that grown woman kissing her was definitely sexual assault, not just sexual harassment because it was an act not just words ugh disgusting
Technically, the legal definition of assault is merely the attempt or threat of the act. Assault (in legal terms) is making someone reasonably fear the threat of imminent harm.
Just some legal things - colloquially I know we use assault as a physical act. Legally it’s not though.
(Ctd) so if someone backs you into a corner and says they’re going to r@pe you but for some reason doesn’t finish it - that’s assualt. If they grope you during the process then it’s sexual battery. If they follow through on r@pe then it’s also a form of sexual battery. Within the term “sexual battery” there are different levels, which will incur different sentences….just like there are different levels to murder charges. Every state (and country) has varying levels of complexity for charges.
Just an FYI - I think it’s always good to know the legal terms and definitions so victims can adequately navigate the Justice system when they pursue their options for coming forward.
Kissing isn't s3xu@l act... we kiss our parents n children...when it involves a stranger n a m!n0r it SHOULD still be ill3g@l.. but its not
She needs to be arrested!
@@ree3197finally saids it and not just her but the grown man too
That adult producer forcibly kissing a child actor is straight up SA
Wow...being forced to engage intimately with an actor twice her age while being 14 on set has to be actionable. Call your lawyer !
" DiMeco said she was 14-15 when the scene took place and the male actor was 30+ . Jake Hertzog is the actor DiMeco shared the scene with . Multiple online sources indicate Hertzog was born in 1986, which would have made him about 21 at the time the scene was filmed. "
Thanks for the clarification.@@exitscreaming4637
@@exitscreaming4637he must have felt 30 to her her at 14. 21 and 14 is still fked up.
@@nitely2345 Maybe , but saying he was over 30 when he was actually 21 is misleading and wrong. Just stick to the facts
@exitscreaming4637 either way, he was an adult, and she was a minor.
I mean, a minor being scripted to kiss a grown ahh man is something which shouldn't have ever happened anyway and could only have come from scuzzy motivations.
I just remembered that show and i completely forgot that the younger brother was supposed to be in a whole relationship with a grown ass woman. It's crazy the stuff nickelodeon was able to get away with because as kids we didn't know any beter
Didn't they do that on that 70s show with mila Kunis being underage from Ashton and they were together. I know it's not a nick show but Hollyweird needs to STOP
@reyanna650 mila also lied about her age and they didnt find out until after she was cast for the part.
@@jayJ857in an interview she said she told em asap cause they asked for an ID or something when trying to move forward with her. Regardless they knew and still moved forward.
I remember I was in kindergarten when my teacher asked me what’s your favorite show to watch? Then I replied the naked Brothers band, and she looked at me with the most concerned face and said, what did you just say? Im 21 now and still remember this.
What’s crazy is that NBB is one of my favorite shows of all time and I remember watching that episode with that French guy and thinking nothing about his age. Really goes to show that we were truly blinded as children. I feel so horrible for Allie. Justice for all kids wronged by Nickelodeon
I loved that show too. I did see how things were weird at the time too.
I think it just showed that people enjoyed themselves back then and didnt over analyze everything like they do
@@dannigro8794 you think this video is over analyzing?
@@dannigro8794no 1 asked 🌽 🏀

as a child i went through something very similar to drake bell, however i was lucky enough that i wasn’t forced to work with the man, but this doc coming out and basically normalizing talking about experiences i finally told my gf about what happened and basically found a link (idk how i didn’t see it but i also haven’t had any therapy) between that and heavy substance abuse and now i’m a week clean from using and withdrawals suck but thinking clearly and having a gf that supports me thru it is beautiful and i finally somehow see a future for myself. thank you for bringing people to freedom basically with being on the doc and with your videos as well. you’ve helped probably a lot more in the same way you’ve helped me too. i really don’t know how to explain but you’ve made it easier and “less embarrassing” for me. thank you again
While it won’t be a smooth journey I wish you a well path of healing and I hope you find many people who will also support you through it too
Dude, you're amazing. You got a rough journey ahead of you, but it seems to me that you have support in your life. I wish you many more months and years of being clean and healing. 🙌
so proud of you keep up the good work
Proud of you! And now you sharing this story might encourage someone else to tell their girlfriend/ friend / parents or whoever! ❤
You are Awesome!!! Most addicts/alcoholics experienced childhood trauma, and start out trying to Numb Emotional Pain! A good therapist is very helpful in my experience. Hugs! I’m praying for you and all the others! 🙏💜🙏💜
The ick is never ending with Nick.

