Speaking out: Several actress, including Daniella Monet and Alexa Nikolas, claimed they were subjected to abuse and forced to film 'sexualized' scenes on Nickelodeon shows created, produced and written by Dan Schneider (pictured in 2015) in a new Insider exposéThe actress described reaching out to the network after she was forced to film a scene in which she applied lip gloss while eating a pickle, which she worried was too sexual to be broadcast on a kid-centric network. But Nickelodeon executives apparently sided with Schneider and the creative team over Monet, and the scene was included in the episode. She added that not only did the executives OK the scene, but its Standards and Practices division would have had to sign off on it as well.

Ethan Shanfeld Earlier this month, “iCarly” star Jennette McCurdy’s bombshell memoir, “I’m Glad My Mom Died,” detailed alleged abuse she experienced while working at Nickelodeon. Now, several former child actors and Nickelodeon staffers are speaking out against Dan Schneider, creator of “Zoey 101,” “Victorious,” “iCarly” and “Drake & Josh,” who reshaped the network and kids’ television at large.

When it came to picking costumes, Schneider “signed off on all outfits” and “campaign[ed] for the skimpier options,” the report states. (McCurdy wrote in her memoir that she was pressured to wear a bikini on “iCarly.”)
