Hilarie Burton and Sophia Bush claim this photo shoot wasn’t picture-perfect. Two actresses, who both appeared in television show One Tree Hill have come out with allegations regarding time they appeared on Maxim magazine cover in November 2006 alongside Danneel Ackles. Bush and Burton claim that they were coerced into taking part in shoot.
“We got told we had to do it,” Bush said during November 27 episode of Drama Queens podcast. “I literally got told if you do not go and shoot this cover with your co-stars, we will guarantee you that you will never be let out for a press day, a movie, an event, or any of your charities. We will keep you here forever.” Burton also claims that other means of pressure were employed against them in addition to threat against Bush. During podcast session, 40-year-old claimed that she was made to feel as though their coworkers’ jobs were also in jeopardy.
“I remember getting pulled into production office,” Burton recalled, “I sat on floor while our boss was on couch as we were given this very friendly soft pitch that was, ‘Look all other shows have been on cover of every single magazine and no one wants you guys. No one wants you and you finally have someone that wants you and you’re really going to turn your nose up at that?”–Agencies
