Even for an actor, you're an egomaniac!

Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker accuses someone of exceptional vanity while also taking a swipe at actors generally. Even within a profession the speaker presents as self-absorbed, this person supposedly stands out. The insult works twice: it attacks the individual and invokes an unflattering stereotype about their profession.
