Sarah Paulson opens up about her transformation to play Linda Tripp in 'Impeachment: American Crime Story.'

"It's very hard for me to talk about this without feeling like I'm making excuses," she shared, noting the controversy over actors wearing fat suits"is a legitimate one."

Though Paulson had previously vocalized her intention to gain weight for her role as Tripp, the civil servant who played a key role in exposing Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky. However, that plan didn't pan out. The actress also donned prosthetics, a blonde wig and large glasses to portray Tripp, but it's the fat suit she harbors"regret" over.

"And that is an important thing for me to think about and reflect on. I also know it's a privileged place to be sitting and thinking about it and reflecting on it, having already gotten to do it, and having had an opportunity that someone else didn't have. You can only learn what you learn when you learn it," Paulson said."Should I have known? Abso-f**ing-lutely. But I do now. And I wouldn't make the same choice going forward.

Linda Tripp was overweight. For a thinner actress to literally 'embody' overweight Linda Tripp as a character, they would need to transform their body.

Sarah Paulson Talks 'Regret' Over Wearing Fat Suit In 'American Crime Story' After Backlash“Was I supposed to say no [to the part]? This is the question,” the actor said about her upcoming role as Linda Tripp in “Impeachment: American Crime Story.” Rather tired of celebrities constantly apologizing for things other people get their knickers in a twist over. You would think for all the progress we've made in society, this would be the last thing people would have to do. Stop bowing to internet mobs & trolls! So stupid.. if we go down this road, the only appropriate role for MsSarahPaulson is to portray MsSarahPaulson at her current age and weight. All else is appropriation.

Sarah Paulson Addressed The Controversy Surrounding Her Fat Suit In 'Impeachment: American Crime Story''There’s a lot of controversy around actors and fat suits, and I think that controversy is a legitimate one.' People just need to give it up. Is it not the job of an actor to transform, become, & portray a character in a manner that makes it believeable to the audience? If you are apologizing for acting (aka job) then just quit because you’re not doing your job. Sounds like more self aggrandizing 'influencers' have found a new phony outrage to inflate their Social Blade stats. Do people even realize what an actors job is? The woke nonsense is an absolute joke
