Child actor

There were debates about her name days after she was announced to the world.

Maybe it is slightly different than other child stars, but it almost feels worse in some ways.

You really had a choice here, parents, and you chose the spotlight in this very vulnerable way.

I just personally do think it's all a

And I think it's really interesting.

She's free in her family to deviate from the Kardashian aesthetic if such a thing exists.

that I think no problem I have a slight problem that I'm seeing her being paparazzi'd outside of events swarmed at festivals and the fact that she is having this career I think even for the super rich childhood is a temporary state like you never ever get to repeat it and and literally you know we've had generations of child stars and nepo babies basically as long as we've had modern fame and say, here's a cautionary tale.

This messed me up.

They're told that she took several drugs she purchased from her dealer on a flight from LA to South Carolina the day that, before she died, and authorities believe that she took an oxycodone the morning of her death, and they think that pill is the one that was laced with fentanyl.

That's, it's so heartbreaking when you see this, like child actors, and she really...

I actually just finished, uh, her book.

I got the audible, 'cause I like when they, like, read their own book.

Yeah.

And it's really sad.

Yeah, and we see it all too often with child actors.

Like, she was very young when she started, and that's great, like, her with her boyfriend, 'cause she, the, the father of her daughter, he was great, and they were really good together.

Now, and I will bring up one more thing from that talk from the director.

Despite the fact that many of the child actors in this movie go on to do other things and actually be famous [laughs]-

Yeah

... as adults-

They probably have a slightly larger budget than some movies because it's two episodes.

Yes, it is.

But there's not a ton of set debt going on here for the, like, '80s to the '90s, and you've got a lot of child actors who can only work five hours a day.

And even in the '80s, that was mostly the case.

That is some evil shit to be making fun of, man.

And all the former child stars who don't fall victim to that stereotype live with it.

That's just how I'm doing, making music.

Don't ask me how I did it.

I never did that

before.

So the best analogy I can give about the former child stars who don't grow out of it, who let that be not just their personality, but their essence, the way it was for Howard Hughes, is the theater kid from your high school who graduates but comes back for every high school production.

Well, let's see.

Back to Lindsay.

So by the time she's 16, everyone is ready for baby's first highly publicized cat fight with another Disney child star.

This is actually, like, I also need to note, this is probably the first celebrity gossip I remember.

You know, like, this, because it was, like, my peers.

Lindsay packs her bags and officially moves to Los Angeles, California.

She rented

an apartment with a fellow child star who's very important to me, Raven Simone.

So Raven and Lindsay rented a place.
