During an appearance on “The View,” Rita Moreno, a 92-year-old Hollywood icon, shared that she drew inspiration from the rude behavior of women in show business from her past, particularly during her “little Puerto Rican” upbringing, to play a mean-spirited professor in her latest film, The Prank. She expressed how she channeled the negative experiences she had with certain peers to get into character. While Moreno did not disclose any names, she recounted the unpleasant encounters she had faced in the industry. Her cohosts on the show, including Whoopi Goldberg, supported her perspective on the challenging personalities in Hollywood. The View is known for its heated discussions among hosts, making it a fitting platform for Moreno’s revelations.
