Laverne Cox, known for her role in 'Orange Is the New Black,' claims she has lost 90% of her income in recent years. She attributes this decline to the Trump administration's policies targeting gender ideology and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. Cox made these remarks while promoting her new memoir, 'Transcendent.'

Characters
Piper Chapman · Taylor Schilling · debut [S1E1✓]
An upper-middle-class woman arrives at Litchfield for a drug-related crime from her past, initially struggling to adapt but gradually becoming harder-edged and morally compromised. Her on-again, off-again relationship with Alex Vause drives much of the early series. She is released in Season 6 and ultimately chooses to build her life near Alex.
Alex Vause · Laura Prepon · debut [S1E1✓]
A drug cartel operative whose testimony originally sent Piper to prison. Alex's volatile relationship with Piper anchors the series. She returns to Litchfield in Season 3, survives an assassination attempt, and endures the riot. In the finale she is transferred to Ohio but ultimately stays connected to Piper.
Poussey Washington · Samira Wiley · debut [S1E2✓]
An educated, kind, and world-traveled young woman imprisoned for a nonviolent drug offense. Her best friendship with Taystee and her romance with Brook Soso in Seasons 3-4 are central to her arc. Her death at the hands of CO Bayley during a peaceful protest in Season 4 is the series' most devastating turning point.
Tasha 'Taystee' Jefferson · Danielle Brooks · debut [S1~]
Taystee is Poussey's best friend and one of Litchfield's most charismatic inmates. She is released in Season 1 but voluntarily returns. In Season 5 she leads negotiations during the riot. After Poussey's death becomes a rallying cause, she is wrongfully convicted of Piscatella's murder. In the finale she channels her grief into the Poussey Washington Fund.
Red (Galina Reznikov) · Kate Mulgrew · debut [S1E1✓]
The formidable kitchen head who functions as a mother figure to her prison family. She holds and loses power over the kitchen, wages war against Vee in Season 2, discovers a greenhouse smuggling tunnel, and is brutally assaulted by CO Piscatella during the Season 5 riot.
Nicky Nichols · Natasha Lyonne · debut [S1E1✓]
A sardonic recovering addict who is part of Red's prison family. She maintains sobriety for years, harbors complicated feelings for Lorna, and relapses when she returns from maximum security in Season 4.
Lorna Morello · Yael Stone · debut [S1E1✓]
A romantic and imaginative inmate whose cheerful exterior conceals a delusional inner life. Imprisoned for stalking and planting a bomb under a man's fiancee's car, she presents her obsession as a love story. She marries a pen pal in Season 3 and suffers the death of her infant son in Season 7.
Tiffany 'Pennsatucky' Doggett · Taryn Manning · debut [S1~]
A volatile born-again Christian inmate whose fundamentalism and rage make her dangerous early on. Over subsequent seasons she is humanized — especially as a rape survivor in Season 3. She works toward her GED in Season 7 and dies by overdose in the penultimate episode, tragically unaware she had passed the exam.
Dayanara 'Daya' Diaz · Dascha Polanco · debut [S1E1✓]
An artistic young woman who discovers her mother Aleida is also incarcerated at Litchfield. Her secret pregnancy with CO Bennett's child anchors Seasons 1-3. After Bennett abandons her, her arc darkens steadily through the riot and into a drug-dealing role in Season 7.
Yvonne 'Vee' Parker · Lorraine Toussaint · debut [S2E2✓]
A calculating former drug boss who arrives in Season 2 and rapidly builds a power base by manipulating inmates' loyalties, particularly Taystee and Suzanne. She attacks Red and nearly escapes before being killed by Rosa.
Suzanne 'Crazy Eyes' Warren · Uzo Aduba · debut [S1E1✓]
An intensely loyal and emotionally volatile inmate with a vivid inner creative life. Her mental health is a constant thread, exploited by Vee and worsened by the riot's fallout.
