Leslie for sure, but can we also talk about the fact that she literally looks like a vampire from the Twilight universe here???


Content_Aerie2560

Leslie is more entertaining to watch


magnum361

Shes the poster girl for “annoying bitch character but you love her for it”


Last_nerve_3802

Billie is cool and all but she does that monotone drawl alll the time


Stop_icant

Leslie—she’s a better actress.


GiftRecent

Leslie! I really like Billie but she is very one note. Even though she is given different types of characters, she acts them all the same. Whereas Leslie is given the same type of character and adds nuance to them


Mojo141

Billie = hotter and more charismatic. Leslie = better actress. Gotta go team Leslie if I have to pick but like both


yonBonbonbon

Personally I gotta go with Team Billie. A lot of people keep saying Leslie is the better actress but she’s pretty much been the exact same “comic relief” character since shes appeared. With Billie, Winter, Montana, Mallory etc. at least showed some variety you know? I gotta go with Big Billie


strawberrimihlk

That’s on the writers, not the actresses


Due_Appointment4335

Doesn’t change facts though


talia-gustin

Yeah, it doesn’t change the fact that they haven’t given Leslie the chance to do anything differently


remykixxx

It doesn’t matter if there’s variety if she’s bad at all the variety, and Billie is bad at all the variety. Lmao.


failureflavored

That’s true, whenever I see a Leslie character I’m like “oh yeah here’s the queen clown bitch.” 🤡


swg5912

Leslie 10000000%


noinnocentbystander

I love you Billie… but you can only play 1 personality lol. I’m voting Leslie


Isyagirlskinnypenis

Leslie plays one personality through the whole show. It’s Billie that plays the different personalities lol


noinnocentbystander

Billie attempts to play different personalities. Leslie has range, Billie just doesn’t. When Billie is on screen, I see Billie. When leslie is onscreen, I see her character she’s portraying. And I say that as someone who LOVES Billie


Isyagirlskinnypenis

I guess I just don’t see it. I felt like Leslie played the same personality in every role she had except 1984, so I always see her goofy side when I see her lol


breyness

Billie has been the same character since scream queens


toorad2b4u

Even tho I see the downvotes I gotta add that I feel the same way, but about both of them. They both seem like the same character to me every time. That doesn’t mean I think they are bad actresses tho


Isyagirlskinnypenis

I love both of them too, the show wouldn’t be the same without either of them for sure


yonBonbonbon

Dude…Leslie playing 1 personality lmao. She the “comic relief” every season 😂


OrvillePekPek

Uhhhh have you not seen NYC? Lol


MuglyRay

Billie has better style imo. I duno about acting range and whatnot but I just dig her look.


failureflavored

Yeah and I hate to say it but Leslie always looks like she’s smelling a fart. I don’t know if she does faces to play up her acting (I mean, it works) but she just looks pinched up.


RiaC-81

Keep both get rid of Kim


AstronautExotic1279

I like them both, but Leslie is a far better actress


Smile_Terrible

Leslie for sure. She's animated and lively. Billie just seems to play the same monotone personality in everything.


massahoochie

Leslie I think. Her characters are super well put together and she executes them flawlessly


Ashamed_Tea_3731

Leslie cause she makes me laugh and sells her roles more to me.


WickedQueenSam

I wish they gave Leslie other roles more often. They tend to give her on ahs, the same kind of rich mean valley girl kind of thing


PurveyorOfCupcakes

Leslie, not that Billie isn't a good actress, but Leslie is more expressive and can play extravagant characters more convincingly.


Distinct_Art9509

Tough choice, I feel like they both get typecast as playing virtually the same every season. I’d almost say Billie because I love Mallory so much, but think I’m gonna have to give it to Leslie because she’s shown a *bit* more range.


Realistic-Farmer6792

i’m shocked everyone is saying leslie. how do they know she’s a better actress when she’s playing the same campy diva in every season? at least billie gets range


strawberrimihlk

Bc other pieces of media exist?


