Jake Lloyd is a sad story. He was literally bullied his entire life for simply being an actor. People can be absolutely awful.
Children never understand the harm they're doing, or even that they're not the only ones doing harm, which is why they can be so terrible.
I would never be able to handle that, I would just straight up die.
@@Antigen__ no doubt its pretty crazy.
what he described as bullying didnt sound bad at all... when i was in school my mom got called slut and whore for being a single mom, got bullyed and beat up for being poor and wearing the same clothes, got made fun of because i had glasses and they would break them knowing i couldnt afford new ones then more more fun of me for not being able to read. Honestly just sounds like he was soft and refused to try to get help.
@@respecthalo2963 oh wooooow bro you're so cool and tough, consider that children are still susceptible to even milder forms of bullying, that he most likely didn't share everything that he had to sit through, that he was still being dragged through the hellscape of being famous and recognized everywhere he went, and that not everyone is as tough or cool as you.
I feel bad for Jake Lloyd. The mental damage of getting bullied through his education sounds terrible and I hope he gets better soon.
I hope so too
I dont get why people would bully him. I would have tried to befriend him
Yeah…that must be a real rare occurrence…👀
From what he's saying, it really doesn't sound like he was being bullied at all and just has the softest of egos.
Kids making lightsaber noises at you isn't bullying. It's playful.
He needed to re-frame what was happening in his school life. Constantly assuming people are bullying you when they are trying to play with you will make you 0 friends.
@Not RickRoll 🅥 😐
I was pretty sad hearing what Judy Garland went through. She went from playing a character in one of the most iconic movies ever made. To performing in a bar for only 100 dollars. She deserved better treatment...
And yet nobody is held accountable, wonder why
$ is evil@@jondoe384
she was 16 and the studio had doctors prescribe her amphetamines and barbiturates... saying just don't do drugs is sickening she didn't have a choice.
Fame can corrupt more than just the actor. It can turn parents of child actors into harsh opportunists, like Jennette McCurdy’s mother, and considering that times back in those days were different, it makes sense why people were cool with it back then. For all we know, she probably said no until they psychologically manipulated her into taking them or blow this one shot and forever be a relic of forgotten history. Back then and even now, people would do anything for fame, and I’m not just talking about the actors.
@@willmagnuson3174
Grooming is when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate, exploit and abuse them.
She was 16 and quite obviously exploited and manipulated. At 16 that's still a child. Imagine being that young and being told 'take these pills and all your dreams will come true'. Yes her parents should have protected her but when you get a doctor to come around and say 'these will help her and you all will be super rich' that's manipulation. Not everyone is lucky enough to have good protective parents and even those who do aren't immune to trickery and manipulation.
Jake's story is exactly the argument against child acting. Yes, we need child actors sometimes, but we should never exploit them for these roles and they should be protected. Forcing children into fame will ruin them.
Actually the one behind, Geogre Lucas also take the same bombardment of those scumbag toxic OT SW fans. To the point he gave up entire SW Sequels and sold it to Disney and now we all know how it turned to be. Hope that some day those toxic scumbags maybe sent to court and received long prison time for what they have done with him, Geogre Lucas and the Woke SW Disney is running now.
in his case, don't buy all he says that happened
shizophrenia is a hell of an illness, these people do the craziest things and as his mother noted it he was also unable to recognize having it
he most likely did do something obnoxious which got him ridiculed in high school, the lightsaber noises were likely something he did for attention in highschool initially to great fanfare, but then kept milking leading to ridicule
or, you know, don't be an asshole "fan"
@@arvinbuenaagua5161 Came here to write the same thing. Growing up with Autism is brutal because kids are cruel. It is believable that he was bullied. One does not have to do anything to get bullied except just be a bit different.
@@istoppedcaring6209 Wow, that is such a disgusting take. I dated Madison around the time his life started spiraling. Suffice it to say you have no concept of what you are talking about. I heard stories about the bullying that will not ever make it to the public. You are a bad person.
For anyone wondering what happened to Julianna Rose Mauriello (Stephanie from Lazy Town) since I don't think it was actually covered in the video despite her being in the thumbnail- Julianna felt she grew too old to be Stephanie so quit the show, especially since she was 4 years older than the character to start with anyway. She then toured the UK for a while, teaching children the importance of being healthy and active. After travelling back to the US she realised "the life of lights" wasn't for her, so she quit acting and went to college and university where she'd eventually get a masters degree. She is now an Occupational Therapist and is doing really well for herself.
I know Stephanie went though more than one actress aswell so I thought the one who went to jail was gonna be here on the list
It's very very poor from Sunny to do that clickbait rubbish and potentially start malicious rumours about people. But we all know his channel is about trying to kick people down.
It actually pissed me off that she was prominently featured in the thumbnail but never mentioned at all in the vid so thank you. A rare Sunny fail
Absolutely weird behavior to put her in the thumbnail. i looked it up too cause i thought oh he missed it but nah shes doing really good and he portrayed her poorly for clicks
that's good to hear
It's always so sad to watch The Wizard of Oz knowing how Judy's life ended.
@Wednesday 🅥 coming from another bot.
