Yeah, stop being such a nigger, bitch!
'Boy Meets World' star Trina McGee says the showrunner asked her to 'turn down' her Blackness while filming episodes centered on her character Angela


"Boy Meets World" star Trina McGee said she was asked to "turn down" her Blackness while filming episodes of the sitcom that were centered on her character, Angela Moore.

McGee, who starred on the series from 1997 to 2000, spoke about the moment when she was a guest on Monday's episode of the "Pod Meets World" podcast, where her former costars Rider Strong, Will Friedle, and Danielle Fishel rewatch and reflect on "Boy Meets World" episodes and interview former castmates.

"Coming from Black sitcoms, I always had to have like a Black meter," she said around the one-hour and eight-minute mark of the podcast while discussing how she would change her speaking voice on the "Boy Meets World" set.

She said showrunner Michael Jacobs came over to talk to her and instructed her to "just turn down the Telma Hopkins about eight notches," referring to the jazz singer and sitcom star who played Harriette Winslow's (Jo Marie Payton) sister Rachel Crawford on "Family Matters" between 1989 and 1997.
