Alison Arngrim recently got candid and spoke about how much her fans hate her House on the meadow.
During the recent Little House on the Prairie 50th anniversary reunion on Friday, December 12, the 63-year-old American actress and author, who played Nellie Oleson in the American historical western drama TV series, spoke about playing a bully on the show in her early years.
Arngrim also reflected on the negative impact the show had on her career and personal life, as Nellie was known for making mean remarks and abusing everyone at school, including the Ingalls children.
She went on to state that her experience with fame was very different from the experiences of others on the show because of her character. Fans used to treat her with anger instead of the admiration that her other co-stars were accustomed to.
the The last place on earth “I never had anyone say, ‘Oh, I like you so much,'” the star said. I love you.’ It was: ‘I hate you. I hate you so much.’”
Arngrim revealed that “someone threw an orange soda in my face” when she was once marching in a Christmas parade, which made her feel strongly that her character had really “struck some kind of nerve” with viewers.