Wow, spoilers much.
And being exposed to pure asbestos ain’t great if you aren’t dying of drug overdose
@@Loregasmo ???
Only if you dwell on shit like that. Why not just enjoy the legacy she left, as she intended?
The worst part is the people who did that to Judy garland were never held accountable. They drugged a child and ruined her life for their own gain.
And it happened all the way in the 1930s-1940s, too.
Even back then... the drugs were quite a commodity.
@@alexfischer7876 Drugs ARE a commodity, my dear. If distributed smartly, 1kg of drug is worth more than 1kg of gold. Rings a bell now?
@@eugenijusdolgovas9278
"My dear"?
_Gay attitude much?_
Judy Garland's life, for me, was very tragic. From her childhood to her fame, to her failed marriages, to her last days. The only thing that was good for her was becoming a mother. Her story makes me really sad 😔
Same she went through so much 😢
A lot of dodgy shit happened in the Wizard of Oz set from what I heard...
The fact that this happens to most child actors is so sad.
Well people like Dan Schneider doesn’t help them either and also fame in itself is a fickle thing especially when their just kids after all.
Not an actor but look at what happened w/ mj… fame at a young age is like a devils curse
I think the only child actor I know of who turned okay was Brooke Shields, and that’s considering the fact she was made to be a giant sex symbol as a kid and teen.
It's probably more the drugs and sex abuse in hollywood
its not sad its horrifying how horrible Hollywood is but parents still take their kids there in hopes of them becoming famous. like selling your own child's soul for money.
How they messed up Judy Garland is just unimaginable. Destroying a life of a child forever like this should be of highest criminal offence
Sadly, the times Judy was living in did not cater kindly to the youth, even in Hollywood. May she rest in peace.
@@kenseidawanderer I was about to say it was even worst back then
@@kenseidawanderer Especially in Hollywood.
Hollywood destroyed Marilyn Monroe too
The people who run / ran hollywood do it on purpose. Same with the adult industry.
that guy claiming to be four years sober on Dr. Phil LITERALLY WHILE BEING HIGH DURNING THE INTERVIEW is wild
There's a very sad irony that Garland starring in what is arguably one of America's most treasured classics had also been the clearest example of the horrors that Hollywood has had on its stars, with unchecked practices being swept under the rug. I'm glad that a light has been shined on the abuse Garland had suffered, but it's so sad that it took this long
Judy's story is so sad seeing as it wasn't even really her fault in the beginning - the whole Wizard of oz production was horrible and it ended up affecting her whole life :(
Yes. I feel so bad for her
It wasn't just The Wizard of Oz, it was really Judy's leech of a mother who failed to protect Judy. Tragic.
Not just her. Every single person on that set was affected long term
Hollywood really screwed up, she could sing and dance but producers basically told her that she didn't have the face or the body to be a leading lady.
I read a book on Frank Sinatra, him and Judy had been friends since the 40s. The book described that in the 60s Judy would practically beg him to sleep with her just so that she could feel good about herself and feel wanted. Frank would oblige, but he wasn't attracted to her and was just doing it because he cared about her. Really sad.
i couldn’t imagine being in her position especially at 16, it’s awful
I blame Judy Garland’s mom for how she turned out. She’s the one who pushed Judy and her sisters into show business
Hollywood chews young actors/actresses up and spits them out. Its always been the same.
Literally
I blame her and Judy's FATHER who did nothing to help his child. Not to mention sick MGM people.
@@Maialeen well he died when she was 13 so it isn’t really his fault cuz how would he help her when he was dead?
@@fortnitefishygaming4632 if he cared so much he wouldn't have died.
Knowing what we know after Quiet on Set about Drake Bell, it's definitely a new perspective to see everything from
was in the comments looking to see if anybody was going to mention "Quiet on set"
You haven't even scratched the surface of the shit Judy Garland went through as a child star. My heart aches for what she and her peers went through from Shirley Temple to Mickey Rooney. And let's not forget the treatment of black actors in that time period. Her story is tragic.
Rest In Peace dear Judy.
I’m so glad Macaulay Culkin managed to get his life back on track. I know we’ll probably never see him in a movie again, but it was so awesome to see his turnaround.
He did a home alone video with avgn a couple years back now I think. Highly recommend it
I loved him in American Horror Story!
His appearances in Red Letter Media are phenomenal
@@volsavious2319 He also showed up in a Mark Rober Glitter Bomb Prank video a few years ago
Stories like these definitely make you appreciate those who turned out fine in their life. Gaining so much success at a young age is a curse as much as it is a gift.
Damn, I had never heard of what happened to Judy Garland. I’ve seen The Wizard of Oz countless times, but knowing how she was treated on set and how it led to her life being ruined, the magic of the film feels slightly tainted
That's showbusiness for you. Full of degenerates who will exploit anything and anyone to make money. Imagine giving a kid amphetamines just so they could keep filming and save some budget!
