Staying Humble
Even though Chrissy was a lead in an NBC show with a big paycheck, she’s maintained her humility. In an interview with Glamour she said, “You may think, ‘Ooh, you’re on TV, you’re a millionaire!’ No. It’s definitely a lot more than I was making, but I still live with my roommate – though I pay my proper share of the rent now.” Even with a bit more money, this actress doesn’t just go wild on shopping sprees. In fact, she expressed she still feels “buyer’s remorse.” She also said, “I just got my first pair of Alexander McQueen shoes; I’m so convinced I shouldn’t have bought them.”
Contract Specifications
There’s been much debate about what’s in Chrissy Metz’ contract since her character is losing weight. Metz made it clear she will lose weight sensibly. She told PEOPLE, “It’s definitely a conversation that we’ve had, and it’s in my contract,” but also emphasized she will be shaping up “in a healthy manner.” In addition she stated, she “started incorporating a better eating regimen and started to do things personally, but not something so drastic because it’s going to be a lifestyle change not just for Kate but for me…I have to be aware of not losing too much weight because of the show. I want to do it in the right way. It’s a gradual process.”
