In an interview with The Guardian, Jennette McCurdy recalled how her manipulative mother reacted when she told her she no longer wanted to act. At the time, the “iCarly” star was still a child. “She started screaming, tears flowing down her face,” said McCurdy. “She immediately went into hysteria, which was how she often met resistance.” The behavior kept McCurdy from talking about the possibility of quitting again.