Just slightly? I am never watching that film ever again
@@PabloBFMVSame
Theres a lot of bad stuff surrounding that film. Like the wicked witch actress literally catching on fire
Literally every actor of the main cast had some sort of remaining health issue from this film
Nobody ever thought that feeding a girl medication that can mess up even a strong and robust adult is an awful idea??? Poor Judy
If you add Judy Garland, you have to include Mickey Rooney. The were child stars together and BFF's for the remainder of her life, and were basically experimented on with drugs in order to delay puberty.
Imagine being a teenager who does 60 interviews a day, that definitely messes you up a bit especially when you are in puberty stage
Why're the bots just saying "Oh"? Now it's their usual links.

@@PhishingIncorporated A truly shocking number. I can't speak at all to how many he was actually doing but 10's of thousands of publications existed, even back in the day before the internet. Now the number is 100's of thousands or more.
These kids deserved so much better. It really shows the dark side of fame, especially early fame.
fr
Well, some of them were mental illnesses not related to their careers so that would happen to anybody.
not fame, child abuse. and its the parents who are worse, Hollywood is bad but the parents forced them into it.
some do, some got what their entitled spoiled personalities asked for
I think all of these were caused by parents not taking care of their kids properly
I never imagined Judy garland suffered like that and was so mistreated in Hollywood. Truly heartbreaking. I love the Wizard of Oz movie since watching it as a kid in Nigeria in the 2000s but never imagined how bad it was for her. God rest her soul.
The lazy Town actress in the thumbnail is not in this video, nice one Sunny
Just scummy in its deception.
it's also not true she got to old to play the character she was playing and decided to go quit acting and go to college
Lindsay Lohan is another infamous example of a child celebrity that went very wrong, the abuses and stress from the industry have broken adults, so it's especially wicked and cruel when it's done to children, this also reminds me the story of Macaulay Culkin.
I heard he pulled his life around recently actually
Macaulay Culkin is doing better these days. In fact he was in an episode of angry video game nerd regarding the home alone games and he played a parody of himself. Plus the dude put on a little weight.
True, while Macaulay had gotten better, it was a long journey, losing years of life to his vices, time that will never be recovered, I recommend the interview done by his brother Kieran, who describes the hard times Macaulay had to endure.
They're both doing fine these days, the road up till now was hell but I'm glad its over for them
Dana Plato from Diff'rent Strokes is probably the saddest case of the child star curse. Just an awful tale.
I feel so sorry for Jake Lloyd, he seemed like a sweet kid but the insane amount of bullying he received was just on another level and crated him out.
Jake Lloyd didn't deserve it. It's just so sad that it needed to end like that.
His insane amount of bullying was “making lightsaber noises” that would make me feel cool asf as a kid. I feel like he might have Been crazy beforehand and thought other kids were bullying him.
@@TheVeillin Uhh, it wasn't just other kids. Grownass adults were shitting on him for his performance.
@@TheVeillin Of course you’d think it was cool, as a grown-ass adult. But Jake was bullied for every day of his school life. From middle all the way into high. Teasing is fine at first, but it gets cumulative, and it gets worse and annoying. And it never ends. Trust me, I know what it’s like to be teased every day. It’s a living hell
@@knightmare5097 Idk man, if I were in his shoes, I'd be flexing the fact that I made more money than their entire families if it really did get to me
How to avoid a trash fate:
1. Don't do drugs
2. Don't be a pedophile
Hollywood: "But that's my whole personality!"
and this is why AI was created
Judy Garland's life was literally just a constant punch directly in the stomach for her. The three men who played the tin man, the lion and the scarecrow bullied her on set because they were apparently jealous of her having the lead role (imagine grown men bullying a little girl - pathetic beyond the pale) and by the time she was a young woman in her 20s her mental health was already completely screwed up because of all the drugs they constantly fed her since she was a child so she wouldn't need to sleep and eat like a regular human being, all with the plan to make as much money as possible out of her then they discarded her like an old tissue.
Then she dies alone, far from home. It's brutally sad and I hope she's someplace now where she is safe and happy in the great beyond.
She was also propositioned by the midgets on the set......
Judy Garland was one of my Dad's favorite actresses. When he heard about her life story, it really hurt him.
I can't imagine how she must've felt through such horrible treatment.
@Ben bot

Orlando Brown’s story is sad. Not just because of his decline and drug addiction, but because even to this day, people continue to interview him and put him in front of cameras knowing that he’s gonna show up high, so that people can see him act crazy. They’re creating “entertainment” from this man’s suffering. As a former meth addict, I know how near-impossible it is to get off that evil substance. It changes your entire personality and it costs you everything, and you still won’t even care because its just ridiculously addictive. I hope this man can break free from addiction because he’s actually a very talented and funny actor.
He has people trying to ruin his life and that part of the conspiracy is true. So we don’t know what he’s going thru behind the scenes mixed w drugs
I've never touched those things and never plan to. Seeing how Orlando acted on that Dr Phil episode was a depressing reminder to stay the fuck away from meth. Good job on getting sober, and I hope Orlando can do the same.
@Austrian Painter literally shut the hell up
Dr Phil is a soulless leech
Congratulations on your recovery. I lived in a city riddled with it and what I does to people is just horrible.
