So many moments also when she found out her one bf was had a wife and child and she ran off it felt so raw.. she deserves so much more and I hate how the ending they didn’t even give her the proper respect by acknowledging her
I think there’s a few things behind this which have been ignored, but doesn’t defend that she didn’t have an increase in raise really 1) William H Macy is a more known actor which means he is going to be paid more on average. He is a face and brings in his own audience 2) William H Macy wrote some of the episodes where as far as I know, Emmy Rossun never did 3) Emmy Rossun’s attitude was detailed as being rather cruel to the cast and workers.

She was Persona Non Grata in Hollywood until they hired her in spite of her HORRIBLE reputation on sets. They gave her back her career. She owes THEM, not the other way around.
@ show me what leaps and strides her career made after the series was over. None! Thank you. This was her show; the Fiona character couldn’t have been played by anyone else in such success. Whether she was hired begrudgingly or not she was hired because they knew she could get the job done. Don’t get it twisted though I don’t think any of these actors “deserve “ to be paid what they are.
She's an excellent actress, but unfortunately she has a reputation of being difficult to work with. People who have worked with her say that she's arrogant and rude, and behaves like a diva on set. That would explain why she doesn't get more work. At one point she was on track to be a huge film star, but her career kind of fell off.
@@DetectiveTrupo203 hollywood producers and workers always say that about actors who doesn't shut up about their rights, y'all gotta realize that. She was paid less than her male co-stars while she was basically the protagonist. Is crazy.
@@SagaTheGemini-tg6fz she had that reputation long before shameless even existed. It has nothing to do with what she was paid on one show, it's just what cast and crew have said about her for her entire career.
Emmy deserves to be payed what she's asking for, she definitely has the talent to back it! One of my favorite things she's done was Phantom of the Opera! She is so beautiful and down to earth! Sucks for the show but good for her for walking! ❤❤
Good riddance, not gonna lie. She’s only good without her clothes on. Also, the actress playing Debbie opened up about Rossum being a total a- hole during sets
@@critdaddysama4656But she did get the pay bump plus BACK PAY for all these years. She completed her final season and decided to leave. Clearly they thought she was worth it.
I didn’t like Fiona much after like season 5. And her BFs were all annoying and so much older than her it was weird. They should have brought Jimmy Steve back
The true reason why she left: Macy was paid basically the same per episode but with a plus in some, since he was also a WRITER. Emmy, who is known to be a little spoiled and rude chose to throw a tantrum at that and even tho the producers paid her more, she still choose to leave. The thing is, after eight seasons, many of the cast were already tired of playing the same characters (specially when, at that point, many seemed to be given the same storylines time and time again). That's one of the reasons why Mickey was missing for some seasons and why Ian stopped appearing so much. With how Fiona's character was handled after season 4 (specially during season 7) I'm not surprised Emmy wanted to leave, Fiona was not the same strong and charismatic character that she was at the start of the show.
If you watch a special features you also find out who is directing the show as well as starring in the show so she really did deserve more pay on top of that she was basically raising the kids because she made their meals instead of having catering to make it more like she was their older sister making the dynamic more real. THEY WERE SCREWING HER!!!
Nah he worked more and he is more famous it's only fair also there's rumors that Emmy Rossum acted like a diva and was difficult to work with not sure if it's true or not but she did get like $350,000 per episode that's not bad
On the show friends each star made 1mil per episode and money for the repeat’s forever. So a show as popular as this, and as it’s only true lead, even if all the rest of that cast were big parts, Fiona was the biggest. She did deserve the largest pay. Frank wasn’t also in each episode, and Emmy Rossum (Fiona) proved she was shameless. The series died after she left.
@@lucasandreboaventura9820That's not how that works.. but she did deserve the same pay as Frank considering she was in a lot more episodes and was basically the main charecter
She definitely deserved to be paid more than William H. Her scenes were so intense and emotional I’m sure it took a toll on her. She had MORE scenes than Frank anyway and was the literal main character.
She was supposed to come back on the last few episodes but due to COVID restrictions she couldn't get back in time for filming as she was out of the country.
I love her character in the show, and I think killed it and actually MADE the show to a degree. I didn’t enjoy quite as much after she left, but I’ll be honest and a little disappointed to hear that she wasn’t the most pleasant person to work with on set.
I honestly stopped watching SHAMELESS after her character left. I tried watching for Ian and Mickey but i couldn't anymore. Fiona was by far my favourite character on the show😩
Lmao, why are the vaginas of the above two commenters so sandy? You literally just gave a completely whatever opinion and two people are immediately like “sweet bro, stfu, I don’t care.” 😂
I started the show liking her and as the show progressed I hated her character because every season was the same pattern: she meets a man, shes sceptical of him, she falls in love with him, he starts being shady, they have a big fight, and she ends up right where she started
She was not very popular among the cast members either, often cited as displaying rude behavior towards co-stars, which also increased the time of her departure from the show.
She should’ve understood that Macy is a veteran actor who has worked himself up to a status where he can demand more money for being a recognizable and bankable star - he’s had many roles. She’s still on the ladder working herself up.
In the UK version of shameless, Frank was the main character who has most of the plot in the US version Fiona definitely feels like that main character.
The show was good till the got all PC. And whoever wrote for Debbie sucks! They destroyed her character... I cannot stand to watch her scenes in anything past season 3
"Selfless" is an interesting choice of descriptors for Fiona. She was constantly selfish and lacked personal accountability. I'm fairly sure she didn't even apologise once in the entire series and the only reason she raised the kids was out of a sense of self righteousness. Fionas character drove me nuts, but Emmy is a phenomenal actress and played her very well, maybe too well with her on set attitude mirroring Fionas quite similarly, leading to some pretty bad blood between her and the rest of the cast, which eventuated in her departure.
While she was great on that show there was/is NO WAY she was gonna make close to what William was making smh. Man was Luke Skywalker and even Wrote an Ep of the show! Cmon son!
The reason he got paid more is because he has been acting form many decades. You can’t give a new actress, the same amount of pay, if somebody who’s been doing it for longer. His time is more valuable.
She was a good actress. But she didn't have the resume to back up her pay request like he did. It's like professional sports. The more accomplishment, the more you can ask for in pay. Yes, she gave the show 7 great seasons and should have had a substantial pay raise, but she messed up by trying to compare herself to him. What are you worth? Not I'm worth just as much as him.
She's a damn good actress, but her attitude caused her the stardom she was inches away from. Even Mariah Carey known for being a diva still knows where boundaries are, hence her career longevity.
The actress did such an amazing job but imo the writers did her character dirty. They had Fiona being such a hero for the family in the first 2 seasons then she started doing the most unhinged shit. WHY?!
Whatever happened to 'paying your dues'? Macy STARRED in Fargo & Jurassic Park ( just to name a few ), probably before she was born, so...yea, he gets a bigger piece of the pie. When she's headlining a series ( after another 20 years of grinding away at her craft ) and a few talented young co-stars start asking for more money, she'll understand.
She screaming to Monica you were my mom too and then cried ... great actress right there
Screaming and crying as an actor is not a special gift fricking Arnold Schwarzenegger who can’t act to save his life can do that 😂

