Jennette McCurdy

iCarly star Jennette McCurdy revealed her most embarrassing moment in the February/March issue of DG! Check it out…

“I was running down the stairs in a scene—and I fell onto my back! It was clunk, clunk, clunk—and my arms were flailing! I knocked down everything in sight. It was just so insane! The cameras were still rolling so I had to pretend that everything was okay even though I thought I broke my pinky!”

Are Miranda and you close? When you met her did you immediatly bond?

Jennette

Dear Jennette,

I a couple of months ago, I found out the bad side to one of my friends, “S”. Her and one other friend started a group to leave me out of our group of friends. I found out about it, and confronted my other friend about t. She felt bad, realized it was a mistake for her to do that, and I forgave her. The thing is, when I confronted “S” about it, she denied ever doing that and acted like she didn’t know what I was talking about. Ever since then, I realized she doesn’t want to be my friend. She leaves me out of things and doesn’t talk to me that much. But I have to deal with her because we have the same best friends! Do you have any advice as to how to cope with “S” so I won’t feel so bad or jealous when she hangs out with my friends in front of me and just ignores me?

Thanks so much for reading this,

How has your life changed since you’ve been on iCarly and what is the cast like?

               -Love, Mattie

Miranda and Nathan

Are Miranda and Nathan fun to be around?

How was your audition?

I’m an aspiring actress and I have been wanting to know a little bit more about auditioning, especially for a television and movies.

I assume you auditioned for your part, and when you did, were you nervous at all? I’m sure you get asked that question a lot!

What did you have to do for your audition? Quote a part from a scene?

And finally, have you ever auditioned for in theater? If you did, was your audition for iCarly different than it was for an audition in the theater?

Thanks so much! ♥Lucy♥
