The title character in Netflix's latest original series Girlboss is far from TV's average leading lady. Inspired by fashion mogul Sophia Amoruso and her book of the same name, the dark comedy stars Britt Robertson in the lead role. In the series, which launched Friday, Sophia is at times selfish, ruthless and "nasty" as Robertson admits to The Hollywood Reporter ? a nod to Amoruso's real-life clothing line, Nasty Gal. Robertson tells THR of her unique character, "They want to see women in a pretty package. It freaks a lot of people out."