Meanwhile, the adults who profited off of them and abused them are living comfy lives
Particularly feel bad for Jake Lloyd's story. I honestly forgot about him. It's sad now knowing how much he was bullied throughout his school life from being in a Star Wars movie when he was 9 or 10. Says a lot how hard it must've been for him knowing that he retired from acting just a few years later at 12. Sad.
Also Phantom Menance was a very good film. It has a lot of fighting scene in both land and space battles. Those fans are the scumbag toxic OT fans who also make Geogre Lucas gave up and sold Star Wars to Disney
Uh, I feel worse for Judy Garland being fed a diet of barbituates and meth from the studio when she was just 16 leading to a lifelong drug habit and a tragic end...next to that some kids making light-saber noises seems ridiculously trivial.
As Daniel Radcliffe said: in the USA you are treated as a celebrity first then a child second. In the UK it’s child first then celebrity second
Common Daniel Radcliffe W
Those UK child actors are pretty lucky ngl
Exactly from what you here about the Harry Potter child actors. It seemed like they were treated very well on set. Unlike a lot of American child stars.
Tbh United States is the only country with the problem of putting celebrities on a pedestal for some reason. Obviously other countries do this too but it’s so prevalent here. They ask for autographs, photos, and expect it. Celebrities are human and should be treated with respect and dignity. I remember coming across a band I saw in San Diego and I remember we talked for a good 10 minutes before I left the venue. I think people forget that some celebrities do enjoy small talk and you might even become good friends with them if they really like you
Daniel Radcliff also spoke about his rampant alcoholism that he developed when he was younger because of his involvement in Harry Potter
Garland’s story is just so sad. It’s almost infuriating that she turned out (and died) the way she did all because of those older and manipulating of her in her role.

There's something cosmically funny about a week-old account named "Animegirllover" with a Naruto profile picture calling someone an NPC. Of course, the JC Denton pfp repeating the same under them is rather ironic, considering how hard Maximilian's horde of NPCs fell off years ago.

First off, love your content.
In light of the release of "Quiet on Set", it may be appropriate to edit or redo this video.
yea
It’s just horrible how Judy had to act in the snowy regions in the wizard of Oz. The snow was 100% pure asbestos (which is illegal today) and she breathed in so many of the silica-based needles that was in the asbestos.
It might’ve not been asbestos, there’s also the chance it could’ve been gypsum salt
@@Mooms no it was asbestos.....at least thats what I read everywhere and see in video's about the Wizard of Oz. If she hadn't overdosed she probably would have developed asbestos related lungcancer a few years later. Her fate was pretty much set with that movie.
@Endurance Goliath idk. I have seen lots of sensationalized stuff about the Wizard of Oz, but also saw a historian claim that most of it is untrue. I think the story has grown into its own monster at this point.

This is why I have so much respect for Kurt Russell, a child actor himself. He stated in an interview a few years ago that on any film where kids are involved, he will never let them leave his site in fear of someone taking advantage of them.
Another reason to like one of my favorite actors. Thanks :)
One of the few in Hollywood that I don't think I'd mind having a beer with. I recently watched some old reruns with my folks of Gunsmoke with young Kurt in an episode. He looked and sounded exactly like what you'd think a 10 year old Kurt Russell would in your head.
@@samtrujillo794 he’s one of my all time favourites too. Him in Big trouble in Little China, just amazing fun
That's also what happened to Ke Hey Quan a.k.a Short Round from Indiana Jones: Temple of Doom and Data from Goonies. Being a child actor really pressured him not only that he's also an immigrant from Vietnam, he needs to retire for acting for many years and becomes a stuntman instead. And his comeback to Everything Everywhere All At Once is well deserved and even won an Oscar for it.

This video makes me grateful that Macaulay Culkin is doing pretty well nowadays. It seems like him & his wife are keeping a low profile so they can raise their kid & seeing him on being able AVGN & RedLetterMedia & joke alone with them makes me happy. I’m glad he’s recovering.

So the actress in the thumbnail has nothing to do with this video? Why clickbait that? Just put Amanda in the thumbnail
Amanda wasn’t “found” roaming the streets naked, she was able to recognize that she was having a mental episode and flagged someone down for help. Honestly proud of her for doing that and I hope things get better for her and she gets the help she needs!
That's good to hear. Amanda is one of the saddest ones here because you know some horrible things happened to her :( allegedly
people labeled her as crazy but she’s just a person that genuinely needs help.
@@taemcatboy she's a person that needs to talk, Nick had a serious pedo problem and nobody is speaking on what was going on. I guess there are alot of NDAs in Nick
And that person found her. No need to be so picky about the wording.
Nah, you should only be proud if she realizes she's insane before stripping off her clothes.
Judy Garlands story is the most heartbreaking for me. The only person who cared about her was her father who tragically passed away early in life. No one else protected this woman & it makes me sick to know the movie studio that contributed a lot to this, MGM Studios, still exists today owned by Bezos of course. -__-
Bezos' current ownership and MGM exploiting child actors back in the early half of the 1900s have nothing to do with each other
Margaret Hamilton (Wicked Witch) was the only person on set who cared about her. The executives brought in cake/different foods to eat in front of Judy, and the Margaret sneaked some off to feed to Judy because she was appaled at the way they were treating her.
i am still shocked and appalled that the same people who are from the top ranks of hollywood and people who support hollywood are the people who pretend theyre for human rights after doing shit like this... absolutely cruel and horrible
@@supersaiyenunlimit2 The Wicked Witch is the is the least wicked person in the film older than judy, that makes it so much more messed up

"With her estate being worth only a measly $40,000"
I took that personally.
