Whitney Cummings Reveals the Real Reason She Left 'Roseanne'

Whitney Cummings is sharing the truth about her exit from Roseanne.

The 36-year-old actress, who originally remained quiet about leaving the show, says it was actually all about Roseanne Barr‘s tweeting history and was “so pissed” about her racist remarks.

“I wanted her to get off Twitter. I felt like it was going to come to a head. It was like whack-a-mole,” Whitney said on The Daily Beast’s “The Last Laugh” podcast.

She added that the cast and crew put their “heart and soul” into the project and “all worked really hard on that show” and it was “just for nothing.”

Roseanne has since been outed from the show, which was brought back to life in a spinoff series, The Conners.
