Demi Moore revealed in an emotional Golden Globes acceptance she was called a “popcorn actress” 30 years ago — a comment she said “corroded” her.
“30 years ago, I had a producer tell me that I was a popcorn actress and, at that time, I made that mean that this wasn’t something that I was allowed to have, that I could do movies that were successful, that made a lot of money, but that I couldn’t be acknowledged,” Moore said while accepting her award for best performance by a female actor in a motion picture, musical or comedy, for “The Substance.”
“I bought in, and I believed that, and that corroded me over time, to the point where I thought a few years ago that maybe this was it — maybe I was complete, maybe I’ve done what I was supposed to do,” she continued.
It was at that “low point,” Moore said, that she received the script for “The Substance,” which she called “magical, bold, courageous, out of the box [and] absolutely bonkers.” “The universe told me that you’re not done,” Moore said.