So here's an update for Drake Bell. He's innocent. You see on the Ultimate Drake Bell RUclips channel there are videos where Drake tells his side of the story. Drake said he never did anything sexual or harmful to the girl and when Drake found out she was 15 he blocked her. But I like to think when she found out Drake was married at the time and had a son she wanted to get back at him and it caused her to accuse him of doing such questionable things. Drake then said if he didn't tell them his side of the story and plea guilty he wouldn't have been able to see his son Jeremy. He even said there false articles claiming he did things like sexual assault when in reality he did no such thing. Even if he did he wouldn't have been able to see his son and be sent to jail. He's currently making music on his channel and releasing a new album. Let's just hope that Drake is doing alright and maybe he'll get his life back on track
when i was 7, i walked in on my dad watching a judy garland documentary. i sat down and warched it with him. the horrible way she was treated had me teary-eyed. 19 years later, i am still aghast by how hollywood treated her.

These stories make me love Robin Williams even more, when working on Mrs Doubtfire they wanted to push the kids for some more scenes, Robin stepped in and put a stop to it so the kids could go home. Really is a shame that the industry has ruined lives and still does.
I had never heard about before I read this comment. Robin Williams was an amazing person. RIP
Yes, and he maintained a fatherly relationship with the actors for the rest of his life. He really cared about them ❤️
I'm sure there are still cruel exceptions somewhere in the industry today but as somebody who has worked on set with children, I'm happy to report that there are strict structural guidelines for how long they work, who interacts with them, and how they receive education on set if it interferes with their schooling. So from my perspective, it has (hopefully) gotten better and more accountable than in years past.
Robin Williams also had a clause in his contract that every company he worked for had to hire homeless people for every production he was in. Hollywood did not deserve this man.
i think a big part of the problem is that the parents who push their kids to be actors tend to care more about themselves. it's sad robin williams isn't around anymore, i bet he was a great father figure to these kids
Jake Lloyd came to my house, twice, and I didn't even realize it was him! It was about 9 or 10 years ago. Apparently, he was born here, so maybe he was visiting. My son met him (but didn't realize who he was) and brought him to the house a couple times. I feel bad because I didn't like him because my son was struggling with mental health issues and it was obvious that Jake was, too, and I was afraid it would exasperate my son's troubles so I was thinking it was best if they didn't hang out, but I was also trying very hard not to be a helicopter parent. But, he wasn't here long.
It was two years later when my son sent me a side by side pic of Anakin and Jake with the caption, "Remember him?" That's when I realized freaking Anakin Skywalker was at MY house! TWICE! 😃

Something good about the most recent news about Amanda Bynes is that she was the one who called herself in and recognized that she was having an episode and needed help. Hopefully that’s a sign that she’s getting better
Bra so many of these stories sound like so many of my friends, and even me at times. If I got hella rich, and I’d be a MF mess too!
I was looking to see if someone had mentioned this as it’s a very important step in managing your own MH, starting to recognise things like this. It’s really not fair to Amanda that this important piece of information keeps being left off. I’m probably a decade older than what her target audience was when she was doing the majority of her work, so the only thing that I’ve ever seen her in was Hairspray, and she was brilliant opposite Allison Janney. Here’s hoping that she continues to learn to recognise the intricacies and foibles of her own MH issues.
Damaged from years of Hollyweird diddling.

Amanda Bynes breaks my heart. For a period of time when other teen stars were going the wild route, she was starrring in alot of big movies and seemed like was was gonna break the child star cliche. And I loved her in Easy A.

Amanda deserves the healthy & productive life she seems to yearn for, she’s been trying so hard but all those conditions thrown upon her lead to a constant ‘flip-flop’ out of a stable life…she needs & deserves that stability
She seemed so well put together. I'm guessing she started doing drugs and ended up how she is now. I think that's the main cause of all of these young actor's problems. Drugs can lead to horrible mental illnesses.
I loved her in The Amanda Show, now I can't even stomach the fact that she had to work with Dan "Get in the Van" Schneider throughout her Nickelodeon career. Lord knows what atrocities were going on behind the scenes.
she became emo
I think you forgot to make a chapter segment for Edward Furlong starting at 2:24
Great video!
He didn't make those chapters; those are autogenerated
I appreciate the effort you put on this video but you shouldn't have clickbaited julianna rose (Lazy Town - Stephanie) when she is living a good life right now
I'm so glad that Lindsay Lohan managed to get her life together. Her movies were literally a huge part of my childhood and I was sad that she was going through so much. She seems so much happier and more enthusiastic to be acting and it seems like she's really close to her family too. I am really rooting for Amanda Bynes also to somehow get her life together because I saw a TikTok of someone who met her and this was hours before the incident that sent her to the psych ward. Amanda sounded so sweet and self-aware to the point she actually was the one who told people around her to call for help. I am so convinced Dan Schneider had to have done something truly horrific to Amanda during her days on The Amanda Show, especially with everything Jeanette McCurdy and Alexa Nikolas have said about him.
