My advice is toughen up, work hard. Start taking responsibility for yourself. Stop being so offended.
While people loved me in Tashan-E-Ishq,’ there were some who felt that since I am a Punjabi, I managed to get it right. The actor in me was really offended. So I took up Dil Se Dil Tak,’ as I had to play a Gujarati girl in it.
In 2013, the week before I dropped ‘Crenshaw,’ ‘Complex’ wrote an article that said that Nipsey Hussle is one of the top 25 underperforming artists. I was so offended that I responded with my own opinion about these journalists – their point of view is not validated in our culture.
I came to L.A. with confidence in my craft, and I was very offended when I didn’t get a part. It took me awhile to understand that it is not always about your acting.
I’ve always been fascinated by the difference between the jokes you can tell your friends but you can’t tell to an audience. There’s a fine line you have to tread because you don’t know who is out there in the auditorium. A lot of people are too easily offended.
I don’t think I’ve spawned a nation of Davinas. We have Kylies and Britneys but Davinas have missed out. Should I be offended? That is the question.
Obama has no way to conceal that Osama was executed in front of his children and wives, who are now under the custody of the authorities of Pakistan, a Muslim country of almost 200 million inhabitants, whose laws have been violated, its national dignity offended, and its religious traditions desecrated.
There is a difference between being offended and being prejudiced and even being bigoted against. There’s a difference between that and racism.
There’s a way I could have done things differently. I know that. If I offended anyone along the way, I do apologize.
We’ve reached a point where people are actually afraid to talk about what they want to say, because somebody might be offended. We’ve got to get over this sensitivity and it keeps people from saying what they really believe.
People, I think, are more interested in being offended than getting to the heart of a situation. And to go after comedians to me is so counterproductive, because comedy is kind of a medicine.
John Kerry didn’t out me, nor did he offend or attack me by calling me a lesbian. I certainly couldn’t be offended by the truth.
I am so honest that at times people get offended by what I say. In our industry, truth is not really appreciated. I love to be of my own. I try spending quality time with my family, my two very close friends and my pet Liam.
It is truly appalling for Senator Mark Kirk to equate the Obama Administration’s diplomacy with Nazi appeasement. As a Jewish-American, I am offended.
People are afraid to be themselves because people are afraid to be recorded. Everything is being recorded, and everyone is so sensitive. You say something; a section of people will be offended. It’s so annoying; you got to be completely censored.
When was the last time you were super offended? I might be like, ‘That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard!’ Or, ‘It’s not my thing,’ or, ‘It was a stupid joke.’ But there’s such a sensitivity now. Political correctness has become really insidious.
To this day, I still get people calling me Aunt Becky, and I’m not offended by that at all. ‘Full House’ has afforded me wonderful opportunities in my career.
My delivery can be intense, but it’s intense because I need to be heard. I know that people don’t usually listen, as it relates to constructive criticism, without getting offended. So, I speak my mind with an attitude that I don’t care if you get offended; I just want you to get the message.

Everyone has a crazy old lady in their family like ‘Mama.’ No one ever comes up to me and says ‘Mama’ is just like them, so no one is ever offended by her. Even young people like to laugh at her. I think she helps kids appreciate their own grandmothers more.
Some people were offended by a show about cougars.
I’m offended by things and take pathetic little stands against them.
I’ve undoubtedly offended people, but in the end, I’ve learned the people that will understand are the people I want to connect to, anyway.
I feel offended when people bring up my four marriages. I was 19 when I first got married and I thought it would be for ever. But each of my marriages has added to my life and helped form me as a human being.
We live in this era where we really enjoy being offended, although only on the Internet. I don’t know how beneficial it is. I wonder if we live in an age where we don’t have power, yet somehow feel we have virtual power. But I feel like it’s a distraction from real life.
I was totally offended when people said we were like *Nsync. I’ve got nothing against them. I know those guys. But comparing us was lame. It was apples and oranges.
If you’re offended, it’s your problem.
No man is offended by another man’s admiration of the woman he loves; it is the woman only who can make it a torment.
It’s okay if someone is disgusted or offended by my performance. It’s just a performance.
I can’t get too offended when somebody parodies me.
