“Not one bit. I’m not gonna invalidate [anyone’s] experience. But working in television is long hours. Sometimes you work up to 14 hours a day. And then you have to go home and prep. You have to really live and work in a very methodical way. A lot of young actors may not be up for the task, or have that same work ethic.”
“I’ve been in this business for 32 years. I know what hard work is. So when I heard those ‘reports.’”He continued,“I thought, ‘Where is this coming from? That’s just a normal work day’. Be a professional.”

This led her to allegedly storm offset with Levinson reducing her role in the season. However, she clapped back at the reports stating the whole whisper going around was untrue. Meanwhile, Domingo’s comment has hit the Internet in quite a different way.
