Alexa Nikolas is getting vulnerable. The actress, who starred on Nickelodeon’s hit show Zoey 101 from 2005-2006, opened up to fellow child star Christy Carlson Romano on the Even Stevens star’s Vulnerable podcast.
Nikolas, who was barely a teen when she landed the role of high school student Nicole Bristowe on Zoey 101, acted opposite Jamie Lynn Spears, who played the titular role. Nikolas told Romano that during filming, she and Spears accused one another of bullying, but Nickelodeon allegedly didn’t help resolve the issue. Instead of a mediated discussion with a neutral adult present in the room, Nikolas said she met with Jamie Lynn and her older sister, Britney Spears, who proceeded to yell at Nikolas. “It wasn’t OK, because I was a 12, 13-year-old,” she said to Romano.
