Selena Gomez and her fans are calling out a recent episode of TheGoodFight for referencing the former Disney star’s kidney transplant.
In the fourth episode of the Paramount+ show’s fifth season, a comedy television executive asks Liz to put together a sensitivity read for one of his comedians. The scene continues on with characters Marissa , Jay and Jim , as the group contemplates the effects of cancel culture on comedy.
Jay asks what topics are off-limits, as the group supplies answers including necrophilia, autism and “Selena Gomez’s kidney transplant.” Following backlash over the episode that included fans tweeting “Respect Selena Gomez,” Gomez took to social media herself to discuss the scene. “I am not sure how writing jokes about organ transplants for television shows has become a thing but sadly it has apparently,” Gomez wrote on Twitter and Instagram on Tuesday. “I hope in the next writer’s room when one of these tasteless jokes are presented it’s called out immediately and doesn’t make it on air.
