Rachel Zegler claims West Side Story bosses questioned her Colombian heritage and she felt she had to 'prove her identity to a bunch of white executives'
Rachel Zegler has claimed that West Side Story bosses questioned her Colombian heritage.
She jetted off to a remote castle in Segovia, Spain, to perform for around 100 select 'VIPs' which included influencers and families, though the event raised eyebrows as she was the only star in attendance, with not even Gal Gadot, who plays the Evil Queen, present. Disney are reportedly treading carefully with Zegler after she has made a series of bold comments panning the original 1937 classic for its 'sexist' traditional romance plot and 'dated' love story. A large scale premiere would have also taken place at Leicester Square in London, but an insider informed DailyMail.com earlier this month that a decision was made to not hold one for the upcoming movie.
