Summary

Fran Drescher might be “just a girl from Queens” (her words!), but she is no pushover. This is what she tells us in this candid interview (with her rescue pup by her side). Chloe and Chioma ask about how she became the president of the SAG-AFTRA union, what it’s like leading the strikes, what her favorite outfits were on “The Nanny,” and if there is a bigger political run in her future.
