Rachel Zegler updates her Instagram bio amid Snow White controversy
Rachel Zegler has been in the spotlight for months, sparking ongoing debates. Amid the controversy, she recently made a playful update to her Instagram bio, adding, “Golden Globes winner who does hard things.” This change comes as she continues to face criticism over the Snow White controversy.
Users in the Reddit thread sharing a screenshot of Zegler’s bio were quick to rally behind her. Some even praised her performance in Disney’s Snow White. A user named @Economy-Kooky commented, “Yeah, they could never make me hate this beautiful, talented queen who stands on the right side of history.”
Zegler’s updated Instagram bio follows a recent explosive report detailing behind-the-scenes tensions between Zegler and her co-star Gal Gadot. According to the report, the friction between the two actresses allegedly began when Zegler seemingly mocked Gadot in an Instagram comment following their joint appearance at the Oscars.
Zegler’s past controversies, including her August 2024 post regarding Palestine, also allegedly raised concerns at Disney, despite Gadot being Israeli and formerly of the IDF. Producer Marc Platt reportedly met with her in an effort to address the situation, but Zegler refused to remove the post. Tensions further escalated after Zegler made strong political statements following the presidential election, alienating large portions of the American population. In response, the studio arranged for a social media consultant to oversee her posts.
The studio had previously faced backlash when she criticized the 1937 animated Snow White at Disney’s D23 event. All the aforementioned developments culminated in Snow White’s disappointing box office performance.
