being Colombian America. I love Colombian women, married to one.. It is 100 percent about her attitude and what she said!

She should be fired. They fired Johnny Depo and he didn’t even do anything!

[SeedYZY]

They shouldve fired her a long time ago sheesh

It's not enough. Read this.


Rachel doesn't realize the gravity of the role, and is downright the opposite of it. Also, she needs to learn the difference between cartoons and America's first fully animated feature. The original Snow White helped keep Dina Babbitt going during the holocaust, and it saved her life. She painted a mural to cheer up the children. That joy was the last joy they had before being murdered. That Snow White mural saved herself and her mother. She got a job painting portraits of people for the historic man now referred to as "The Angel of Death." She took her time on the portraits to keep the victims alive longer. Her portraits are still at the holocaust museum-despite the fact that it was her dying wish to have them back. Everyone says that Walt Disney was anti-Semitic, but the Jewish Joe Grant (the designer of the queen and the hag-more widely known for pushing for Crikee to be in Mulan) nipped that in the bud. Snow White was loving and kind; Rachel is a monstrous cyber bully. Snow White won honorary Oscars. It was the very beginning of animation being seen as an art. And every time this little actress calls it a cartoon, she is undermining that. Snow White earned her keep. This Snow White doesn't clean. This Snow White had better be working in the mines!

she correct though...snow white CAN exist on her own...WITHOUT RACHEL ZEGLER!!!

[trustme]

She's not sincere about it. Someone called her up and told her hey you better apologize or we yanking you

[jasonarthur]

Pro tip: Regardless of who you are, don’t wish bad on your enemies. If anything, you should pray for them. If God is able to put them on the right path then the whole country wins.

Boycott Disney. They have nothing but contempt for America. #nomouse

[miriamm]

A solution to this problem : just rename this version of Snow White to Brown snow, you know, like Yellow snow.

[larryc]

She demonized the original snow white, now she demonized the majority of the country.... Her career's future looks dark, yet another Disney movie flop.

Trump: Rachel, you're fired! Go home