Lindsay had to literally leave the Western world to regain her footing! Maybe doing so may help some of the other child actors who got fucked over by the industry!
judy garland’s situation hurts because these are medical professionals that ruined this woman’s life forever. it’s so upsetting. i wish the best for all of them. rip to judy
That happened alot in the not too distant past you should see the shit they prescribed housewives I'm jealous of half the shit they got but still its sad. I just like drugs. Be glad you were born now and in the west.
It was a different time. They didn't necessarily know how bad many drugs were back then because they were so new. They seemed like miracle pills back then.
Medical professionals? Bro today there are more opiate addictions because of doctors in the USA today than all of history lol
holy moly, judy garland is the definition of chewed up and spit out by hollywood
Shame that Sunny had to resort to click-baiting one of his many videos, considering that the pink girl in the thumbnail is not even covered in this video, and a lot of people think she had a crappy life, but in reality she did not
Hearing the Jake Lloyd situation is actually so sad. He spent a good amount of his childhood being bullied for simply acting in a movie. It doesn't shock me how he assaulted his mother either since he probably thought that since she pushed him into acting then the bullying is her fault. Truly a sad experience.
His mom clearly felt guilt too, she didn’t press charges
it's sad because as an adult you could probably see that all the bullying was from jealousy and hatred of themselves, people will do anything to cut a amazing/talented person down so they can feel superior.. I hope his experience on the movie isn't completely tainted, because it's such an awesome achievement to do what he did!
@@ihaylz Idk the story doesn't really make complete sense. Sure it is possible for people to do that. But it is more likely that he would be popular with the other kids and people would want to get on his good side and "be popular" by association. Probably there are pieces to this story missing.
That's not an excuse to beat your mother.... He shouldve been locked up for that and rehabilitated. Everyone has problems, but once you start taking it out on other people you become a danger to society and need to be removed until you can behave properly again
@@paulievespucci6867Absolutely not...
Being famous as a child movie actor doesn't at all mean you are going to be popular or cool or other people are going to want to hang out with you.
Also, it was considered a nerdy franchise, so it's not really the best limelight. AND there's the jealousy piece.
Being different is usually not a good thing in elementary school or high school.
Being on the radar is losing half the battle. Many child actors are homeschooled for exactly this reason.
They miss out on normal schoolyard activities, but they also miss out on the bullying.
Lol, so you think he is what, lying about being bullied and having a hard go in school? Because you can think of some magical rare scenario where kids don't suck as much as they do in real life? No.
Orlando Brown is one of the saddest child star stories. Had so much talent and potential. One drug arrest and Disney decides to end this man’s entire career.
Eddy is and still is my favorite character in That so Raven. He did a redemption arc already he is clean and honestly I would give him another chance if I were to cast him.
Agreed. I hope that through therapy and rehab he's able to have somewhat of a normal life again.
I do think he might be homeless too though.

i dated a 15 year old at age 18. and we were criticized HEAVILY..10 years later we are doing our own things. but no animosity. Its just wild. we werent far apart in age. Yet it was this huge thing. I continue to think its just this weird thing that people think they hate but normalize after an arbitrary age.. it was 3 years... the vast majority of married couples have a bigger age gap.
People take the underage thing way too seriously.
@@user-no6eo2fq4xi agree. Age of consent is arbitrary but is meant to just be a legal fine ground. Morally however, the tabboo is overblown and nonsensical.
0:30 : WHO THE HELL GETS BULLIED FOR BEING A HECKING CELEBRITY
Starwars haters
I’m so glad your thumbnail wasn’t accurate. Julianna Rose Mauriello (from LazyTown) has always been one of my favorites, but hadn’t looked her up in a few years and got worried.
(Oh and I looked her up and she seems to be doing VERY well: got her masters, works in pediatric occupational therapy, and has a healthy personal life, so still very happy for her!)
Lazy town is an Icelandic show, so it seems they have ethics over there compared to Hollywood.
See, I knew this already so was confused why she was on the thumbnail. It's really not on to put her up there as the implication alone is a huge disservice to how much she has thrived in life.Thanks for posting this up though, hopefully people will see it!
I'm low key kinda pissed that he clickbaited Stephanie from Lazy Town in the thumbnail. Like what the fuck
your*
@@teacup2849 thanks! Autocorrected on my phone. Will fix.
I grew up on shows like That’s So Raven, The Amanda Show, & Drake & Josh. So seeing stuff like this is pretty heartbreaking.
The film industry can be really cruel & evil.
It’s just life man… we make decisions that lead us to different places…
@TJ Sells Exactly, just like how Judy had the choice to not be drugged and other children had the self restraint to not try something new and interesting to them like the drugs they were offered and the popularity they got 24/7
I recommend you dig a little deeper as this channel did some very superficial reading on the whole Drake Bell thing.
