“I did not have the power to get anyone fired," Milano added in an Instagram post over the weekend, pinning the decision on late TV producer Aaron Spelling and the studio, who she said made the call after listening to a professional mediator assigned to the behind-the-scenes investigation's recommendations.

She’s only saying that to save her ass, heaps of actors got other actors fired off tv shows, and movies over petty shit.

Like Stallone being petty with Lori Petty during the making of Demolition Man.

What's that story? I know Stallone had a huge reputation for being a diva - getting the original director of Tango and Cash fired for example but I hadn't heard about Demolition Man.

In an April 1993 issue of Entertainment Weekly, Lori refused to elaborate other than saying that they didn't work well together. In the August 1995 issue of Spy, she described their compatibility as oil and water. In the June 1993 issue of Spy, Joel Silver revealed that she was fired after three days of filming. With her dyed hair cut, he thought that she looked like a “muff-diver.”

My take on it is that it might have something to do with Wesley Snipes. Lori has always had a preference for dating black men, so perhaps Sly felt snubbed. He is a fairly prickly person to work with.

There was an actress who was replaced on Tango and Cash because one of the producers was sleeping with Teri Hatcher.