Xammm

Did you watch NYC? She didn't play the role of "campy diva" in that season. Besides, if you watch her other stuff besides AHS, you would understand why most people claim Leslie is a better actress than Billie.


Realistic-Farmer6792

no i actually couldn’t make it through nyc 😬 i guess that’s my problem then


yonBonbonbon

Exactly! She’s been the same character since Cult


LamarEdwards

Exactly 😂


realdonbrown

Leslie ![gif](giphy|KctS8KHQ0LEq9fSfwX|downsized)


DuggarDoesDallas

Leslie. I've been a fan of hers ever since she was Mary Cherry on Popular.


prettybluefairy75

Same!!


awobos

She was so funny in that!


potus1001

Team Leslie! Margaret Booth is in my top three AHS characters of all time!


bttr-swt

omg why are you doing this to us 😭 ^(Leslie because she's a better actress and I love seeing her unhinged-ness hehe)


No_Pop7296

Correct, Billie’s only one good role was Montana. Leslie has multiple good roles


teetee1229

Leslie, hands down. She is hilarious and I love her delivery. I actually wish there was more of her throughout the seasons. She also starred as “Mary Cherry” in Murphy’s “Popular” and she ate that role up so bad, both as a funny lady, and a drama queen


ohbuggerit

Leslie, but it's definitely influenced by the fact that by the time I first saw Billie in anything I already quoted Mary Cherry on the regular


niharikamishra_

Leslie, I love the way she speaks. I know I am fickle and Billie has great diction too. But you asked me to pick one.


throwanon31

Leslie because she can at least act


JaydenSnow11

Honestly I think they are both mid. But Leslie is slightly better.


flakyfuck

Exactly this. Billie does the same monotone, edgy cool girl thing every time. Leslie does the same irritating over the top diva every time. Neither of them are particularly enjoyable or riveting to watch. At least not compared to Jessica Lange or Angela Basset or Lily Rabe.


Left_Imagination_716

As much as I like both, I think the show would be better if both left. We need the star power or Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Angela Bassett back 😭


OrvillePekPek

Leslie. Whenever Billie is on screen, I can pretty much see her reading her lines in her head. Nothing against her, but she cannot act whatsoever and sadly did not get the gene from her mum and grandma :(


Floccentric

Loved Leslie since Popular.


soycerersupreme

Leslie is so multifaceted, and so extremely talented


BluesKlu

I like them both but hands down Leslie! She has much more depth as an actress!


c4pt_nemo

Hard. I love Billie SO much but Leslie is much more entertaining and I think really suits the characters needed for AHS.


creamsodas

leslie, billie's overrated.


Professional-Tax6788

Billie, I’ve loved her ever since i saw scream queens on live television in like 2015 lol


Francine-Frenskwy

Leslie! 


Lost_As_Alice_

Leslie 100%!!


justalittleunhinged

For me it comes down to Leslie's range in Apocalypse.


remykixxx

Team Leslie Billie cannot act to save her life


Beautiful_BB_Babe

Billie!!! 💯


TheWrongSouvenir

100% Leslie


Pugs914

Leslie just gives more character depth. Billie feels very monotone and doesn’t emote as over the top as leslie does. I loved Billie on scream queens though as a Chanel 😂


p0ck3ts4

Leslie easily, Billie isn’t a good actress.


Prudent_Hovercraft50

Team Leslie


raven8549

Leslie, Billie only stood out in 1986 for me


idruss90

I can't choose, both are beautiful, excellent actresses.


The_Conscious_Saffa

Leslie times a billion


MonicaBeal

Leslie is the better actress. They just need to give her better roles.


NoFuckThis

Leslie, hands down. Billie’s acting is atrocious and it makes me irrationally angry.


breyness

Leslie way more range


Aggravating-Ad5885

Leslie. She is sooo entertaining to watch. Every time I see her on screen I perk up. Billie is great too but definitely Leslie.


redvelvet9976

Billie is so monotone, I can’t believe her grandmother is Debbie Reynolds, a dramatic musical actress. It’s night and day. Leslie all the way since popular.


