yea i just read an article from a while back about shannens comments about the "I hate brenda newsletter"
this is what she had to say:
Q: Have you ever read the 'I hate brenda newsletter'?
A: No. I just read about it today in US magazine. "I hate Brenda"--that's not me, that's my character. And I agree. I dont like my character. And the only people to turn to is our writers. They should probably read the newsletter. I dont think she's written properly. I would like for them to make her a little bit more believable--not quite as sappy or bitchy or whatever.
After that shannen went on to state that she believes people are having trouble seperating Shannen from Brenda, and the fact that they are two completely different people.
