Azzi Fudd couldn’t think of an actress to play her in a movie, and Paige Bueckers called her out while naming Zendaya
Throughout the podcast, the two ex-girlfriends had a lot of moments that went viral on social media. Their announcement of the breakup was one of those, as was their banter about who has won more 1-on-1s between the two.
This particular moment came when Fudd was asked which actress should play her in a movie. While she struggled to answer, Bueckers pointed out the obvious while making fun of her.
“I can’t think of any names of actors or actresses,” Fudd said. “Bro here, she goes. Just say, Zendaya gang. Just say Zendaya, gang. Zendaya, Zendaya. I don’t know why you’re trying to run around that one,” Bueckers said, while having some fun at Azzi’s expense.
Bueckers herself picked Ellen Pompeo to play her without hesitation if there was a movie about her. Maybe it was Paige’s supposed ‘crush’ on the actress that stopped her ex from mentioning her. But when Bueckers brought her up, Fudd did eventually agree.
