"Paid To Get Naked on TV" Comment Shut Down By Actor Emmy Rossum

Actor Emmy Rossum is known to speak her mind and she yet again did the same to a comment that slammed her. On Wednesday, Oct. 7, Rossum couldn't help but clap back at a critical comment about her career. The comment came after Rossum told her followers that she "can't wait" to get her "I'm Speaking" T-shirt, referencing Kamala Harris' quote from Wednesday's Vice Presidential debate.

After reading Rossum's tweet, one social media user replied, "Yeah your shirts that say I GET PAID TO GET NAKED ON TV are sold out."

In response, the Shameless alum defended her acting roles. "I get paid to tell stories and life sometimes involves this awesome thing called sex," Rossum wrote. "Maybe you've just never had any so you don't know."

Seeing this exchange, Rossum's fans applauded her response, with one Twitter user writing, "You are my f--king hero."

It was just over two years ago that Rossum announced her decision to leave the Showtime series Shameless which was immensely loved, "The opportunity to play Fiona has been a gift," Rossum said of her character in her goodbye message. "There are few characters—female or otherwise—as layered and dynamic. She is a mother lion, fierce, flawed and sexually liberated. She is injured, vulnerable, but will never give up."
