I don\u2019t applaud my own behaviour in that. It\u2019s a really tricky world.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We put a lot of blame on bullies and when we get older we can understand that people are insecure.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you start standing up for yourself, it\u2019s really tricky. They\u2019ll fire you and give the job to someone else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rebecca first spoke out about her ordeal during an appearance on the Reign with Josh Smith podcast last year.<\/p>\n<p>She said:  \u201cI remember there was a moment and this human being was being so insecure and angry because this person couldn\u2019t get the scenes out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think I was so vulnerable and uncomfortable that I got screamed at.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut because this person was number one on a call sheet, there was no safety net for me. So no one had my back. And I would cry walking off set&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This person would literally look at me and say, &#8216;You call yourself an actor?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I remember being so scared. And I looked at this person and said, &#8216;You can eff off. I\u2019m going to work toward a tennis ball. I never want to see you again. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>The Greatest Showman star later admitted she received phone calls from former co-stars who were concerned she had implicated them.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on The Jess Cagle Show, she said: &#8220;The point of the interview wasn\u2019t about finding the person \u2014 of course, people will be interested. But I was excited about the question, which was a very good question by [Josh Smith]. Because the point was: Is there a point in your career where you were treated in a way where you changed your decision on \u2014 this is how I formulated it in myself \u2014 where you want change, or you will not accept it? And it was such a clear moment for me working with this person.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But I got phone calls from amazing co-stars who I\u2019ve worked with going, \u2018You understand what you\u2019ve done, right?!&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And I was like, \u2018Oh my God. No, I didn\u2019t think.\u2019 I mean, it\u2019s not my responsibility, to be honest. I don\u2019t really care. You know, \u2018You\u2019re great, but my story is my story, and if you\u2019re a good person, then don\u2019t worry about it.'&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rebecca Ferguson has claimed the co-star she branded an &#8220;absolute idiot&#8221; has made people have a &#8220;s***** time&#8221;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":208128,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,1348,447,3355,134,3359,3353,44,3356,3354,3357,3358,1346],"class_list":["post-208127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-breaking-news","tag-celebrities","tag-daily-news","tag-entertainment","tag-global-news","tag-inkl","tag-news","tag-news-app","tag-news-headlines","tag-news-today","tag-today-news","tag-world-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=208127"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208127\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/208128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=208127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=208127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=208127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
