Constance Wu

The actor was attacked on social media when she expressed frustration with the renewal of her sitcom Fresh Off the Boat.

Constance described how the situation “made me reassess a lot in my life,” including getting off social media and pausing her career to prioritise her mental health. “And we need to stop beating each other (and ourselves) up when we do.” “Looking back, it’s surreal that a few DMs convinced me to end my own life, but that’s what happened,” she continued. In May 2019, Constance, then starring on ABC’s groundbreaking sitcom “Fresh Off the Boat,” posted several tweets expressing frustration with the network renewing the show for what became its final season. On Thursday, she went on to detail that among the “severe” social media comments she received in response to her tweets were messages “from a fellow Asian actress,” who told Constance “I’d become a blight on the Asian American community.” After intense uproar on social media, Constance later explained her frustration was because the show’s renewal meant she “had to give up another project that I was really passionate about,” she wrote on Twitter. “So my dismayed social media replies were more about that other project and not about FOTB.”
