You are probably right. I just didn't want to make any sweeping statements about it being totally impossible for a fat actress to succeed, long term, without taking "fat person" roles. Because there's always an exception somewhere. But it's so unlikely that I don't blame fat actors at all for basically not feeling like they have any choice, when the odds are so firmly against them.

There may very well be exceptions, but generally speaking. We all know this to be true. It should change but Hollywood is full of people who seem hellbent on preventing it.
I also don't put it past Hollywood for one fucking second to choose a less talented actress for a role just because she's thinner/more attractive. Not for one second.

Oh hell yes. From everything I've seen, they do this all the fucking time. (I'm a BG actor, so I get to see a little bit more of the industry than most people, though as someone who isn't pursuing acting, I don't get to see a ton of the ins and outs of that world.)

It's actually something I've complained about before, myself. The amount of the time they cast a mediocre actress who's a ten, instead of a fantastic actress who's an eight or nine. Like, oh no, god forbid you cast someone capable of elevating your shitty writing and actually bringing the character to life. Nope. You're gonna cast someone who brings nothing to the part that isn't right there on the page, because she's the hottest, and you're a sexism hack.

*sexist, not sexism. Lol. Although sexism hacks sound like they could be useful.

-Some random site that makes money off of ads and clickbait articles, probably.
