“Mom” star Anna Faris acknowledged that “of course it hurts” how show creator Chuck Lorre wrote about her in his recent memoir, in which he said he was “in fact, correct” about his initial reluctance to hire the actress. “Yikes,” she wrote in a statement posted on Instagram Thursday. “Yes, I read a few things. I really didn’t see that coming. Of course it hurts. Chuck gave me a job I loved, and for seven years I never took a day of it for granted. I’m proud of what we made together, and nothing changes how grateful I am for those people and those years.”
