Tommy Wiseau refused to shoot a scene with a porn actress who was apparently a big fan of his. I know he was a nightmare to work with on The Room based on The Disaster Artist, but I never thought he would do this to someone over a decade later.

I'm a big time fan of him and The Room, but now I can't respect him anymore after this.

so what... If you choose to do porn, you're going to have to accept that not everybody think it's a moral choice, and in fact may find you so repugnant they refuse to work with you. I personally don't care about porn, but I can understand people not wanting anything to do with porn stars, especially mainstream "actors" like TW.

Has he seen his own movie? It might as well be softcore porn.

"Has he seen his own movie? It might as well be softcore porn."

Indeed. Totally agree. Hypocrisy at its best.
