Shameless star Emma Kenney did not hold back when talking about her former costar Emmy Rossum.
The actress, 22, said on the newest episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast that Rossum, 35, made her 'anxious' when she was on set.
She also told host Alex Cooper that Emmy could turn her 'bad day' into everyone's problem.
The Conners star even said the two had not 'spoken in years' after Rossum left the show two seasons before its finale in 2019.

Although Shameless, which is based on the British TV series of the same name, features an ensemble cast, Rossum and William H Macy had the lead roles.
Rossum and Kenney were both with the series from the first season, but the Phantom Of The Opera star departed after season nine, while Kenney continued on for the show's final two seasons.
Although Kenney said that the show's set was initially 'weird' once her costar had left, she thought it ultimately gained a more 'positive' vibe without her.
According to her, Rossum's negative moods could infect the rest of the cast and crew.
'It was weird at first for sure but it also… the set became more of a positive place, I’m not gonna lie,' she said. 'I remember pre [Rossum] leaving, I’d go to set some days and I’d be very anxious about having a scene with her because if she had a bad day, she made it a bad day for everybody.'
A representative for Rossum didn't respond to a request for comment.

Emma added that the two had what felt like a 'sister relationship,' though she said it was 'in good and bad ways.'
She said Emmy would switch between acting like a 'good influence' and other times when she would give her 'not the best advice.'
