Rebel Wilson got the publicity push for her new movie, Isnt It Romantic, off to a rough start with some heavily criticized remarks on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last week.
Wilson sat down with DeGeneres Oct. 31 to chat about the film, which co-stars Adam DeVine and Liam Hemsworth and opens on Valentines Day 2019. At one point during the interview, the Pitch Perfect actress praised Isnt It Romantic for breaking away from Hollywood tropes, and said she was proud to be the first-ever plus-sized girl to be the star of a romantic comedy.
Twitter was quick to point out, however, that Wilson overlooked a number of plus-size actresses whove starred in romantic comedies before.
I love @RebelWilson as much as the next girl, but she isnt the first plus sized woman to play the lead in a romantic comedy. Queen Latifah and MoNique have both played romcom leads https://t.co/l2uEpwvcsF

As Georgia Byrd in 2006s Last Holiday , Queen Latifah fell for LL Cool Js Sean Williams after embarking on a luxury European vacation assuming she had just weeks to live. That same year, MoNique starred as the succulent Jazmin Biltmore in Phat Girlz , where she romanced a buff Nigerian doctor, Tunde Jonathan (Jimmy Jean-Louis), at a Palm Springs resort.
Others went a step further, and said Wilsons comments amounted to another example of black erasure in popular culture.

By Saturday, MoNique herself chimed in on Twitter, suggesting Wilson take a moment and know the history of romantic comedies before making such bold claims about her casting.

Unfortunately for Isnt It Romantic, the backlash doesnt appear to be dissipating anytime soon. Wilson has now reportedly blocked a number of critics of her Ellen DeGeneres Show claims on Twitter, inspiring a #RebelWilsonBlockedMe hashtag.

UPDATE: 6:18 p.m. On Monday evening, Wilson issued a mea culpa. I neglected to show the proper respect to those who climbed this mountain before me like MoNique, Queen Latifah, Melissa McCarthy, Ricki Lake and likely many others, she tweeted.
In a couple of well-intentioned moments, hoping to lift my fellow plus sized women up, I neglected to show the proper respect to those who climbed this mountain before me like MoNique, Queen Latifah, Melissa McCarthy, Ricki Lake and likely many others.