it was always so uncomfortable hearing about the Naked Brothers Band growing up as a kid, that never sat right with me
What did you hear about them?
Do you mean the name?@@pleaseshutup7053
@@pleaseshutup7053 i think they meant the name. it made me uncomfortable as a kid too, so i avoided anything about them. it didnt make sense to me why they were named that and just made me feel confused and weirded out
@@citrus7745 I get what you are saying. But the kids are the ones who called themselves that for years. It’s a memorable name I’ll just say that
DUDE I remember vividly talking about the show in front of my dad with my sister and he B L e W the fuck up just from hearing the name😭😭 thank God dukes was right there she was like nah fucking weird name but just some TV kid band
Very sad story to what happened to Allie DiMeco. Just because she didn't want to kiss a 30 YEAR OLD MAN. She was threated to be fired and affect her career. This reminds me to the Victorious episode "Beck Falls for Tori" where Tori feels uncomfortable to be a stunt double and she had the intention to tell the production that she didn't wanted to do it, but her mates does not recommend her to do that because she will put in risk to not be hired again by any production. Basically was Nickelodeon describing themselves on an episode. Also Allie DiMeco's case reminds me the Demi Lovato's song where she sings "Finally 29. 17 would never cross my mind".
" DiMeco said she was 14-15 when the scene took place and the male actor was 30+ . Jake Hertzog is the actor DiMeco shared the scene with . Multiple online sources indicate Hertzog was born in 1986, which would have made him about 21 at the time the scene was filmed. "
They should’ve locked that woman that kissed up ASAP … shit caught me off guard.
Bro!!!! She should lawyer up! That’s straight abuse! You can easily argue that was sexual abuse! The female producer just goes up and kisses her, IN FRONT OF HER MOM??? She should 100% lawyer up and sue Nickelodeon for her pain and suffering. There needs to be a class action lawsuit against Nickelodeon right now
Im hoping they get shut down after this
You don’t wanna wish that , that 7 show run from Dan will never be matched and remade ever again . That’s Hollywood the CEO’s play as puppet masters
a grown adult KISSED her?! that’s not SH! that’s SA!!! i cannot believe this happened. wow wow wow i wish allie so much healing. that poor poor girl. i know she said that her internalized feeling was that she was a diva but she did exactly what i know victims wish they did for themselves
Has Alexa talked about that Selena Gomez Cinderella movie where she is 15 and Drew seely is 26
@@pleaseshutup7053 i’m not sure but that is definitely something that needs to get talked about! i remember learning about that in my mid teen years and thinking it was so weird but brushing it away because that’s “just hollywood” as people always like to say
excuse me, could you explain the differences between sexual harassment and sexual abuse? I don't know the difference between these two concepts and it makes me curious why people is saying it is not SH but SA instead u.u
It's both.
SA: did touch without consent.
SH: If you don't do this intimate touch without consent, then I'll threaten your job.
Thus it was both.
@@lucyykrog.
SH: has a power dynamic. If you don't kiss, etc you will lose your job.
SA: Is person violates touch boundaries in a sexual or otherwise provocative manner.
Thus the kiss was both. She threatened her with both.
Also, there is a scene in the movie ‘Blank Check’ that I watched as a kid.
