Ungrateful, embarrasing and conceited.


This posh little thing had a meltdown on an Australian breakfast show when they mentioned her breakout role in Home and Away.

Australia doesn't want such an ungrateful snob so feel free to go away and never come back. Please return your origins, heritage, accent and any money you received from any Australian production and we'll happily forget all about you.

Criticize her all you want. I would make love to her all day and night. Love her ass and legs and she has sexy lips that I could kiss all night!! I'll worry about her meltdown after I'm done with her

It's true that George could be a little more humble and professional about her early career, in the vain of say Guy Pearce or Margot Robbie, who both put on a smile and answer questions about their Aussie soap roots even if they are rolling their eyes internally. That said, she's entitled to get sick of the question and I completely understand her frustration.

Perhaps the level of anger in that quote can be explained by the fact that she has always struggled to meet her own expectations in terms of her level of success in America. She's always been just "on the verge" of making it big and questions like that would remind her that Home & Away is still the first thing people in her homeland associate her with, which would have to bring her down if she's already feeling disappointed about her career. Not that I think she should, she is a fine supporting player and has always impressed me in her film and TV roles.

Nah she knows her worth. Nothing ungrateful about what she said.
