In ‘Grosse Pointe Garden Society’ star Melissa Fumero is a messy socialite with secrets

Melissa Fumero has risen to her photography of Al -Kamour, of the type A police officer Amy Santiago on the long -term comic play “Brooklyn nine nine”. But in the new NBC drama “Grosse Pointe Garden Society”, FUMERO has been given a rare opportunity to abandon a chaotic social that hides its dark secrets.

It was created by the executive producers “Goodie Girls” Jenna Bans and Bill Krebs, the new stars Fumero in the role of Birdie Bradey, the best -selling author who, after the failure of its car during the influence, is forced to complete the community service imposed by the court in one of the Garden club in Tony EntCave of Grosse Pointe Michigan.

Six months after its arrival, she does not participate in a clan of the garden suburbs, Birdie and three other members-Aja Naomi King, and the ambitious business owner of Brett (Ben Rappaport) and high school teacher (Annasophia Robb)-they find themselves available to move away from Killing in Night of Club Winter Gala. The first season continues through two schedules of time tables: the months before the killing, then the night when the mysterious death (and its direct effects) occur.

“I was a little afraid of reading birds just because she felt like a big character can be easily caricature,” Fumero told NBC News. “But then I just went, and now it might be one of the most favorite characters that I have ever played.”

Obviously how fun Fumero was chewing the scene. While Birdie can coincide with a small and outdoors, Fumero believes that Birdie is a survivor from the streets that you realized can use “its appearance, its senses and energy” to attract the attention of the wealthy men and build its brand.

In the first show, Birdie is trying to repair her public image when she is interested in financial support for the son who abandoned him to adopt high school.

“She went through a lot while she was fought to reach where she is, and now she is so covered in her identity that she was terrified to inspect any of them,” said Fumero. “She is there with the book, The Big House and The Chanel, and it is like,” Who am I, and what do I want even in life? “I think we are really meeting her in a really low moment in her life.”

Like Birdie, Fumero photographed its own place in the public lighton. The younger Fumero originated from two children born to the Cuban immigrants, grew up in dance and performance, and after it was transferred to see its first plays in Broadway, the act of acting was caught when she was nine or ten.

While some of the migrant parents may put functional goals for their children, Boomero said that her mother and father have sacrificed everything they can support – even if they had not taken her aspirations to act seriously until she was accepted in the prestigious drama program at New York University. Fumero, who is now the mother of two children, has begun only in recent years, facing the same “frightening” feelings that her parents have faced.

“I was really hoping that an academic child would be a new, and that my children were clearly attracted to creative things, which is exciting. But I get panic now, especially with knowledge directly about the difficulty of this job,” said Fumero. “But I also feel very lucky to do something I like to do, and I want that to my children. I am so grateful that my parents raised me the way they did. It was a great example for me how your child loved without restriction or condition.”

From “Brooklyn” to “Grosse Pointe”

Fumero’s life changed forever when it was filmed in “Brooklyn Nine Nine”, a leading comic play It has been praised by its various specifications, but without stereotypes About personal sweat, skin color, or sexual orientation.

Fumero called for the tears of the comic council stationed in the police area “Best Chapter of My Life”, in addition to working hard in an unknown offer that will later become part of the cultural era, she and many of her colleagues in the team and religion at the same time. In an emotional publication after death Among her former star Andre Braurger, Fumero, to encourage her not to feel guilty when she is asking for a break from work to save time for her family.

Fumero even started to re -watch parts of “Brooklyn Nine Nine” with her 8 -year -old son, who told her that older children in his school began to ask whether his mother was Emmy. “I was like, as well, maybe he should know what this is before children watch it in his chapter.” He believes it is amazing. He is obsessed with Andy [Samberg] Tender [Crews]”

Like in “Brooklyn”, follow the new Fumero “Grosse Pointe” a similar approach to Birdie to treat sweat and race. “I think it is important for her to be Latina-not only because I play her, but I think that she is a character that we have not necessarily seen before,” said Fumero, indicating that her personality is a rich and older woman.

“I am proud that the characters I play are not necessarily leading them [their ethnicity]Fumero said. “Sometimes this is fine in time, place and context, but it is really important to show characters from all different backgrounds without being the center of their characters.”

But when they were first thrown into the movie “Brooklyn” in 2013, Fumero and her star Stephanie Patries, a Colombian and Bolivia origin, were convinced that one of them would be launched, because there was rarely a presentation with pioneering Latinians. So before photographing the pilot, although it looked completely different, Fumero and Beatriz agreed to design their hair differently.

“We haven’t seen each other as a competition,” Fumero said. “We were like, no, we are in this together. How do we keep both of us? It was so completely,” make sure that we really look different, make sure our personality really different, and make sure everything is distinct so that they cannot get rid of us. “

This initial association has turned into a lifetime friendship, with Fumero and Beatriz recent “better.”

“I am really grateful for being one of my closest friends and collaborators,” said Fumero. “It is just a huge gift that” Brooklyn “gave me.

A feeling of society has always been found in the Fumero Spirit Center. When she was twenty -two, she worked with the “Jin The Virgin” star, Jenna Rodriguez – who later presented her to Bayatese – in an unprecedented movie. The two often continue about the stereotypes that are asked to test.

But by falsifying more feasible communications with other Latinists in Hollywood, Fumero takes a practical approach. “We must try to get more things, and more green things,” Fumero said. “Just try to take some of this strength in the industry to our society.”