A grown woman passionately kissed a literal child
ua-cam.com/video/DWvsq5vg_gk/v-deo.htmlsi=-aX1HB_fuz56JqmO
Haha year I remember that. Have you seen the Disney movie wish upon a star that got a child wearing bondage and a young Katherine Heigl barely any clothes the whole movie
The kid from family ties.
I always felt so uncomfortable watching the movie Big for the same reason. It’s all preformed by adult actors but the implication in the movie is that a kid makes a wish to be an adult so he has the mind of a child and looks like an adult and they have this character have relations with adult women
YES THAT PLOTLINE WAS INSANE
That executive should have been sued on the spot for what she did to Allie.
However that executive was that person should go to jail.
Sue them for what?
@@pleaseshutup7053 She grabbed Allie and kissed her when she said she didn’t want to do the kissing scene, since she hadn’t had her first kiss yet. Then she said, “Now you have, so shut up!”
@@baxatakbaxatak2014 I’ve seen cases like that this year when it’s a woman doing these things nothing happens now back in 2007 the case would have been probably thrown out

Girl you gotta expose the Nick website w the web archive asap👏🏼
They have a website?
@@beill1yeah for nickelodeon games, behind the scenes clips, even some episodes for the shows
The website is called "Wayback Machine". You can look up old archives of websites from years ago.
@@beill1 yeah it was huge back n the day, i remember as a kid id be on their website all the time
Also what about when Miranda’s character kissed this actor who portrayed Griffin in i Date A Bad Boy special who happens to be 7 years older than her, I wouldn’t be surprised Dan put her up to it 🤦🏾♀️
Why is it "If you rock the boat you'll never work again" and not "If you make a child do this we will go public and YOU'LL never work again"? Oh right, they have hush money in the budget and not living wage money. Keep people desperate and they're easier to control. They start questioning themselves instead of the one calling the shots.

WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK WAS THAT STORY ABOUT THE GROWN WOMAN KISSING THAT 14 YEAR OLD?????? WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK
IMDb shows three female producers for this show: polly draper, kara klenk, and kari kim. idk if it was any of them or an uncredited female producer but whoever it was should never work on a set again, let alone with children
I think it was Polly Draper. She was the director and creator of the show as well.
@@skyofthelivingdeadI think she’s the brothers’ mom too
@@KittyKong14yeah she is.
Their father is Michael Wolff who was a bandleader for The Arsenal Hall Show.
caron rudner as well
In another Cinderella story on Disney the main character was 16 and the lover was 26. They also were forced to kiss.
Even the first Cinderella Story on Disney, Hillary duff was 15 and Chad Michael Murray way 23. And there's bee interviews brought up about the directors being sleepy, making the two of them practice kissing in a trailer while he watched
@anggela 😲 omg I had no idea!!
@@victoriadanielis7936 I meant to say sleazy* lol but yes it's insane!! I knew they made another one, but I didn't know they did the same creepy age gap again! So awful how normalized it is in hollywood
how the fuck was this shit so normal in studios. i guarantee none of us kids would be ok w that. i remember finding this shit weird as a kid. its so disturbing how it was everywhere....
@@Sushigabby yea I was shocked when I saw the paparazzi photos of Selena and Drew. I was like why isn’t anybody stopping this?!?
I was about the same age as Allie when I watched the show and even I felt that first kiss episode was awkward as a kid. I always thought she was cute and I was envious that she was on TV. I looked up to her. To hear now that a grown adult took her first kiss away from her is just heartbreaking. When you’re that young, you expect your first kiss to be a magical moment… not stolen by an adult. That is SA. She was a minor and could not consent. I feel so bad for Allie.
Hearing all of these stories has caused a lot of past trauma to come to the surface; I have uncovered issues that I didn’t actually realize were getting in the way of living a healthy life. I will continue to love and support you and all of these beautiful men and women who are coming forward to hold these vermin accountable.
