It ain’t easy being easy…or cheesy…or green…or a recast — as Cherie Jimenez (Gabi Hernandez, Days of our Lives) found out after stepping into her alter-ego’s stilettos.
Cherie Jimenez Calls Out Hostile Fans
“I’m not going to sugarcoat it. I cried a bunch in the beginning. The fanbase was basically bullying me,” confessed the actress to Woman’s World. “People miss Camila [Banus] and even though I tried to bring elements of her to the role, I’m not Camila. I was getting ripped apart in so many different ways—and people were reaching out to do it. It really hurt…
“Bullying is not okay, in any form. And I choose to change the narrative and what I acknowledge. My life is very full. I’m blessed. I’m so thankful.
“I’m also proud of my work. My producers and bosses let me know that I have exceeded their expectations, and now, I have some fans. I’d say it’s 50/50, so I’m focusing on the viewers that are giving me a chance and showing me love.” Hear, hear!
