“iCarly” star Jennette McCurdy drops her new memoir, “I'm Glad My Mom Died”, tomorrow . . . and it really sounds like a must-read.
In a new excerpt published over the weekend, Jennette describes being harassed by a male boss she identifies only as “The Creator”. Shouldn’t they at least try to report to some sort of ethical standard?” She writes, quote, “My shoulders do have a lot of knots in them, but I don’t want The Creator to be the one rubbing them out.
The former iCarly actor is ready to tell the truth about being a child star: It sucked.
“Bulimia was really the thing that was my form of avoidance, it was my form of distraction,” she said. She wants to be clear, and she wants to tell the truth. “There was so much fear around adulthood, and there was fear around making my own decisions because I felt like I’m incapable,” she said. “She just had a way of making anyone believe in themselves,” McCurdy said, hunching over a bit to imitate her mother. “I just felt it,” she said. “I was grieving the version that I wanted her to be, and then it’s what my therapist referred to as ‘regrief’ once I came to terms with who she actually was,” she said. “I believed that she was in some way living for me. She is who she is and I just try not to fight it, and I want to be there for you kids,’” she said. McCurdy writes in the book that her grandmother was bombastic and irate; she calls McCurdy a bitch and often berates her in a way that you can tell she once berated her own daughter. She has a limited relationship with both the man who raised her and her biological father (both of whom she writes about in her memoir with warmth but distance). In her memoir, the male adults in her family are simply trying to get by with as little resistance as possible. I’m Glad My Mom Died is a decadeslong account of a young famous person and all the things she had to give up in order to be famous so early: a normal dating life, a healthy relationship with her body, a nurturing dynamic with her parents. But McCurdy didn’t become a child and teen star on her own; she was guided by her mother, Debbie, who raised her in Orange County with the intention of making her daughter a famous actor.
