@popculturehq_: Jennette McCurdy is best known for playing the hilarious and sarcastic Sam Puckett on Nickelodeon’s iCarly from 2007 to 2012, and later Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande. She became one of Nickelodeon’s biggest young stars, but behind the scenes, she was dealing with difficult experiences that she later opened up about. After stepping away from acting, Jennette found a new path through writing and directing. Her 2022 memoir I’m Glad My Mom Died became a major bestseller and gave readers a much deeper look at her childhood and life as a child star. She has since focused on writing rather than returning to acting, and her career has evolved far beyond the Sam Puckett character that made her famous. #jenettemccurdy #imgladmymomdied #fyp #viral
