Singer and childhood actress Jennette McCurdy opened up in her new book about the alleged abuses she faced on the set of Nickelodeon’s “iCarly” by an unnamed adult crew member.
The New York Post reported,
McCurdy, 30, detailed many of the problems she faced while appearing on her hit TV show “iCarly” in her upcoming memoir, “I’m Glad My Mom Died,” including one alleged incident where she was photographed in a bikini as a teen during a wardrobe fitting.
The shoot with an unidentified person — whom she called the “Creator” — also reportedly pressured her to drink alcohol when she was just a teenager on the network.
Her mom Debra, who died in 2013, said moments like this were simply the consequences of fame. “Everyone wants what you have,” Debra reportedly said.
“My whole childhood and adolescence were very exploited,” McCurdy told the New York Times ahead of her memoir’s release on Aug. 9. “It still gives my nervous system a reaction to say it. There were cases where people had the best intentions and maybe didn’t know what they were doing. And also cases where they did — they knew exactly what they were doing.”
“So Close” singer McCurdy also alleged that she was offered $300,000 in hush money to not publicly speak about her tenure on Nickelodeon.
