Sam After iCarly: "Nickelodeon Tried Paying Me $300K". Instead, She Exposes Them 

))q)q)lqql)

uh ok

I absolutely loved seeing her on The Daily Show talking about this stuff and impressed how she handled herself while talking to Trevor Noah.

awesome report... Greetz from Germany...

Why is "eating disorder" censored?

Its horrible to see no justice

Ain't he dead??

@@Atarxzhii Yes it is. people sometimes or always get in danger

While I'll miss Sam, it's understandable

its kinda """""funny""""" how sam's mother was like her real mother

This is a win for Sam puckett

@@Lowqualitybirdfor jennette mccurdy*

yeah it makes me sad. i don't want a funny actress like her to suffer. i want the rest of her life to be happy.

Good job for you guys

I loved iCarly when I was younger and I’m glad Miranda and Jeanette are both successful in their own ways

That was the worst that allegedly was done to her, right?

Woah…I never thought of it that way that’s so true that completely changed my pov on a few things

Right?! I had this argument with my older cousin that was trying to force her 5yo in to modeling. Why are you making your 5yo get a job when you won't? My cousins husband (who wasn't against it when my cousin brought it up) quickly stepped in and told her it wasn't happening. They divorced not long after that and he has full custody. My neice is 16 now, doesn't care about fashion and hates photos lol. Much to my cousins dismay. My still unemployed cousin.

That's so true! But some shows needs to have kids for kids show like blues clues or something like that but I agree

For real life

Rr but would it still matter if the child wanted be. Or maybe at and older age ?

Orlando Brown doesnt seem so crazy now does he

And the audacity to even victim shame,,

When you watch SVU, her level of “acting” was deeper than ANY other child I ever saw on that show… it was deeply unsettling there was a level of awareness I think other child actors on the show didn’t have

If it hadn’t been her it would’ve been another actor. Stop acting like acting shouldn’t be allowed until the age of 18.

​@@Hey_JamieIt shouldn't be especially considering most child actors end up having trauma and their lives change for the worse

​@@Hey_JamieNo one said that

Ps send money for fridge

And after the mother had died, it came out that ALL 4 children are from an exmarital affair.

​@@Heartcore90one is hard pressed to find a greater example of how truly broken and deluded some people can be, than by reading that email capped off by "send money for new fridge"

The most we should do is show the due respect that yes, someone died, another person has left this life, but that's it

This is something I've always noticed too and was literally just talking about last night. It's far too common for families and media to suddenly "forget" all the bad someone's done and focus on good. Some ppl do not deserve that and pretending "they were so great" just reads like a trauma response to me.

​​@@AshChiCupcak I recently came to this realisation. My cousin (a person who sexually assaulted his sister and 2 of our neices) died 2 weeks ago (he was in prison and died due to unknown circumstances 👀). I was over the moon as were my siblings and other cousins, his sister more than anyone else was happy he was gone. Everyone else was "appalled we could feel this way towards a dead loved one". Tf?! Loved one?! I think not. He was a monster that deserved everything he got.

@@ntfoperative9432 nah if they did horrible things like abuse kids, they do not deserve respect. Even in death.

I agree as I feel this way about my dad He was physically abusive to me when I was a kid and is still verbally and emotionally abusive to me now When he dies I will not feel sad I will feel free People can say all they want "but he's your father" but I will not feel sad about the death of my abuser

No sin goes unpunished. A person will get theirs at the end if it's the next day or 40 years later and probably burning now

I verbally gasped when her mother said “YOU made my cancer come back” that is disgusting

@@angelthedemon1945 ikr!!

No wonder her book is titled "I'm Glad My Mom Died"

You never watched icarly??

I just want to say you worded this incredibly well. I also never watched iCarly or other shows on Nickelodeon growing up, we didn’t have cable and it wasn’t appealing to me either. I was going to say something similar to what you wrote but you articulated it so well that I don’t feel the need to do so also.

yeah i didnt even know that icarly was a show lol

Same!

