Former NBC President Wanted Debra Messing's 'Will & Grace' Character to Have Bigger Breasts, Actress Says

Messing refused to wear chicken cutlets provided for her first wardrobe fitting to make her character's chest appear larger.
Messing challenged the executive to tell her to her face that her breasts needed to be bigger.
Messing had previously struggled with her weight and body image during the show's original run.
The show broke barriers as one of the first network shows focused on openly gay main characters.
An unaired episode of the show featured a homophobic slur that caused sponsors to pull out.
