    Girl. Love you. But Katie is a lier. It was producers that put her on pause and the cast had nothing to do with it. The awful things you said about Emily taking testosterone was horrible. She’s trying therapy to get better. And saying it’s her broad shoulders? Dang I want to stay a fan of yours but you can’t have it both ways.
