Emma Roberts said the revelations unveiled in Investigation Discovery’s documentary series “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV” are “inexcusable” and called for protections against inappropriate behavior on set for children and adults.

“It’s inexcusable. Kids need to be protected, adults need to be protected,” Roberts, who got her start as a teen actress on Nickelodeon’s “Unfabulous,” told Flaunt in an interview. Roberts spoke from her experience as former Nickelodeon star on the Sue Rose-created show, on which she played Addie Singer.

    she got her start by being related to julia roberts and thats it. When Julia Roberts agent calls a company like nickelodeon they allow the nepotism just like with Gwynneth (mediocre) paltrow, Goldies hawn’s daughter, Elvis’s granddaughter, will smith’s talnetless family ,drew barymore, etc. Shameless nepotism trying to spin lie their parents didn’t get them their job but no spin can change that. They are relics from white hollywood’s racist past as none of these legacy names is a minority and all reaped the benefits of pushing the vision of the white only racist america that also exists today weaponizing hate against minorities like mexicans and jews so nothing has changed aside from the forms of hate and slavery evolving to the forms they are today and these names are holdovers from plantation era hollywood trust funds.
