Ergebnis für "Jennette McCurdy" in Biografien & Erinnerungen

Jennette McCurdy erzählt herzergreifend und mit bitterem Humor von ihrem traumatischen Leben als ehemaliger Kinder-Star in "iCarly" und der krankhaften Beziehung zu ihrer Mutter. Seit sie denken kann, wird Jennette von ihrer Mutter beherrscht, emotional erpresst und psychisch wie körperlich missbraucht. Das einzige, was Debra sich für ihre Tochter – aber vor allem für sich selbst – wünscht, ist Jennettes Erfolg als Fernseh-Star. Für Jennette beginnt ein Kreislauf aus Castings, Angstattacken und Selbsthass.