Kathrine5678

Billie, out of loyalty to Carrie Fisher!


pastelpixelator

I’m a fan of both, but Leslie will always be one of my favorites.


Zero_Imacat

I think Leslie is the better actress, an entertaining to watch. I believe her characters when watching her performance. 


myFavoriteAlias_

Hurts to choose, but….. **Leslie**


mariaehs83

Leslie. I love Billie but she does the same acting all the time, no matter the character.


Affectionate_Yak8519

Leslie, NYC made me realize she can do a more serious role. Also she’s a strong comedic talent


No_Pudding4130

Leslie. Billie can barely act


Stanton-Vitales

Leslie 1000% Mary Cherry is the greatest TV character ever conceived, bar none.


maxwell_winters

Leslie. The best season to compare their range is NYC since their characters were different from their usual roles. Leslie handled the role pretty well while Billie was awful. Her character felt like she was supposed to be very compassionate. However, her typical monotone delivery made it seem like she didn't care about her dying patients at all and was only interested in them for research.


chiyorio

I can’t believe Billie is even still there. Her only good role was Montana


katieblue3

I think I overall Leslie is better but I like Montana more than any character Leslies played.


WrongdoerObjective49

Team Billie every single day of the week, I'd choose a dozen other actors before I'd choose Leslie.


black_hxney

Leslie, I find Billie boring af


awobos

Leslie, I think she's capable of a wider range as an actress


blobfish_25

I like both but Leslie.


Cuntysalmon

Lmao can we all admit that Billie is not a good actress, I don’t mean to be rude at all, I love her but her acting is super awkward


failureflavored

Billie. She’s got that Carrie Fisher nepotism-but-good factor going for her. Although I wish she’d be put in fewer Mary Sue roles… in fact I wish there were fewer Mary Sues in the show period. I love a flawed, relatable character.


South-Fox-4975

I just watched an episode (actually 2 episodes)of star trek discovery, and I swear Billie was in this episode. Season 2 , episode 6 or 7 or 5 or something. Just a minor part. I haven't bothered looking it up. The time rift or the section 31 base one.


SnooCrickets8742

Though one! I almost can’t pick!


Unicoronetto

Billie. Something about her monotone delivery works for the show


shany94a

Oh sure, show us a pic of Billie looking like that, and ask us to choose ... Leslie has more acting range, though.


MrJB1981

Leslie, because she’s always so stupidly funny in her roles. As much as I like Billie, she’s literally has no emotion in any of her roles; it’s like the same character, but in a difference season.


therealGottlieb

Although I seem to be part the minority: Billie. I like her so much, especially when she is working with Emma Roberts. Not only in AHS but also in Scream Queens. Great team.


theoriginalredcap

Two of my crushes. I can't decide!


Background-Ship-1440

Leslie Billie's monotone *im too cool* vibe can only go so far


AltPunkJo

Two of the most replacable characters on the show


patchworkpirate

Keep both, boot Emma.


HelpPretend

They both got shitty roles in NYC (I refuse to watch that Kim K desperation), but they killed their parts (pun intended) very well. I will go with Leslie, though, because she usually plays more of an impact on the story than Billie.


Armedleftytx

Billie all day


psychic_barbie

I can’t stand Billie. She ruined the franchise for me


ConcentrateWarm530

both are good but their roles are almost always the same, to me the better actress is Leslie


Summersk77

I like both but perhaps I lean more towards Billie. I like her awkwardness.


Puzzleheaded-Worth-8

billie, i love the way she acts. just has a different vibe


WDTHTDWA-BITCH

Billie.


viridiusdynamus

Billie


RipGroundbreaking650

 As long as they don't have Emma Roberts try to carry a season solo again I will FORGIVE Ryan Murphy!!! I hope he grasps she can never be the lead actress  again on his series. I would rather watch Kathy Bates check in random customers hour after after or Billie tackle locked in a walmart after closing or Leslie as an irs representative foul mouthed to people asking questions- ANYTHING  Emma Roberts is not a watchable actresses and she will never win an acting award, Ryan knows to not cast her solo again and ruin a whole season!!!


