Gabrielle Union is opening up about her toughest moments in Hollywood.

The actress opened up about her toughest moments in Hollywood during Sunday's"Minding Her Business" panel discussion at the virtual 2020 film festival, revealing her exit from"America's Got Talent" as one of her most difficult business dealings to date.

"But that whole process was really brutal and knowing that I brought my team into that, it just sucked," she said.Union said through her production company and other business collaborations, she wants to provide a space that fills a void in the industry "where I feel like the voices of marginalized folks have not been traditionally centered or amplified."

"We face a lot of rejection in this business," she said. "Anytime someone says yes to us you get so excited, because we don't hear yes that often, and sometimes those yeses are masking a host of trouble and problematic behavior. … Perhaps you don't want to be someone's racial guinea pig."
