‘Euphoria’ actress Nika King has claimed she’s been unable to pay her rent for six months because of ongoing delays to the show.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nika King can’t afford her rent<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old actress – who plays Leslie Bennett, the mother of Zendaya<\/a>‘s Rye Bennett in the HBO series – admitted she has no idea when season three of the drama will be released but she’s urged her on-screen daughter to “come home” so they can start work as she needs the money.<\/p>\n

Nika shared a clip in Instagram from a recent stand-up comedy set, in which she said: \u201cSeason 3 is coming out \u2026 I don\u2019t know. Don\u2019t ask me. I don\u2019t know. It\u2019s one of those things.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are like, \u2018We need Season 3.\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018I need Season 3, too!\u2019 I haven\u2019t paid my rent in six months, and Zendaya<\/a>\u2019s over in Paris at Fashion Week. <\/p>\n

“I\u2019m like, \u2018Come home! I need you. Mama need you.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\nBut while the audience laughed, Nika insisted she was “serious” about what she said because she hadn’t booked any jobs since landing her role in ‘Euphoria’.<\/p>\n

\nShe added: \u201cI haven\u2019t booked nothing since \u2018Euphoria.\u2019 This is some bull.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI thought my career was on the rise after \u2018Euphoria.\u2019 I thought I was good. It don\u2019t work that way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nSeason two of ‘Euphoria’ ended in February 2022 and production was then delayed on the third season due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. And in July last year, cast member Angus Cloud died from an accidental overdose aged 25.<\/p>\n

\n‘Euphoria’ actress Sydney Sweeney – who plays Cassie Howard – recently spoke of filming the “most disgusting” scene she’s ever had on the show, explaining a special pipe was created for her to convincingly projectile vomit on screen.<\/p>\n

\nSpeaking on YouTube series ‘The Hot Ones’, she said: “They had to create because Sam [Levinson, director] wanted it to be projectile vomit everywhere whereas a lot of films will just have a cup of mushed up anything that they have from the craft team and it’s just mixed with milk and water. It’s the most disgusting thing – you just put it in your mouth and hold it then you puke it up. But Sam didn’t want that, he wanted vomit everywhere. <\/p>\n

\n“They had to get a pump and they had this pipe that they just taped and hid on my body and then they CGI’d it out. It went up my neck and there was a horse bit that I put in my mouth. So, during that scene they’re filling my mouth with throw up and I opened my mouth and it just started shooting out. It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever experienced.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