There's a really good RUclips video about the entire Drake & Josh show, pre and post airing.
Corny npc kid
@@justsomekidthatsinfinitely7090 Have fun missing out!
They've always had terrible lives, it's just now they're old enough to comprehend what they've experienced, turning to drugs to escape reality. The fact that Dan Schneider is still working and is not in prison where he belongs, says everything about this industry.
Judy will live on in everyone's mind forever. Thank you Judy for OZ, and may you RIP 🙏
Very unfortunate that those who made our childhoods better were forced into these circumstances. They really deserved better and I hope that future child stars are looked out for properly. I know there are many more than those listed here that deal with similar circumstances through being too famous, too young.
The fact that jake loyds mother didnt press charges, shows the love that moms have for their kids no matter what
I was thinking more like she felt guilty for letting him become a child star.
@@AfromanRants definitely a mothers love. I doubt she was thinking “I can’t believe I let him play in star wars!” When being beaten-up by her own son.
@@AfromanRants She probably thought doing that was good, making him a star and stuff, she was just ignorant like most people specially back in the day, not malicious.
It's her fault for not having him be home schooled. You'd think she hear about all the bullying complaints and take him out from public school.
@@noahshad09 idk, considering the whole reason he went off the handle was because he genuinely believed in the moment she ruined his life I’m not so sure. A mothers love isn’t enough to stop charges being pressed if she thought it wasn’t justified. Maybe it was the realization that if she’d just homeschooled him instead of letting the bullying happen through the entirety of his time at public school. Like she obviously knew the bullying was happening and yet she continued to send him to public school and I think that’s pretty messed up.
This gives a completely new context to the kids movie I learned to love... This is absolutely horrifying. They abused a 16-year-old kid and destroyed her life with "prescribed" drugs.
6:20 what the hell is that wig lmaoaoaoaoaoao
Judy Garland's case is really sad for me because unlike other actors and actresses that turned to drugs and alcohol because of the fame and money, she basically had that life forced onto her from a young age to promote a "skinny" image and ruined her for the rest of her life
Diet and exercise. Not hard at all.
The shit these child actors went through as kids break your heart.
It really sucks that most child actors go through similar events like these
@@Zona984 And the ones that don't or went through it and came out OK are exceptions that prove the norm: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Lisa Foiles, Mara Wilson, Macaulay Culkin, and Kenan Thompson come to mind.
I was beyond obsessed with Edward Furlong as a kid 🥺😭
Ahahah. Yes, twitting "[President] and [First Lady] are ugly!" do mean someone will fall from grace. Ahahahah
As someone who is diagnosed with bipolar I, I can tell you it's so easy to spiral, especially during mania. you need support and people to ground you or you'll always go over the deep end. I've learned to never go along with my first idea during mania, it's often ended poorly. This is why I'd literally never try any drug even once, which includes prescription pain killers, cause the potential for addiction is significantly higher. I feel for Amanda Bynes.
My heart goes to you. I have type 2 and that’s hard enough
I loved lazytown so much as a kid, it was a great tv show for children as it teaches kids to stay healthy.
It was my childhood
@@TommylnnitOfficialbot
I used to watch it in Spanish, it was amazing.
@@its-timeBOOTTTTTTT
Wait, lazy town had a story? I just thought you just sat there wondering why you were feeling strange in your wiener
Just for anyone wondering about the clickbait thumbnail - the pink haired girl from Lazy Town was actually named Julianna Rose Mauriello, and she grew up normally, never had any problems with law, and is now a well adjusted adult.
The same kids bullied him, then went home and wished they were him!!!
To add to the horror, Judy was also repeatedly groped by old men who worked with her on the Oz set. Some even grabbed her still immature chest, pressing and commenting how they're growing and that she would be a pretty lady one day. It was "normal" to have producers touch actors and actresses all over because of the power they had on your career.
Well that's horrifying. Sadly, I think said behavior just became more secretive and subtle after that era, rather than stopped entirely, if the likes of Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey are anything to go by. And lot's not forget that certain island too from the guy that supposedly off'd himself...
@@flarestorm9417 Who was it that Kevin Spacey groped?
@pushista9322 if you wish to know the full story, look up "dreading: crime and psychology Kevin Spacey"
@@pushista9322 A couple years ago he was accused of sexual assault by multiple men. He was found not guilty though, apparently.
It "was" normal and still is normalized, even more so nowadays in Hollyweird. Hollywood is heaven for pedophiles.
Kids can be so cruel when it comes to convering up their own jealousy and insecurity smh
Kids are cruel, and I’m very in touch with my inner child
@@Mrbackblower Sundowner moment
Yes.
God, the dark, creepy cloud that tends to surround nickelodeon live action stars is so creepy, especially when you hear about the many evils of Dan Schneider and some of the other nick higher ups.