I never got justice for everything that happened to me (he was deported for a crime against another child) so I’m praying that all people who have come forward are able to get justice and free themselves; I don’t think this pain ever goes away but it’s an amazing first step.
I'm so sorry that you didn't get justice for what happened to you
@@angelaholmes8888 thank you. It took YEARS of therapy but I’m finally at some sort of peace with it. It’s a continuous process 💕
I mean why does romance and kissing have to be in children's shows anyways???? That was always one of the main reasons as to why I wasnt allowed to watch Zoey 101, certain cartoons, bratz, etc. everyone wanted or had boyfriends, making out, sex jokes etc. We need to cut that out of kids shows and just focus on talent and adventure.
Right. A kiss on the cheek can be cute in a kids show, but there is no reason for it to be mouth kissing.
It made me feel so behind as a child cause I got no romantic interests until 19
@@bryanna_renaeeas an 18 yr old same
There are people that will defend showing kissing with teens because they say “it’s a totally normal experience that does happen in real life.” That may be but like “is nothing sacred” anymore? We have collectively been sexually desensitized to where seeing graphic sex scenes in movies is like nothing now.
Don't translate.....

My mom HATED the Naked Brothers band show. She was super uncomfortable with the name alone but even more after watching the show with me. As a CHILD of course I googled them and ended up on a sight that isn't child friendly. I still can't wrap my head around the name and their weird reason for choosing it. "When we were little we would take baths together a lot and that inspired me to name us Naked Brothers band". DID WE REALLY HAVE A CHILD SAY ON TV A STORY ABOUT HIM BEING NAKED IN A BATHTUB WITH OTHER CHILDERN?!!!!
Brother I heard someone say this was the ‘me too’ for kids movement and I thought it was silly, but it literally is. Every single day there is more and more and more. With all this coming out I’ve come to a very scorched earth conclusion, and I’m no boomer, I’m only 27, but there is absolutely zero purpose for a live action children’s tv show. This happens wayyyy too darn often! Kids can watch animation, that’s all they need!
Absolutely. They should always be animated and make sure they are not animated in any perverted ways that could harm the children watching. It is not worth it hurting all these kids just for some entertainment. Hollywood needs to be stopped in general. They have too much control over society and they are ruining children.
I'm 27 too. I agree animation is way better than live action. There's no meetoo on cartoons because they don't exist. However there is a rule 34 on underage characters which I'm against. To solve this problem is to not search any cartoon characters on any search term and just watch the show offline
Another episode is coming on 4/7 and Alexa, I'm not ready for more heartbreaking truths. Executive producer, female: Polly Draper
Her husband Michael Wolff was co executive producer and was also a former bandleader for the Arsenal Hall show.
"The series' title derived from an incident when the brothers were very young: they came out of the bathtub and said, "We're the naked brothers band!" Although Nat revised the band's title to The Silver Boulders in preschool, Polly Draper revived it as she felt it would be more suitable for the show." This is what I found from a google search as to why the show was named that. The title of the name at least makes a little more sense because I honestly had no clue why until after you asked that in your video....However, I think too many people lack the ability to read the room. Like...I get it was a joke they said when they were little, but can we please think about the message it comes across as to those who lack that context?! Like, maybe we shouldnt name things such questionable stuff. That memory is only cute to a very small group, presumably his family. Lets not share that with the world, the same world filled with p*dos. Thank you.
Not to defend any weird, creepy stuff, but if i remember correctly, they at least explain that story in the first episode. But fr they really could have had a better name.
@@JakeAdkinsOfficial that's good info to know! I didn't watch the show, so thank you for providing that context
As a kid I was entertained by Naked Brothers band, but even as a child I remember sometimes feeling like the show was meant for an older audience than me due to all the relationships and kidding.
Remember the NBB episode where Nat did stand up comedy? In the scene where he was in the comedy club, the audience, full of grown women, was shown seemingly crushing on 11-year-old him. Even as a kid watching, that always seemed off to me.
