Emmy Rossum Turns 26, But Is Likely Still Hated

It’s a happy 26th birthday to Emmy Rossum, who has engendered no small amount of hate due to… what, exactly? The fact she’s one of these multi-hyphenate talents, daring to both sing and act and do modeling and what not as well? I’m not sure if her topless scenes in Shameless have helped or hurt her any in this regard — all I know is that in the maybe three or four pieces I’ve penned about either her or her movies over the years, the comments sections have reliably gotten blown up by weirdo trolls, in a manner and to a degree not really keeping with her stature or public profile. So what is it about her that so sets some folks off? I’d really like to know.
