President Donald Trump does not stop giving something to talk about. After being acquitted of the charges of abuse of power and obstruction of his impeachment in the US Senate, he is now being the subject of conversation for a change that he would have required in the 90s to participate in the television show The Nanny.

According to the protagonist of that American comedy, Fran Drescher, the writers had to change the script to please the now president who demanded to be described as a multi-millionaire in the scene he recorded.

In an interview on the Late Night with Seth Meyers show, the 62-year-old actress revealed that in the scene of Trump, in a 1996 episode, her wealth was alluded to, as well as that of the series' protagonist, played by actor Charles Shaughenessy.

"I was in this scene and I said to both of them, 'Oh, all of you millionaires are the same,'" said Drescher, who played a babysitter on the show. "And Peter [Marc Jacobson] - now my gay ex-husband - received a note from his assistant, Donald Trump's assistant, which said: 'Mr. Trump is not a millionaire. He is a billionaire and we would like him to change the script. '”

However, the actress did not see it necessary to specify the size of Trump's fortune since her character would never do something like that, she revealed.

"Because I know Fran would have, you know, described all the wealthy as millionaires. But saying billionaire [billionaire] seemed like a very specific option, "he said.

In the end, the production and Trump reached a midpoint and during the scene the actress described him as a zillionary - a humorous term that in English describes someone who has an incalculable fortune. "He said he was fine," said the actress of the change.
