Patti LuPone expresses disappointment

There is no denying that the older an actor or actress gets, the more unfiltered they are on talk shows. LuPone was unapologetic when it comes to her thoughts about Kim Kardashian joining the cast of ‘American Horror Story’ Season 12. In the 73rd episode of 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen', the host of the show was joined by Patti LuPone and John Leguizamo. LuPone is an ‘American Horror Story’ veteran and when asked whether she cared about the casting, she simply responded with “Yes, I do.”

However, Cohen pressed a little further about the casting, which led to LuPone being more honest than ever. LuPone believes that the roles in ‘American Horror Story’ should be given to more established actors. After that, she addressed Kardashian directly and said, "Excuse me, excuse me, Kim, what are you doing with your life?” John Leguizamo agreed with LuPone and Cohen didn’t contest her thoughts either.

Fans agree with Patti LuPone

Kim will be joining the 12th season of ‘American Horror Story’, a horror series that has seen cast members like Evan Peters, Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts, Lily Rabe, Lady Gaga, and Kathy Bates over the years.

Undoubtedly, viewers have had mixed feelings about Kim Kardashian joining this talented roster, especially since her acting skills aren’t exactly Emmy-worthy. We all remember her acting in SNL, don't we?

Fans have taken over Twitter to respond to LuPone’s statement and most are in agreement with the Tony Award winner. One fan wrote,” I love Ms Lupone!! I agree, we do not need more Kardashians on our tv!” Another said, It's a fair question...one min she wants to be a lawyer, business woman and now this....it's not gonna get younger people to watch this show...to me this is a stunt and an insult to an actress of Pattie's caliber who studied acting 4 yrs.”



 



 

One particular commenter wrote about how this casting is directly related to Ryan Murphy, as they said, “Let’s be real, Ryan Murphy probably wanted her specifically.” The general consensus agrees with LuPone, and another fan wrote, “Why ruin a perfectly good series by putting this plastic Kardashian barbie in it!”



 



 

Some fans even took a humorous approach as one tweeted, “According to Ray J, The Kardashians show was sometimes full of lies and acting so Kim has the acting experience to pull this off.”

Very few disagreed with LuPone but there were a few in the mix. One person tweeted, “I don't care one way or another. If KK succeeds, then great. If she fails, then great. Is PL upset that she wasn't asked?”



 



 

The memes and disappointment have been unleashed, but it is only a matter of time before the viewers find out whether Kim was the right choice. Or was Patti LuPone right in being devasted about this casting?