Exactly...which is why she was right and deserved at least equal pay to her costar.
Give the girl her money!!!!
I loved her in Beautiful Creatures. Such a bad ass all around
Best thing about the show she’s awesome
The show tanked without her.
According to ratings and viewership, it tanked before she left.
she left the sinking ship...
I didn’t like Fiona much after like season 5. And her BFs were all annoying and so much older than her it was weird. They should have brought Jimmy Steve back
We need a “Fiona” spin off show!

She is the main reason of I watched whole series in 2 weekend ❤
She should have been paid as much as Macy, she was on screen way more than him and she deserved it.
She was the whole show. No Fiona no Shameless. 💯💯💯
She was The Star!
Lowkey happy she made me mad all the time
Dancing in her new spt was classic
we need a 2 hour episode showing us what happened to her for closure. Where did so go and did she reconnect with Jimmy?
He, as an actor, has been paying his dues forra long time. And he's a star. Thats why he gets the big bucks.
When I was a teenager I didn’t rate her enough, but now I understand that. She deserves more.
Remember that the older sister are the second mother ❤ always respect them
I absolutely loved Shameless and still binge watch it sometimes. All the good shows always go
she deserved more pay, she really is a big pillar in the show.
I sure liked her in, You're not You
Don't stay if your heart rotten away
And fly away to find a better place to stay
Excelente actriz y fenomenal serie....
Gods she's so beautiful
Sooooooo Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Facts
Solid 4/10. Stop simping. Her weird ass leftist lunatic husband is too good for her and thats saying a lot.

