"I've played killers, crazies, and really bad people"
About this Quote
The wording is telling. “Killers” is concrete, tabloid-ready. “Crazies” is looser, slightly jokey, the kind of shorthand that signals she’s in on the caricature even as she’s naming it. “Really bad people” widens the net to include the slippery moral villains that daytime drama and prime-time soap operas have historically loved: the glamorous schemer, the icy rival, the woman written as danger in heels. Brittany, known to many through Dynasty-era melodrama and TV’s appetite for heightened archetypes, is speaking from within an industry that often rewards repetition more than reinvention. Typecasting isn’t just a casting problem; it’s a public-relations problem. Play a villain long enough and viewers start treating it as biography.
So the intent isn’t self-pity. It’s control. By stacking these labels in a single line, she reframes them as professional territory she can claim, not a stigma that claims her. The subtext: don’t confuse my job with my character, but also don’t underestimate what it takes to make “bad” memorable.
