Relationships between celebrities have been a major talking point in entertainment ever since popular culture surfaced. The question of who’s dating who in Hollywood has helped drive people’s careers by keeping them in the public eye. However, some relationships fail to maintain strength through such high levels of personal invasion and scrutiny.
While journalists and gossip columnists can be wrong about their speculations, sometimes they are right. Unfortunately, this relentless fodder can lead to the breakdown of celebrity relationships. Take Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, for example. Or Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. However, there are some solid relationships that have withstood the test of time. Although they are not in a romantic relationship, Sarah Paulson and Pedro Pascal are a perfect example of how two high-profile figures can stay friends in a challenging environment.
The Long History of Sarah Paulson and Pedro Pascal’s Friendship
Pedro Pascal moved to New York in 1993 to pursue a career in acting. After settling in to city life, he attended the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts. It was here where he would gain the skills to perfect his craft. Furthermore, it was also where he would meet Sarah Paulson for the first time and strike up a unique bond. When speaking with Esquire, Paulson shed some light on the dynamic of their friendship. Like many budding actors, Pascal was struggling to keep his head above water as he chased his dream. But Paulson was there to give him a helping hand. She told Esquire: “He’s talked about this publicly, but there were times when I would give him my per diem from a job I was working on so that he could have money to feed himself.”
It was this kind of support that gave Pascal the opportunity to keep pursuing his dream. He stated that if he wasn’t famous by the time he was 29, he would give up acting. Fortunately that didn’t happen, and he became a global superstar. The same can be said for Paulson too. As each other their careers have continued to take off, they have stayed close friends to this day.