Yes you are

Agreed. I read about Shirley’s story out of boredom. If you think recent child stars had it bad under people like Dan Schneider, you should read into what Shirley Temple and Judy Garland went through. And this was during the 1930s/40s when mental health and child safety were rarely taken seriously.

If you speak out you're demonized, shunned and made fun of. look at Amber Heard everyone believes Johnny Depp was the one abused and they never listen to the other side..

That’s horrible I send my heart out to you

What happened

@@tiffprendergast what happened to me?

I can relate to some degree. Never had my teeth punched out =(. Whipped badly and beaten as a kid yea. I've forgiven that stuff and really glad to see people like you and Jennette and obviously others are speaking out! =)

I was never a fan of her shows on Nickelodeon. I was too old for Icarly and Sam and Cat when they were airing. But I do feel and understand her pain and am glad she’s in a much better place.

To my understanding. Narcissism and sociopathy are learned so this is presumably us as society failing them. But I wonder if by the time symptoms manifest, they're far to ingrained in their mind to uproot the narcissistic thoughts. Psychopaths on the other hand is genetics so I can only assume the best course of action is removing them from the gene pool. ASAP.

@@JoelHernandez-tz3vk Sometimes, psychopaths can be taught differently if they catch the symptoms early on from what I've heard. Nature vs. nurture, y'know? I'm definitely not a medical expert or a psychologist, but I've seen multiple sources saying that while disorders and psychopathy do run in genetics, they just make them more common? I'm not in any way an expert on this, and just wanted to put this out there, but I can definitely be wrong. One note on the 'removing people from the gene pool' though. Isn't that similar to eugenics? Not allowing people to have kids to get a more favorable gene pool for future generations? I definitely agree, but I feel like it would form into something worse by not allowing "unattractive" people to reproduce, or whoever decides who has kids might not like certain groups, like minorities, religions, or the LGBT community. It's not that you're wrong, but that the world would twist this around to stop people who don't have these issues from having kids.

As the child of a narcissist whose mother used bans and “soft bans” as punishment for those who questioned her parenting, those kids are not okay. Unfortunately, there’s nothing you can do but hope that one day, they get out.

dont forget zoey 101 and Alexa (Nicole)!

What would make you wanna frown at it

Is wild. I now totally understand why she titled the book the way she did... I can't even frown at it.

@ OreliaLatrice Imagine all the child stars who were mistreated by Dan that never opened up about it. Jeanette is just one of many examples.

In many countries you can't use kids this way there are laws.

Emotions are definitely a beast on their own.

Well, the narrator uses a distressing tone when speaking. The video editor has chosen distressing and suspenseful music as the background track. The editor has chosen to use photos to drive the message they want to convey. If you read the book you would probably be less impacted.

I'm so sorry you can relate 😞 I hope you're in a better place now. I will say you won't regret buying the book. I listened to it on Audible (narrated by Jenette) and it was so heartbreaking but also SO empowering. I laughed and cried listening to it.

As the daughter of a survivor of childhood abuse from her mother, it also hits home. She needs help but won't help herself.... which makes healing my own trauma even more difficult. I want to be where she is one day. "I feel vapid and pointless." also resonated with me. Her story gives me hope.

What Episode Was That?

@ DaniS398 Only reason this keeps happening is because producers aren’t held accountable. They’re allowed to get away with things just cause they have money. The solution is to have stricter laws for kids who get into show business and more severe consequences for adults who are inappropriate to them in any way. Because without child stars, there would be no movies and shows for kids to enjoy.

Same. I got diet app commercials 👀

Shakes as meal replacements.

Look at Michael Jackson and Corey Heim and how Corey Failedman latches on to the death of his "friend" for fame and relevance. F**k CF, R.I.P. Corey Heim..

@@lovelimbs4life bless them all

Sadly, a 30 year old dating a 17 or even 16 year old is not illegal in the US, or in many parts of the world. 16 is the age of consent and they refuse to change it because it serves the sickos in hollywood and the government

Dan was awful to the cast of all his shows though right? not just icarly

You are hottt!

all shows come to an end

Agree. I don't understand why no police charges have been filed.

I'm an adult man and I found just hearing about it watching this documentary to be moving and heartbreaking..
