Hey!

A lot of actors have spoken about the casting couch and there are so many blinds of directors and others abusing their position to prey on actors.

In your opinion, what should an actor do when faced with this problem?

If it's a big offer, should they agree 'cause they just can't let the opportunity pass by? There is also the danger of being blacklisted for other projects if the person in question bitches about the actor to others.

What can BW do to prevent this from happening? Or is the ' I scratch your back, you scratch mine' system too difficult to dismantle?

Do you know of such instances of the casting couch?

Have all successful stars participated in this one way or the other?

Spill.

People are dreaming IMO if they pretend none of their favorites have ever faced the casting couch or have not said yes to it to reach where they are. The people on the very top are not necessarily people with talent, but who do whatever it takes and whatever it takes to take them there. And to some it may mean a casting couch.
Logically if people are that ambitious would they let a casting couch stand in the way of that ? I can sit on a high horse and condemn them but I condemn the industry that has such a few gate keepers that they take advantage.

I think each and every actor n actress do it (only very very few exceptions) n its very evident from various movies too. Even guys too , many r bisexuals in bolly. if they do it n they are adult n fall for this then i dont think anyone should hv any problem wd this 😊
Its their choice.
