After the premiere of the last season of Stranger Things, many fans of the renowned series fell in love with the character of Chrissy, played by Grace Van Dien. Together with Joseph Quinn, the actress managed to steal the spotlight from the main actors, as the relationship between the characters of Eddie and Chrissy captivated the public and broke thousands of hearts. The truth is that many of the fans of fiction were surprised when they learned that Grace is actually a well-known streamer on Twitch. Precisely, in one of her live broadcasts, the 26-year-old has announced that she will abandon acting and focus on her Twitch channel.
Known as BlueFille on networks, the young woman often played Valorant and Fortnite live. After her performance in the series, she got her popularity on the platform to triple and she currently has almost 300,000 followers. On the other hand, her brief appearance in the series was the perfect cover letter to perhaps conquer Hollywood. However, the young woman has decided to put her career on hold due to an incident that took place in one of her last recordings, when a man asked her to sleep with him and her partner.
In one of her last live shows, the actress has revealed the hardship she went through, although she did not want to go into details about the identity of her stalker. "In one of the last movies I did, one of the producers asked me to... He hired a girl he was sleeping with and then he asked me to do a threesome with them," she began, visibly annoyed.
"So that was my boss. And I didn't, I cried and got really upset. So when people ask me how streaming is better for my mental health, here's why. I get to stay home and play to video games, and my boss doesn't ask me to sleep with him. That's why it's better," she explained last Tuesday on Twitch, revealing the reasons why she feels more comfortable broadcasting on that platform than in a movie studio. .
The interpreter assures that she believes that she handled the situation correctly, since she immediately decided to inform her team of representatives of what had happened. In addition, she reveals that she feels very grateful for having had the support of another actress during the remaining weeks before finishing the project. "My co-star was there with me and she said: 'Did I hear that correctly? And I said yes. And she asked me if I wanted to go for a walk and we had a terrible time. We cried a lot on that shoot, "he explained. in your direct
Since that traumatic moment, he has turned down roles in four films. At the moment, he assures that he prefers to focus on his work as a streamer. In addition, he assures that if he ever returns to the world of cinema, it will be from behind the cameras. "I am developing my own projects, and I hope that someone decides to finance them. Because then I will be able to have control of my own set, and I will not ask my actors to sleep with me," he expressed, in a way of vindication.
In addition to her role on Stranger Things, Grace Van Dien has played the character Brooke Osmond on the Netflix series Greenhouse Academy, as well as Katie Campbell on the NBC drama series The Village. She has also been part of the cast of movies like Lady Driver and Sleeping Beauty. It seems that, for the moment, it is unlikely that we will see her again in the world of interpretation.
