Constance Wu first gained attention playing a tiger mom on the TV series\\xa0Fresh Off the Boat. While she was in the series, Wu was cast in a movie called\\xa0Crazy Rich Asians, a critical and commercial success that made Wu a movie star. But then she made a mistake. She tweeted about how disappointed she was that\\xa0Fresh off the Boat\\xa0had been renewed. The backlash was swift with fans calling Wu spoiled and ungrateful. I talk to Constance Wu about the perils of social media and lessons learned. \\u201cNow What?\\u201d is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Andreea Coscai and Alex Wolfe. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.
