Jenna Oretga shares some of the bizarre and frightening aspects of child stardom—particularly on social media—in a new interview
. In it, she acknowledges that “Children aren’t supposed to be working like that” on film sets and how being an actor completely and totally changed the way she grew up. However, “Looking back, I wouldn’t change anything,” she adds. “I don’t believe in that because if anything, I’m incredibly grateful for the lessons that it did teach me.”, offers fascinating insights into being a famous kid.
“It was disgusting, and it made me feel bad. It made me feel uncomfortable,” she says. “Anyway, that’s why I deleted it, because I couldn’t say anything without seeing something like that. So one day I just woke up, and I thought, Oh, I don’t need this anymore. So I dropped it.” Ortega is refreshingly clear-eyed about navigating the bizarre world of Hollywood, particularly as a young person. Not being from an industry family, she became “fearful of other people” after encountering the “strange and intense personalities” of stage parents, producers, and various hucksters who never had her best interests at heart.
