In one of many extra surprising movie star feuds, actor Carrie Coon is sniping again at former “View” co-host Meghan McCain, who slammed the “White Lotus” star on social media Thursday for “showing her tits to everyone” on the third season at the moment airing on HBO.
The drama surprisingly started with a Hollywood Reporter function revealed Wednesday, during which Coon stated she was glad that her “White Lotus” co-star Leslie Bibb performs a conservative lady named Kate — who reveals she voted for President Donald Trump.
“I do think people like Meghan McCain and her community are really gratified to see a conservative person on television,” Coon instructed the outlet on the time. “I have conservative people in my life who reached out to me to say that was an awesome conversation.”
“I don’t think it vilifies Kate,” she added about Bibb’s character popping out as a Republican.
McCain appeared offended by the feedback — regardless of Coon particularly noting that she’s glad to see a conservative perspective represented and hasn’t deserted her right-wing mates in actual life — and slammed the actor Thursday on X, previously Twitter.
“Yes Carrie, I am ‘gratified’ that the conservative character represented on White Lotus is the responsible, family oriented one not making a fool of herself,” wrote McCain. “Unlike the progressive liberal you’re representing who is sleeping with hotel staff and showing her tits to everyone.”
Coon’s character doesn’t sleep with any of the fictional staffers and has solely been proven nude whereas skinny-dipping or having intercourse with a lodge employee’s pal. The actor reacted to the weird backlash to her interview feedback with an insult of her personal Thursday on X: “I didn’t realize my quote was so inflammatory. Is ‘gratified’ a new trigger word?”

Their feud seemingly started in March when McCain reacted to Trump’s speech to Congress on social media by thanking the president for his “beautiful” vow to fight little one most cancers. McCain’s father, the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), died from mind most cancers in 2018 at 81 years outdated.
“Who’s gonna tell her?” Coon posted later, referring to Trump killing an necessary supply of funding to analysis glioblastoma — the identical most cancers that killed Meghan McCain’s father — prompting the pundit to share her “heartbroken” and since-deleted response.
Whether or not Coon and McCain will ever make up stays to be seen. The “White Lotus” finale airs Sunday on HBO.