I remember side eyeing the Gibby with his gf episodes on iCarly after I found out the girl playing her, Emily Ratajkowski, was a grown woman at 19 and Noah Munck was 14. 🤮
My mouth dropped when that lady kissed her and SH her by doung that like wtffff that just makes me sad and angry😢 😡
I’m still baffled that they made Alex simp over his real life cousin in the show.
They really wanted to get all the taboo fetishes in and they succeeded. It’s so eerie that we grew up with this 🤮 no wonder my sexuality is so twisted
And its pretty easy to avoid fr
Wtf the female producer that grabbed a 13 year old girl and kissed her needs to be in jail that is absolutely SA! I am dumbfounded i know fucked up stuff happens all the time in the industry but for some reason I’m still shocked and angry every single time
Because it’s the only logical human reaction when hearing of a child being abused. You’re a normal human. Never let people make you feel like your outrage is unjustified when it comes to hurting children.
And how is Nickelodeon still a network?? The whole thing should be disbanded.
It is literally a public pdf file ring and is still running 😢
Hey, love the content, no disagreements. About 5:10 we start to address that making a formal complaint usually leads to the insinuation of termination of employment, and you later state "welcome to the industry", again I totally agree, but this behavior is rampant in almost all industries. I remember reporting a coworker who would follow me around and make lewd comments and I had told her to leave me alone eventually, I had a girlfriend. It persisted so I reported it to my HR. Not knowing it was her HUSBAND and he was all like "she is just joking with you, blah blah blah, man up, pull up your pants, etc." So I asked to be moved to a different line at least, as she was my superior, he said he would see what he could do. I went back to work as I used my smoke break to have this discussion. Not even two minutes later she approached me with something like "my husband told me what you said, if you don't want to be on this line you don't have to work here" mind you, this was a very well paying job with stock options and full benefits and I have a child to think about, so I dealt with it for over 4 months until I got a promotion and moved to a different building. Something similar happened when I reported my boss for forcing me to carry over 100lbs of glass up an unrailed staircase without PPE, I resisted doing it but did it under deress of being fired, I feĺ and hurt my back, had to go to the hospital, who obviously put in the information my delirious self gave, the next day I was called as I was resting that if I wouldn't be able to return timely they would have to let me go, I returned like a week and a half later, against the advisement of my doctor, they treated me very different and some life happened and I ended up in the hospital again, as I didn't give myself the proper healing time or physical therapy before returning so I got re injured and was let go that morning on my way to the hospital at like 1030 am. Heck, my old Wendy's manager was sleeping with a girl I knew was 16 he had to at least be 45, I said something once as like a joke as I was a kid myself, never have I ever been so berated by an individual, he then called the police on me claiming i stole from the store, luckily cameras and photos with time stamps from snapchat proved my innocence.The issue is in all industries and it's so disturbing, and it damages my already dwindling will to live.
This like my most recent job where I had a coworker drop to the floor in sudden cardiac arrest and I jumped in instinctually and did CPR for a long time. That resulted in a serious injury to my sciatica nerve. I wasn't allowed to call off, they threatened to fire me and when I tried to get worker's comp I was told what I did didn't fit my job description...so they wouldn't help me
What makes it more ridiculous, centuries ago the stage mastered fake kissing where there is no actual kissing: from behind a curtain then revealing with make-up smudges the intent, to the Broadway dip, to even having one actor hold a piece of paper between the two actors faces. Those are just a few. You would think, especially with a lot of these shows having a stage-like setup, these tactics would be used more often. ESPECIALLY with child actors.
The whole thing just makes me sick and want to hold onto my girls tightly. Also, makes me thankful that my parents told me essentially only local theatre productions (schools or public stage shows) when I expressed an interest with acting, even though I wanted to do film. I still remember my mom saying in no uncertain terms, "It's a hard business even as an adult, but going in as a child will only mess you up."
