Suzanne Somers: From Equal Pay Advocate to Fondly Remembered Co-Star
TL;DR
Suzanne Somers, known for her role as Chrissy Snow on "Three's Company," was fired from the show after demanding equal pay and a percentage of profits. Undeterred, she went on to build a successful fitness brand centered around the ThighMaster, earning nearly $300 million from the device alone. Despite facing backlash and being labeled as "trouble," Somers persevered and became a powerful female voice in the industry. She passed away at the age of 76 after a long battle with cancer.