THEY WERE SCREWING HER!!!
I really enjoyed this show and most of the actors were really good. Loved the chemistry between Ian and Mickey.
She deserved WAY more than him. They ruined the show when she left, especially with Debbie.
Nop
I read a comment he helped write the show, I'd say she deserves equal if not a bit less
Nah he worked more and he is more famous it's only fair also there's rumors that Emmy Rossum acted like a diva and was difficult to work with not sure if it's true or not but she did get like $350,000 per episode that's not bad
I heard she was kind of a bitch to work with tho, she a great actor but I fs would be cool wit her leavin too😂😭
No she doesn't. They both got paid what they deserved
She was paid $500,000 and episode and wanted $750,000-$800,000 an episode til the shows end, they said absolutely not, and she left.
How do you know it’s half a million
But they paid the same amount for another actor. This is not fair
On the show friends each star made 1mil per episode and money for the repeat’s forever. So a show as popular as this, and as it’s only true lead, even if all the rest of that cast were big parts, Fiona was the biggest. She did deserve the largest pay.

90% watched because of her. She should have had top billing’s from day one how horrible

I saw her in a disney channel movie when she was younger and thought shed make a great hermoine
Shes beautiful
She should have got triple what Macy made she was the heart and soul of that family and the better actor
She definitely deserved to be paid more than William H. Her scenes were so intense and emotional I’m sure it took a toll on her. She had MORE scenes than Frank anyway and was the literal main character.

She was that good. She deserved equal pay.
Losing her is like losing Frank they carried that show 😢
The MOMENT she asked for more money it would’ve been a done deal 😂
The actors should've stuck together, like "friends"
I love her character in the show, and I think killed it and actually MADE the show to a degree. I didn’t enjoy quite as much after she left, but I’ll be honest and a little disappointed to hear that she wasn’t the most pleasant person to work with on set.
She got 8 seasons out of a show, most actor never got 1 or 2 season out of any show.
There are countless examples of actors and actresses sustaining a show for many seasons: Law and Order, Married…with children, etc…
Then there are countless of actors/actresses x1000 who we never knew 'cause they got nothing.@@Dank951
And that means she is incredibly talented and deserves equal pay.
She played Fiona Gallagher for nine, seasons, not 8 dummy
Actually 9
I honestly stopped watching SHAMELESS after her character left. I tried watching for Ian and Mickey but i couldn't anymore. Fiona was by far my favourite character on the show😩
Cool story.

I will miss fiona😢. she's the most accurate actress as fiona.
She didnt deserve equal pay. She deserved more than any other person on the show
If you played the same character for 9 seasons . . . then that isn't ditching a role if you decide to leave.
I started the show liking her and as the show progressed I hated her character because every season was the same pattern: she meets a man, shes sceptical of him, she falls in love with him, he starts being shady, they have a big fight, and she ends up right where she started
Emmy when you’re a Hollywood legend like Macy, then you can ask for the same pay. He has payed his time and shows his skills.
She was not very popular among the cast members either, often cited as displaying rude behavior towards co-stars, which also increased the time of her departure from the show.
She should’ve understood that Macy is a veteran actor who has worked himself up to a status where he can demand more money for being a recognizable and bankable star - he’s had many roles.
She’s still on the ladder working herself up.
I’m also sure that the amount of emotional subject matter that she had to portray as her character, Fiona, took a toll on her personally as well.
In the UK version of shameless, Frank was the main character who has most of the plot in the US version Fiona definitely feels like that main character.
she was what michael scott was for the office
FIONA ROCKED!😊
And she has done nothing since then. He has been in a lot more before that show so that is a big demand.
She carried the whole show. The show fumbled as soon as she went away
She was the main character, she should've been paid fair from the start
I really wished there was a GOODBYE to Fiona 😢😢😢 love you FIONA ❤❤❤MISS YOU 💖
She deserved better.
she deserved that pay for such a great cast of actors she was up there
She left the show, and the show went with her.
Looks fine asf in the show and looks fine asf when she not acting
I swear fionna so fine and so damn drop dead gorgeous!! 🤩🤩❤️
She is right
The show was good till the got all PC. And whoever wrote for Debbie sucks! They destroyed her character... I cannot stand to watch her scenes in anything past season 3
She absolutely deserved same pay if not more . Why ? She was compelling to watch & I bea big draw

She literally was the show that’s wild they were so stingy
*THE SHOW WAS NEVER THE SAME AFTER SHE LEFT SMH*
She was Special & what BS. I can't believe Bill Macy let that fly, considering She was the show. He was great too & I love his' movie.
How she wasn't making the most out of everyone is beyond me. She was incredible

Such a shame
Wtf !? I didn't know that!
She was literally the pillar of the show, for her not to be the highest payed is shameless
It’s crazy how people say she wasn’t that amazing of an actress. If that was true then why did the show flop as soon as she left?
