This interview proves people in the followers shit is getting way outta hand in terms of jobs. Like all these tiktok kids getting big acting roles for doing dance trends . Like josh has been in other roles way before high school musical show but hearing him say he wasn’t getting roles bc some people who auditioned had more social media followers really pisses me off like there actors if they good they good they shouldn’t be giving roles to people just bc of followers. That basically proves a lot of “actors “ get work for actually doing no acting practice/studying

[@AmandaaRose]

That Hilary Duff moment sounds so cute lol

[@carmenosio329]

Big fan if his❤

[@SydneyKong]

So josh wouldn’t get roles because he didn’t have enough followers on social media ? DAMN THATS FUCKED UP

[@juulBett]

Unfortunately it does make sense, directors want likable people in their shows so more viewers will watch it. If they don’t have enough followers that shows that people don’t like them

[@abdullahalsarraf7291]

@@juulBett Ew like Addison rae who's acting sucked

Awwww it looks like Joshua Bassett need some cheese with his wine just in case if he starts whining

[@chasecloeter2770]

and I thought Matt Cornett said he has A little tiny crush on Joshua Bassett since they are best friends in childhood like A brother to Matt become close and start dating and work on their bromance to the next level when Matt has A crush on Joshua before Joshua thought that he think he didn't know about it

[@patrickf7104]
