While the Wildcats frequently felt like they were “all in this together,” Monique Coleman really did not constantly concur.
The celebrity, that played the wise head of state of East High’s scientific research club Taylor McKessie in the Disney Channel franchise business, just recently signed up with other Disney cd Christy Carlson Romano on the latter’s latest episode of her Vulnerable podcast. “Disney really broke my heart because when I got to the third movie, in so many ways, I really championed the film,” she clarified. “I really always spoke so positively, and I was a black girl playing the smartest girl in school which was a very big deal at that time. And when it came to promoting the third movie, I wasn’t invited on the tour.”
She included that “they said something about there not being enough room on the plane,” as well as wound up just bringing along her costars Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale as well asCorbin Bleu Lucas Grabeel, that plays Ryan Evans in the trilogy, was likewise not welcomed.
“That heartbreak really hit me very deeply and did cause a bit of a depression because it helped me to recognize that I was overly identifying with what I was doing and not who I was,” she included. “And that was what led me to take that step and say, ‘Maybe this is my five minutes of fame. Maybe this is it in some way. And if that is the case, then what am I going to do with it.’”
