Miranda Cosgrove reflects on the relationship with the old co-star

In a new interview with People, Cosgrove reflected as she and McCurdy shared on the set of The Nickelodeon Show.

“We have been made,” said the actress, also pointing her male co-star, Nathan Kress. “I will always like them, and they will always be family for me, because we have grown up together for so many years.”

Cosgrove remembers sailing in the reputation which has become “so both” alongside its two co-stars. She even admitted to having been “decavated” to the idea of ​​leaving public school, but quickly moved her point of view after realizing that the three of them would be educated at home.

“So I feel really lucky to have them,” she said.

After concluding “Icarly”, Cosgrove explained how she had taken the time to explore different parts of herself. More specifically, Cosgrove returned to school to study psychology at the University of Southern California.

“I was trying to find something else that really interested me or that I was going,” said Cosgrove. “And I have the impression that I have never really found that. But I’m always really happy to have done it, because I think I would always have wondered if there was something else.”

Cosgrove then talked about McCurdy, who left playing behind years before publishing her successful memories, “I’m glad my mother died”, saying that she was happy that her former co-star found a new passion in writing.

“And I have the impression that it is incredible, because her path brought her to the thing she loves. So I’m really happy for her,” said Cosgrove.

And while the pair spent years together on the Hit Nickelodeon Show, Cosgrove admitted that they are not as close today, sharing that it does not really “the way now”.

Cosgrove added, however, “I always know that she is there, and that if I really needed her, I could call her, and I hope she knows the same thing. … I will always encourage for her.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Cosgrove has thought about unique pressures to be a little star and the role that parents can play in the lives of young artists.

“It’s like work for adults in an adult world, and a child is really strange there,” she said. “So many children end up acting because their parents wanted them to do it, and I think that is where it becomes really messy and complicated because it is much more on the parent than the child.”

Cosgrove’s message is similar to McCURDY, which openly spoke of the abuses she suffered in her mother during her acting time.

“My first memories of childhood were heaviness and chaos,” said McCurdy in an interview with People. “My mother’s emotions were so erratic that it was like walking a tightrope every day. Mood fluctuations were daily.”

“My mother had always dreamed of being a famous actor, and she became obsessed with me a star,” she added. “I felt like my job was to maintain peace. And I wanted to make my mother happy.”

The success of McCurdy’s memories has led to the development of a new scripted series, with Jennifer Aniston, on Apple TV +. The streaming giant has announced that the book will be adapted in a dramatic of 10 episodes, with McCurdy as a showrunner and writer.

McCurdy’s book was released for the first time on August 9, 2022 and spent more than 75 weeks on the New York Times best-sellers list.
