Ryan Murphy took another dismissive swipe at Jack Schlossberg criticizing the upcoming John F Kennedy Jr miniseries (produced by Murphy), and Jack (nephew of John Jr) promptly responded. Murphy is currently doing a miniseries around the love story between JFK Jr and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy (both were killed, along with Bessette-Kennedy’s sister Lauren, in a 1999 plane crash).
Previously, Jack expressed anger regarding the exploitation of his uncle, especially without the consultation of the Kennedy family (Schlossberg’s mother is JFK Jr’s sister). Murphy’s response: “I like Jack’s Instagram when he just lip syncs to ’90s girl groups stuff. I want more of that. But I think it would be really hard if your relatives are always in the media.”
Murphy also criticized social media’s criticism of his show’s portrayal of Carolyn’s fashion, saying: “They’re doing to our Carolyn, what they did to the real-life Carolyn. It’s not fair.”
Unfortunately for Ryan Murphy, Jack Schlossberg isn’t backing down.
