Kat Dennings reveals strong feedback on negative comments

Kate Dennings was reportedly a victim of fat shaming during her childhood.

In a new chat with PEOPLE Magazine, Kate Dennings recalled a time when she was fat shamed by a director.

During this conversation, the 2 Broke Girls actress shared that at that time she was only a teenager and was working as a child in the industry.

"It was pretty crazy thinking about it. I'm like, 'How can anyone say that about a little kid? This is insane,' For example, I was 12,” the 38-year-old actress recalled.

Nonetheless, she confessed that she had a "very strong" outlook on the negative feedback she'd receive from casting directors.

"That was my attitude,” she continued and noted, “For some reason, it didn't break my spirit. I was like, 'I'll show them.' "

Before signing off from the chat, the star continued, "I guess props to my parents, because they were like, 'They're idiots. Don't listen to them.' And I was like, 'They're idiots, I'm not.' "
