    “Look man, this role is just a side gig for me. I’m just gonna lay here, and pretend to be dead. I get to have a few minutes of peace, doing absolutely nothing for 3 minutes, and make more money than the average American makes in 3 years. I don’t want a speaking part. That would be like…work. I just want to rest, and you guys get to advertise that Kate Moss was on your show.”

    This is the vibe I get from celebrities most of the time. She, as an actress, turned down a cameo role, because she, as an actress would have had to act. And that’s too much.

    Meanwhile I’ve worked in factories for $9 an hour, in 130F heat. Fucking hell.

      Seems odd to complain about someone making easy money while arguing that your own job shouldn’t be so hard. It’s like how people complain about low wages and people living in poverty but the moment that person in poverty starts earning a higher wage, they’re suddenly cast out and deemed “part of the problem” since they’re not living in poverty anymore.
