00:00 You participated in the docuseries.

00:02 Why was it important for you to be a part of that?

00:06 I would say the biggest reason that I sat down

00:10 was for my kids.

00:12 The entertainment industry is not the only industry

00:15 that punishes people for coming forward

00:18 about a toxic work environment or abuse in the workplace.

00:22 Ooh, cute boy to the left, green shirt, backpack.

00:24 Alexa was just 12 years old when she starred for two seasons

00:28 alongside Jamie Lynn Spears on "Zoey 101."

00:30 "Access" was on the set in 2004.

00:32 All right, go ahead and give me your real name.

00:34 Alexa Nicholas.

00:35 And who do you play?

00:36 I play Nicole.

00:37 In the "Quiet on Set" docuseries,

00:39 Alexa brings new allegations against the show's creator,

00:42 Dan Schneider, seen here behind the scenes

00:44 whispering in Alexa's ear on the 2004 set.

00:47 And the most important rule,

00:48 nothing that anyone says or does leaves this room.

00:51 He was really the problem on set,

00:53 well, other than the kid bullying situation,

00:56 but that's also kids.

00:58 So he was the adult.

00:59 Yeah.

01:00 And so it's a little bit of a, you know,

01:02 different scenario.

01:03 And the wardrobe for me

01:05 was always very different than Jamie's.

01:08 Mine was always, like, short skirts

01:11 and, like, fitted tops, even, like, off the shoulder.

01:14 How about this top? You like this top?

01:17 It makes me look chesty.

01:18 Dan Schneider would come into the wardrobe fittings,

01:21 and I would come out, and I would do the spin,

01:25 and then they would take the Polaroid of me,

01:29 and then he would say, "Can I have the Polaroids?"

01:32 at the end.

01:33 Now, when I look back at that, that's weird.

01:36 Why does he want those Polaroids?

01:37 Why does it really matter to him what I'm wearing?

01:41 And he picked, a lot of the time, short skirts.

01:45 The notion that I had the power

01:46 to just produce whatever I wanted and have it air

01:49 is completely false.

01:50 In an interview posted on the Dan Warb YouTube channel

01:53 after the docuseries was released,

01:55 Schneider said the wardrobe on the show

01:57 went through layers of approval beyond him,

02:00 though he did acknowledge and apologize

02:02 for certain past behavior.

02:03 Was there fear around if you expressed concern,

02:07 there would be punishment or passive aggression?

02:11 A lot of being in the industry is discomfort as a child star,

02:15 and what you don't want to be is problematic

02:18 or complain too much or, honestly, complain at all

02:21 because you see what happens to other friends of yours

02:25 that have tantrums on set.

02:26 They don't work again.

02:28 And Alexa has started her own movement,

02:31 Eat Predators, to help end predatory behaviors

02:34 within the industry.
