Melissa McCarthy: Diva on Mike & Molly set

OHMYGOSSIP — Melissa McCarthy is turning into a giant diva on the set of her hit TV show Mike & Molly. According to a new report, the actress — who’s enjoyed success on the big screen with Bridesmaids — is, apparently, getting a little ahead of herself.

“Melissa’s head has swollen to epic proportions,” revealed a Hollywood source. “She complains about the quality of scripts and grumbled about the direction the show is going in. She came back this season with a huge chip on her shoulder, and it’s creating a lot of tension and bad feelings on the set.

“She’s suddenly one of hottest actresses in town and she’s been inundated with films scripts.

“The sky’s the limit for her professionally, and she feels TV is holding her back from superstardom. It’s obvious she wants out of Mike & Molly now.

“She actually approached producers to see if she could get out of the contract of even buy her way out… but Mike & Molly is a huge hit for the network, and they certainly aren’t going to let their biggest draw walk away from it.”
