Dianne Wiest Rent - Rent issues aren't common in the high spending celebrity circles, but 66-year-old Dianne Wiest has proven to be an exception after she revealed that she is at the point of losing her New York apartment because she is struggling to pay the rent.
Wiest, who made the revelation during an interview with The New York Times alongside Rasheeda Speaking co-star Tonya Pinkins, noted that she has struggled to generate money from acting in movies because she has been typecasted in the "nice mom" role.
Although Wiest admits that she has been offered some roles, she notes that she has had to turn them down because she didn't think they were a good fit. "I think that it it's meant to happen, it will happen," she says."Which is I guess a real sign of stupidity."
Wiest, who won several honors for her role in Hannah and Her Sisters and Bullets over Broadway, has been living in an apartment on a 13-storey complex in Upper West Side for some years now. In 2011, she made news after it was revealed that she and other tenants in the property were suing the landlord for apparently over charging them rent. Back then, the rent they were reportedly being forced to pay was $7,290. Currently, the rent of an apartment in the complex is estimated to be at least over $5,000.
Despite struggling to get movie roles, Wiest admits that she has not faced the same problems with regard to theater acting. Her current theater gig - Rasheeda Speaking - centers around the life of a young African-American woman, who is faced with troubles in her workplace.
