Love Island USA dismisses Vasana Montgomery after resurfaced racist videos
Alexa Demie, widely recognised for her role as Maddy Perez in HBO’s Euphoria, has firmly denied rumours suggesting she plans to retire from acting after the show’s third season.
The speculation appears to have originated from a resurfaced 2020 podcast interview in which Demie discussed the limited opportunities available to Latina actors in Hollywood, as well as her relatively small number of acting credits.These comments led some fans to assume she might be stepping away from the industry.In a more recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Demie clarified that she has no intention of quitting acting.
Instead, she emphasised that she is deliberately selective about the projects she chooses, prioritising quality and personal fulfilment over quantity.
She explained that her less frequent on-screen appearances should not be mistaken for a lack of ambition, noting that she prefers to keep her professional aspirations private.
Demie also reflected on the challenges she has faced as an actress of Hispanic background, acknowledging that finding suitable roles has not always been straightforward.
Despite these obstacles, she expressed continued enthusiasm for her craft and a strong connection to her character in Euphoria, which has significantly contributed to her public profile.
Her comments aim to dispel misunderstandings about her career trajectory, reinforcing that her slower pace is a conscious choice rather than a withdrawal from acting.
As anticipation builds for Euphoria’s third season, Demie remains committed to her work while maintaining a lifestyle that aligns with her personal values.
