Casting couch experiences have been horrible for young actors trying to make their way into Hollywood. Stranger Things star Grace Van Dien, who portrayed the character of Chrissy Cunningham in the 4th season of the Netflix show, went through a similar situation herself.
After finding fame with the release of Stranger Things, the people found out that Grace Van Dien was also a Twitch streamer! Van Dien played titles like Valorant and Fortnite with the streamer name of BlueFille. In a recent live stream on her channel, the actress revealed the horrible things that Hollywood entailed including being asked to a threesome!
Grace Van Dien Was Asked For A Threesome By A Producer!
As people found out about the Twitch channel, the actress/Twitch streamer amassed quite a few thousand followers. With live streams and chatting with the audiences, Grace Van Dien revealed that she wished to focus more on streaming games rather than acting gigs. She revealed that she had already turned down multiple acting gigs and shared her horrible experience with one of the producers of a Hollywood film that asked her for a threesome.

Grace Van Dien stated that with streaming, she could work or collaborate with anyone that she would like to work with. This was not the case for acting gigs however as Van Dien met a number of people that wanted something in return for the acting jobs that Grace Van Dien earned.
“[I] didn’t have the best experiences with some of the people [she] had to work for” during her last few projects. With streaming, I get to choose who I hang out with, who I talk to, etc.”
Van Dien added that one of the producers had convinced someone whom he was sleeping with to ask Grace Van Dien for a threesome.
“One of the last movies I did, one of the producers asked me to… like, he hired a girl that he was sleeping with and then he had her ask me to have a threesome with them,” Van Dien said. “So… that’s my boss. And then I didn’t and I cried and I was so upset. But when people are like, ‘How is streaming better for your mental health?’ That’s how. I get to stay inside my house and play video games and I don’t have my boss asking me to have sex with them.”
Although this does not end her commitment to acting, it does seem that the Stranger Things star will likely take a break from acting roles for a while. The actress revealed that she has plans of her own if someone could just fund them.
Grace Van Dien Is Developing Her Own Projects
While emphasizing that she will focus primarily on her Twitch career for the time being, Grace Van Dien hopes to return to acting gigs soon. The actress further revealed that she is developing her own projects and just needs funding. She further joked that she will not ask other actors to sleep with her when she would be in charge.
“I’m happy here, and I’m developing my own projects,” she said. “I’m hoping that someone decides to fund them because then I can be in control of my own set, and I’m not gonna ask my actors to sleep with me.”
At the time of writing, BlueFille aka Grace Van Dien currently has 291k followers on her Twitch profile. She is currently attached to 3 upcoming projects in various stages of development but it’s unclear whether she will continue with them or simply drop from her acting gigs.