Poor Lloyd, imagine continuing on with life knowing that your entire career peaked when you were 10
Jake Lloyd was the most broken one, he was bullied so much that this caused him to go completely mad, and his sisters death drove him worse. I hope the best for him
Honestly I blame George Lucas. It was a terrible script first of all, and this poor kid was selected to be young Anakin/Darth Vader with basically zero acting experience whatsoever. If you watch some of the casting tapes, there were other kids competing for the role and one of them in particular was just a natural at it but George was like "Well, some people test well but don't necessarily translate to performing well" -- Jake Lloyd did none of those things. Then his family pimped him out to voice act in video games as well, squeezing as much out of the situation as possible. Of course, everyone for the most part hated Episode 1 and the only character people hated more in it was Jar Jar Binks, as far as being annoying and all. I think they set the kid up for failure, then you have an entire population of disappointed fans looking for anyone and anything to blame and suddenly you find out this kid actor is suddenly your classmate. If I had a nickel for every time someone most likely mockingly asked him "Are you an angel?" I'd probably be a multi-millionaire by now.
The story of child actor Bobby Driscoll was really sad. He was the only child of his family known for being in Song of the South and for the voice and model for Peter Pan in 1953 but shortly after the release of Peter Pan, his contract with Disney expired and he was more or less blacklisted from show business due to him getting older and him having acne. This resulted in Bobby dying on March 30th, 1968. Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers had a scarily accurate parallel with Driscoll's story for the backstory of Sweet Pete.
He played Jim Hawkins in my favourite rendition of treasure Island alongside Robert Newton as John Silver, really turns those happy memories bittersweet
how did him getting blacklisted result in death? i think some steps are missing there 🤔
@@agoogolofgeese Being blacklisted from show business did a lot of damage to Bobby as he didn't find major success in anything he did after being blacklisted and he was suffering from being an alcoholic.
@@theyakkomanguy7522 Eventually he died of drug overdose at the age of 30 which his mother didn't know until a few years later
Amanda was something else. I couldn't believe how funny she was,..she's 12 and her grasp of physical comedy is amazing - I was in college when All That and Amanda Show were on the air. There were sketches better than SNL at the time. Those kids were all a riot
Always felt bad for Drake Bell, at least until the underage stuff came out, dude always seemes like the epitome of coolness on D+J, and to see him sink so low was sad...
It's honestly sad to see these child celebrities grow up to ruin their reputations, these are the people that made our childhoods and seeing them throw their fame away is just heartbreaking to say the least
in a lot of cases the reason is because the fame was the thing that ruined their own childhoods.
It's even more sad when you realize that these kids never stood a chance. From an early age, they we forced into a mold of what they should be, and they're expected to fit into that mold for the rest of their lives. Then there's all the adults in power who just want to exploit them. It really doesn't surprise me that many of them turn to drugs and alcohol. I often hear that they're peer pressured into using substances by adults, sometimes even their employers.
Only a few of them threw their fame away. Most of them were actually prisoners and victims to their own fame.
@@dlr_rosa254 Sorry to hear this and the abuse that went with that.
Except in most of these cases, they're not throwing it away for nothing. More often than not it's because they have no other way to cope with all the bullshit they went through. The industry is terrible. If you want good insight to how bad it was, just with Nickelodeon alone, read I'm Glad My Mom Died. Jennette McCurdy is an excellent writer and her story alone is heartbreaking but also so many other nick stars have come out and told similar stories. Hell the Victorious cast was constantly wasted, and that was when they were underage. I will always love the shows that made my childhood but I"m more upset that there isn't enough being done to protect child stars so that they don't have to go through this, because it's not their fault that they turn out the way they do, and then all we do is fail them as children and mock them as adults.

Why is the Lazy Town girl in the thumbnail? Last I heard, she’s living a happy normal life.
There's a rumor about her being arrested. Sunny probably deleted that part of the video because he couldn't verify it but didn't change the thumbnail.
THANK GOD!!!!!!!
The world already lost one part of that childhood and it ain’t ready to lose another!!!
The girl from lazytown featured in the thumbnail does not appear in this video. Julianna Rose Mauriello got her master's degree in occupational therapy at Columbia University around 2017 - 2018.
Sunny, your content is captivating for 2 reasons (imo)...
Firstly, the quality and research you do is very impressive, and the format you present is informative while also being entertaining. Lastly, the way you get straight to the meat of the video is what keeps people hooked to your channel.
Thank you for your hard work and the passion you show! You deserve all of the success that comes your way and we all can't wait to see what the future brings for SunnyV2!
try simping for someone who doesn't clickbait
Grow a pair.
This is why being a celebrity is much more riskier than many people picture it to be. And it's troublesome for the crowd too since they don't know who the celebrity could really be.
Is it though? You get the bad cases here because there is no point saying someone is fine.
But many normal have tons of issues as well. I had crazy parents my sister is a mentally ill etc.
I am no celebrity. Shit happens to people.
I met Jake at Star Wars Celebration 3, super cool guy, we talked about Jingle all the way. It’s so sad to see how crappy kids can be to each other.
Wish him nothing but the best.
0:56 Bro what a WILDLY inappropriate thing to say. I feel so bad for Jake
"Other children were really mean to me. THey would make the sound of the lightsaber every time they saw me." Oh, you poor child. I was punched and kicked and called names, but a lightsaber sound... so awful.
Thumbnailing Julianna Rose Mauriello for this video is clearly foul play. There is no story about her nor would there be any to tell.