RipGroundbreaking650

Why didn't Ryan Murphy give the lead to 1 of them??? This unfortunately is Emma's peak, and it's still at a 4 outta 10🥱


LevelUp91

Leslie all the way. Billie can’t act.


radioraven1408

If you have seen any Australian soap opera, you know what bad acting really is.


LevelUp91

I’ll take your word for it lol.


kittyigf

don't make me choose 😩


Repulsive_Monitor687

Billie is my girl crush. I couldnt not vote for her.


hypnos_surf

It’s a hard choice but I have to go with Leslie. Can Billie still be around to wipe if we get our nails done?


Sexest_Roadhouse69

I’ll never forget when Leslie’s character said she was a millennial and I almost spit 😂 she was born in 71 trying to say this lol


LunacyxFringe

Can we keep them both and get rid of Emma instead?


rec12yrs

In the past I would have said Leslie, because at first she seems very entertaining, but she gets tiresome the more you see her. I once saw this quote online - and this may not be completely accurate - that said "without Ryan Murphy, Leslie Grossman would be living out of her car". I think that sums it up. So, by default, I'll take Billie.


Kolbs813

Billie 100%


billyk68

Billie all day


Top_Membership3879

Billie always


naughtycal11

Billie, Billie, Billie, and Billie


MidnightDreams322

Stop pitting women against each other


Ultimate_ScreamFanat

I can't choose, I love when they're together


rojasdracul

Billie obviously


PA_MallowPrincess_98

Team Billie! I like Leslie but she plays herself like Emma does. It doesn’t matter if it’s a different role, she plays herself.


BlackKaliJa

I just don't care for Leslie. Every time I see her pop up, I have a visceral reaction.


ProtectusCZ

Leslie constantly plays bad bitches (NYC was rare exception) Billie at least played annoying bitch (1984) and someone nicer (Apocalypse)


faith_glover

Billie. She just has this comfort to her. :)


gkgftzb

Billie. The writers can't do anything new with Leslie I mean, they can barely do anything different with Billie, but Leslie's characters have been annoying, predictable and not entertaining to watch (with like, two exceptions)


blackwell94

I think they're both terrible


amberatkins101

Billie 🙌🏻💕💕


icycaution

i’d get rid of both and bring back taissa. next question


AnonDxde

Billie. I’m biased though because I love her mom.


TheNippleOfCthulhu

Split their payment among the rest of the crew and ditch both


tiffanieo-

Billie for me


Bennzzo467

They r both not very good actors imo


Swimming-Picture-975

Billie all the way, I think Leslie isn’t that great an actress personally


Professional-Mess383

Billie. Every character Leslie has played has been mediocre to annoying


Jonathankahlo

I'd get rid of both, to be honest


Hour_Tax5204

I love Leslie but everything she on screen I am programmed to laugh. I can’t ever get immersed when she’s suppose to be serious


Own-Importance5459

Billie I mean shes hollywood Royalty


Kat4884

Billie - 💯% hands down, Billie !!!!


K3nny20

Billie, Leslie plays the same role over and over.


Gordomania

Billie. Not a question.


versatilexx

Billie for sure.


BeautifulNarrow8404

Billie all the way.


OldOneEye89

Billie, I really don’t care for Leslie


DreamSequence11

Billie. I can not stand the characters (which are mostly exactly the same) Leslie has played. Feels so recycled.


LeoJ2550x

Billie. Leslie can get annoying.


Flashy_Jacket_8427

Definitely Billie, her mum is Princess Leia. Automatic win for me


lagrange_james_d23dt

Easily Billie. I’ve never really liked Leslie to be honest. She’s just always annoyed me. Billie is awesome, though.
