‘Merica Constantly Shows Its True Colors’: Racist Fans Threatened to Cut Off Olivia Wilde’s Lips and Kill Her for Kissing ‘House’ Co-Star Omar Epps

Olivia Wilde is opening up her time on the cast of “House,” where she played Dr. Remy Hadley, a smart, bisexual, and — at times — rebellious internal medicine doctor. She built up a fanbase after joining the show in 2004 for its fourth season and stayed on as a recurring character until its final season in 2008.  Despite having that fan base, Wilde says she also had haters, some of which spewed racial threats after her character shared a kiss with a Black doctor named Dr. Eric Foreman — played by Omar Epps.  According to Variety on Dec. 8, Wilde spoke about that experience at the Red Sea International Film Festival in Saudi Arabia. She said there were “insane death threats constantly coming into the studios,” which led to the crew taking extra precautions by hiring security. This is not her first time speaking out about the heinous reactions she and Epps endured. As reported by the New Zealand Herald, Wilde spoke to Cosmopolitan in 2011 about how viewers reacted to the kiss, saying, “We got a lot of hate mail for that,” she says. ctors Omar Epps and Olivia Wilde attend Fox’s “House” 100th Episode Party & NAMI...
