Mayim Bialik has responded to former 'SNL' star Melanie Hutsell's apology for playing Blossom with a prosthetic nose. 'I did not intend to disparage you or 'SNL' and I really appreciate your thoughtfulness around this!'
."It made for an interesting essay and with everything going on in the world, I'm virtually hugging you and appreciate you very much!","I was absolutely horrified that they wanted me to wear a prosthetic nose to play Mayim Bialik's character, Blossom. I knew it was wrong.
Hutsell also told EW that Bialik had forgiven her when the two actresses crossed paths about 10 years after the sketch. "The whole situation haunted me for years, but thankfully I had an opportunity at an audition about ten years after the fact to look Mayim in the eye and apologize for what I did, to which she responded, 'I release you!' I took that to mean that she accepted my apology and that meant more to me than she will ever know.".
In addition to saying that she "felt ashamed" over the depiction, Bialik also wrote that she feared the wider emotional implications of thesketch beyond her own personal reaction. "Girls all over the world used to tell me that they had never seen a Jewish girl like me on TV before they saw me on," she wrote. "Many said they knew I was Jewish and it made them proud to be.
