get to know me meme: [4/20] favorite celebrities ♥ arden cho
Being a girl in the industry is really hard. A lot of people try
to take advantage of you, and a lot of people try to get you to do
things and take shortcuts. I’ve had to shoo a lot of bad people out of
my life, and I’ve had to dodge a lot of bullets, but I will say that it
is possible to do it and do it right. I don’t think you have to sell out
in this industry to make it. I hope young girls will respect who they are, respect their bodies, and respect themselves. Girls should stand up for themselves more and be confident in who they are so that they aren’t disrespected. The more confident you are and the firmer you stand, the harder it is to push you off.
Unfortunately, it looks like we’re wrapped up with kira’s storyline, and she won’t be coming back for season six.
crystal reed left the show voluntarily. the showrunners arranged a beautiful, dramatic ending for her. crystal was never mistreated on the show.
arden cho on the other hand, was dropped from the show unwillingly and without a reasonable explanation. she genuinely thought she’d be around for season 6. furthermore, she was cropped out of scenes and was cut out of episodes without her actually knowing until they were aired. her last appearance on the show was not what a proper departure should look like.
arden’s character was just as significant as crystal’s (well at least for a while) and arden should’ve gotten the exact same treatment that crystal and her character received.
when crystal left, we were mourning her character. when arden left, we’re mourning more than just her character.
Arden Cho didn’t left the show, she was kicked out.
She thought she was gonna be in S6, THEY FUCKING KICKED HER OUT.
DON’T LET THIS GO UNNOTICED. POCs ARE NOT DISPOSABLE.
I do wish we would have developed a little bit more of her powers and there would have been more of an epic ending. But you never know with Teen Wolf, people might come back. It is what it is. – Arden Cho on leaving Teen Wolf
I do wish we would have developed a little bit more of her powers and there would have been more of an epic ending. But you never know with Teen Wolf, people might come back. It is what it is. […] I’m so thankful to all of you guys, because without you it just wouldn’t really matter at all. Thank you so much for being supportive, I do hope that you guys will continue to support my future projects. […] I love you so much. –Arden Cho, Goodbye Teenwolf
hollandrodenArden Cho has now comfirmed that she will no longer be returning to Teen Wolf for season six. As a view who has watched Arden puts years of hard work and dedication into this show, it’s sad to see the writers treating their only leading lady of color this way and simply writing her off with no explantation. Don’t let all of Arden’s hard work go unnoticed. #ArdenChoDeservesBetter
It was so hard – I came out to LA with not much at all. My parents couldn’t really support me financially, so I worked a lot of odd jobs and spread myself really thin. I didn’t have family or a community out here, […] I was in a really dark place for eight, nine months, until I finally got out. Somehow, miraculously, I still made it out. Granted I’ve always had a roof over my head, but there were points in my career when I was so broke, I didn’t know where my next meal was going to come from – starving artist – literally! Every day I’m thankful for those times because until I really struggled, I never really appreciated good food, good friends, and good weather, because I thought that those things were expected. I think every year I hit a point like that because I’m still just trying to learn how to walk. I can’t wait until the day I can run. You just have keep going. You have to be resilient and keep your head up. There will always be people trying to push you down.
Ok, so Arden did film for 5x18, they just cut her parts out.
Not sure yet if that makes me even more upset…it probably does tbh.
what a dick, he also said this: (thanks to tumblr user theoraekens for taking a screenshot)

And honestly, did he honestly expect the whole world to stop taking pictures or just sweet as pie Arden? Because how much of a scumbag do you need to be to publicly target someone as well-meaning as her? Fuck off with your pretentious bullshit.
Also Colton posted a selfie too and I’m not hearing shit from Ian about that….
Fucking disgusting piece of shit.