Oh my god!!! That story of the woman producer kissing her because she hadn’t had it reminds me of Maddie Ziegler on dance moms Abbie Lee Milker literally did it on camera
I think you made a great point that applies to a lot of institutions. It comes from the top down. In my experience, in most industries, when it comes to management, there are some good apples in a field of rotten ones. Even just as someone who worked for one of these companies as a server in their parks with no union or anything I had a friend get SA'd by a manager and when she went to HR and they told her not to do anything because it was her word against theirs, despite having texts where she confronted him and he just made excuses for his actions and never denied it. These issues are the canary in the mine for all of corporate America. Glad to see you guys are starting the right conversations.
I remember growing up, my parents didn’t allow me to watch that show simply because of the name. But I snuck and watched it anyway lmfaooo
same
The two brothers have the last name wolf which would have been a great name for a kids band
yeah, they could’ve done something with that last name instead of “naked brothers band”…..
I was a IT guy for a local newspaper in 2005 and we had someone on night shift who used one computers to access porn and I spent 3 weeks tracking that person down setting up hidden camera on the computer and waiting till the accessed this. Finally got the person and this was AUDULT PORN on computer only adults would ever use. If was Child porn I would been calling cops no matter what publisher of paper said.
Can we also talk about Abby Lee Miller kissing a literal child on Dance Moms??
Watching this show when I was a kid I thought it was a documentary and I thought the person playing Rosalina was at least 16 or 17. Also WHO TF FORCED A KISS ON HER TO “GET RID OF HER FORST KISS?!” Shut the whole company down. The whole channel. All of it
Being a mother of a daughter thus hits so hard. She deserved to be protected. My eyes welled up hearing her say she should've acted differently. My heart aches for her.
As a parent it also crushes me. My baby’s first kiss should be something they consent to and not something they will remember with disgust.
The name of the adult woman that sexually assaulted her needs to be outed what the actual hell my blood boils for her I feel so awful that’s SICK
I'm glad you're addressing the message that this isn't just a "one bad apple" situation and it's more so and institution of this behavior.
That message has been often overlooked as online commentators are getting in on the discussion and just pointing fingers to the obvious creeps, instead of the whole system that allowed it.
From what I remember when I was a kid Nick advertised the shows website before they bought the domain name it as a kid it took me to a gay pron site. I was confused and scared and got in trouble for it.
It's definitely SA, it doesnt become SH just bc the perpetrator was a woman.
so much malicious compliance at Nick, this should be studied
It was Polly Draper she wrote on The Naked Brother
I think it was Polly too
NBB was one of those shows where even as a kid I avoided, just the name turned me off from it, very sad to hear what happened to Allie backstage but it goes to show that the problematic behaviors at Nickelodeon weren't limited to Dan Schneider and his productions since he didn't work on this show. Its clearly an institutional and cultural problem within Nickelodeon itself, I'm glad more victims are finding the courage to speak out about the atrocities that were committed against them by this evil company
I avoided that show as well. I found it to be inappropriate as well.
Ever since the documentary came out, I’ve been re-watching the Dan Schneider shows to see what I missed. I saw one yesterday on Zoey 101 that nearly made me pass out in season one. There’s an episode called prank week and the boys are prank in the girls and they’re telling them about pranks they had pulled on them and there’s a scene with Chase sitting in a fountain, completely tied up with balls hanging out of his mouth. I don’t care what anyone says that had to be mimicking you know what
Crazy they did that. Great show tho

Thank you for continuing to share this content.
your work here is so important, keep doing it! 👏🏻😍
Allie if you ever see this you had fans. I was your fan. You were the only reason I watched the show
I never watched the Naked Brothers Band simply bc of the name. Too weird. I think the last show I tuned into fully was Victorious and that one was definitely too weird at times for me but I loved the idea of the performing arts school.
