Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Maya addressed Kristen response, saying, "I saw that. I mean, if that's how she (Kristen) feels...I don't know, I feel like people are always looking for some sort of answer from me, like, it's not up to me."

Maya, who is currently promoting the second season of her show Loot, added, "We had the best time doing it, so I feel like I get it."

Melissa also recalled some of her favourite and memorable moments from working on the set.

"Just being around that many funny people where truly it was like people dropping to the ground because we couldn't get air in," she continued.

Melissa added, "From a distance, it must have looked like we all had food poisoning because there was just times where we'd be like...You can't be around that group of humans and not just be beside yourself."
