Tatyana Ali Says Rose McGowan Stood Up to Her ‘Jawbreaker’ On-Set Bully ‘In Front of Everyone’: ‘I Will Always Love Her for That’
According to Tatyana Ali, Rose McGowan did not put up with any attitude on the set of “Jawbreaker.”
Ali took to Instagram on Saturday to reminisce about her time starring in the 1999 high school murder dramedy. She also shared a memory of costar McGowan telling off “one actress in particular” who was “bullying” her during filming.
“These are from ‘Jawbreaker’ (1999),” Ali wrote, sharing stills from the film. “I was the only one actually in high school when we shot this, and I dealt with a little bullying on set from one actress in particular. But one day, she tried it in front of everybody… and told her to in front of everybody! I will always love her for that!”
McGowan replied to the post that she’d “do it again,” adding that Ali has that “ combo” of “dignity, brains and beauty.”
“Jawbreaker,” directed by Darren Stein, starred McGowan, Ali, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, Charlotte Ayanna and Chad Christ. The film follows three teenage girls who accidentally murder their best friend in a birthday prank gone wrong. They are then blackmailed by the unpopular Fern, who uses their knowledge of the crime to become popular.
Released Feb. 19, 1999, the film went on to gross $3.1 million at the domestic box office.
Ali’s other notable credits include “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” its sequel series “Bel-Air,” “Glory Road” and “Abbot Elementary.”
McGowan’s other film credits include “The Doom Generation,” “Scream,” “Charmed,” “Black Dahlia,” “Planet Terror,” and “Grindhouse.”