Just here to show my support ❤️ sending love from Australia.
Wikipedia says: "The series' title derived from an incident when the brothers were very young: they came out of the bathtub and said, "We're the naked brothers band!" Although Nat revised the band's title to The Silver Boulders in preschool, Polly Draper revived it as she felt it would be more suitable for the show."
Now idk where wikipedia got that source, but it sounds like there was a reason it was called that.
Loved Alexa’s style of screaming 😱
I’m a 38yr old man. When she said they took her first kiss from her…. Just wow. Made me cry. If she was my daughter I’d probably be in prison.
Wasn’t there also an episode of to catch a predator that had a Nickelodeon employee on it?
Holy shit I didn’t know it was like that on The Haunted Hathaways too.
That Is beyond not ok, Nickelodeon is a sick, sick network. It was so not ok for nickelodeon to do that their former child actors.
Thank you so much for spreading light to this situation, absolutely disgusting. Everyone involved needs to be held accountable.
I remember my mom not letting me put on a naked brothers band fake tattoo that came in some game I got bc it said naked and she was really pissed when I was tryna convince her to let me looking back good on her would’ve been weird
It’s so sad she thought she didn’t have fans, she was the only one I liked in the show as a kid 🥺
Something that isnt being discussed enough is what exactly are we supposed to do with all these revelations and information? Aside from be upset about it? How exactly do we hold Nickelodeon, Dan Schneider, Brain Peck, and these other corrupt people accountable? Do we change laws? Do we collectively make sure Brain Peck never leaves his home safely again? I would like to hear this side of the conversation more.
I remember being a kid and just finding it off-putting that a kid’s show would have that word in the title. It further bothered me when a little commercial snippet burned into my brain was one of the boys saying “the name happened bc we were naked at the time.” or something to that affect. Okay but that is worse, it conjures awful images of the context. If sickelodeon does one thing better than anyone else (besides Disney) it’s giving kids disturbing content and playing it for laughs. I was even kept from Zoey 101 bc my mother saw “Zoe one on one” and thought it was dirty. Boy howdy was she right, mamas usually are.
I think it’s called the naked Brothers band because when they were like toddlers, they were naked in a bathtub singing together taking a bath , I think that’s where it came from.
There was a nbb member that was only in the first movie but he isn’t in the series I also remember they written him off by saying he wanted to pursue in “cooking” in one of those 2 min segments with Thomas. It makes me wonder what happened to him his name was Joshua Kaye I think
a grown woman was the little boys GF on the show!
Was she even given the complete script at the time of signing up? Or was that something they wrote in after they found their Rosalina?
Do you look at the Castle and wish you could see the suite again?
Bruh i was just saying wtf is it called naked brothers? Wtfffffff
The boys themselves came up with that name longe before the show but they should have been told nicely that they could have a better name.
@@anonymousfan1008I said the same thing Alexa was making me laugh spelling out naked
There are actresses who put it in their contract to not have kissing scenes, or to refrain from using certain words. If a parent doesn’t want to advocate for their kids, they should get an agent to make sure the demands are met. No one should accept a role that they don’t want to play. You don’t even have to audition if you don’t like the role.
Alexa Nikolas, realmente te admiro muchisimo por ser tan valiente y salir a hablar sobre tus experiencias además de mostrar empatia hacia otros que desafortunadamente han estado en una situación similar. Te quise mucho como Nicole, pero ahora te amo como Alexa. Saludos de México 🇲🇽 😊
Alexa Nikolas I really admire you a lot for being able to speak about your experience and don't let yourself to be silenced by anyone. Besides showing your empathy to others who had been in a similar situation. You're such a beautiful and a brave soul, I loved you as Nicole, but I love you more as Alexa. You deserve better, greetings from Mexico and sorry 'bout my english 🥰🇲🇽.
