“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.