At this point, I don't know what if any of my favorite shows as a kid weren't produced by predators besides Scooby-Doo( sure they had veiled stoner jokes but Imo there's a big difference between that and harming child actors)
I know the original creators would not have approved of that awful Velma show. BTW it’s not awful because of its diversity it’s awful because it is just so cringe.
@@anonymousfan1008 I'll be honest idk what the Velma show is/was. With so many versions of the show now I probably should've been specific, I was only referring to the original Scooby do up to " The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo" since that's when I aged out. As a teen I found the first 2 live action films very funny, but haven't watched them since release so idk if they went super sexual (I was a kid when watching it, seeing a talking dog that looked even somewhat real had all my attention and intrigue lol)
Be thankful you have heard of the Velma show it was created by Mindy Kalinig to be an adult version of the show and it’s so bad it has less than 10% on rotten tomatoes.
@@BK32Kingz they did go sexual
When fred swaps bodies with daphne he touches her boobs and looks down her shirt and says something to the effect of "haha nice". So the live action movies did have sexual undertones thrown into them too.
@jakdekayen that is a big example of why some things are not meant to be live action. No wonder it got a bad rating. I also hated it for turning scrappy into a villain if people didn’t like him they didn’t have to write him off that way. And the Velma show is full of sexual that’s another reason I hate it.
I always remember watching this show as a kid and wondered why is the main actress getting with the lead male actor (who obviously looks like a kid) and with a dude with facial hair… even when a kid can see that, it’s messed up
There is a female listed as a producer for The Naked Brothers Band.. I believe Allie Dimeco and my heart goes out to her as well as you, Alexa! 💜 Cheers to Survivors 💜 Keep up the Positive Support everyone!!💯
The first 5 seconds of your video, I was like “ exactly, let me sip my wine” …. YOUR KILLING IT GIRL!
Hey Alexa!! While I totally agree it’s important in identifying and outing perpetrators, like the female exec, just want to highlight the possible trauma that could bring to the survivor by having the public know her abuser. I think it’s a really fine line and just worry about the possible effects that could have on a survivor when it’s the public who releases that. Maybe talk to her and see how she feels about specifically putting a name and face publicly to that horrific experience. Either way, her story as it stands helps tear Nick down!! Which it needs to!! Thank you soooo much for boosting this public info!!
Edit: the community call to action here 14:18 is what made me think of this, love you bro and your survivor centric work.
Kanye told yall...😂😂😂😂
What does Kanye have to do with this
Yikes. Prayers for these kids.
What I got from google: The series' title derived from an incident when the brothers were very young: they came out of the bathtub and said, "We're the naked brothers band!" /// that’s actually kinda cute. 🤣
When I was like twelve I DVRed the Naked Brothers Band’s first episode…i remember my mom thought that I had recorded a porn0 video lmfaoo I had to explain to her that it was a Nickelodeon show 😂😂😂 she was like “oh” 😅
Why was there a kids show even called this🤢
Why did that actor even say yes to kissing a damn 14yr old. Disgusting.
I think it’s crazy that the running joke in the brothers band show is the children’s pants falling down
Well according to IMDb, the female producers listed on Naked Brothers were Polly Draper, Kara Klenk, and Kari Kim.
the name naked brothers band made me uncomfortable as a little girl. I also thought back then the show was real life, like a documentary.
really sad to hear the SA that happened to this young actress.
word of the decade for Sickelodeon to learn ✨️ACCOUNTABILITY✨️
It never made sense…. Omg
The kids named the band. It's genuinely innocent.
but the adults should've suggested they change the name bc it doesn't sound kid friendly..
is naked that bad a word tho?@@rood444
I remember when this show aired. I was 9 and my whole family was appaled by the name alone. My sisters and I watched it all the time as a kid. This is very unfortunate news.
I never watched it but heard of it
Yes i watch zocy 101 as well
I hope Nickelodeon gets shut down
The industry is just sickening al these poor souls they have tortured
I’m scared to be in it
