It's no secret that Nickelodeon stars tend to have a lot less drama than their Disney
Channel counterparts, but the worst of their on-set feuds still nearly shattered our fondest
childhood memories.
We bring you the Nickelodeon co-stars who couldn't stand each other.
Despite Victorious' cancellation in 2012, Ariana Grande's supposed feud with Victoria
Justice is apparently still going strong.
Justice was noticeably absent in Grande's video for "Thank U, Next," which featured
some of her other Nickelodeon co-stars.
Then, Justice mysteriously ditched out on Grande's headlining Coachella set in 2019.
But is there actually still drama between these two former Nick stars?
Or have they smoothed things over?
The alleged feud first came to the surface during a joint Popstar! interview in 2010.
It sort of looked like Justice was annoyed while talking about Grande's singing talent.
Years later, however, Justice tweeted that the drama was "non-existent."
In 2013, rumors stirred yet again when Grande hopped on ask.fm shortly after Victorious
ended with a bold claim, stating,
"The only reason Victorious ended is because [one] girl didn't want to do it.
She chose to do a solo tour instead of a cast tour."
Though she wasn't mentioned by name, Justice did go on a solo tour during the summer of
2013.
That's quite the coincidence.
Shortly after Grande's ask.fm claim, Justice tweeted about an unspecified "friend" throwing
her under the bus and told The Meredith Vieira Show the cancellation wasn't her fault.
"A lot of the other cast members didn't want to go on a Victorious tour anyways, so it
wasn't...It was just kind of unfair, and it was this whole thing."
Justice later told TMZ,
"We're not like best friends, but at the end of the day, like, I wish her well."
Yup, by the looks of it, these two probably can't stand each other.
It's clear that Drake Bell has stumbled upon some hard times since the end of Drake & Josh,
but at one point, he didn't even have his on-screen brother to rely on.
While Bell was allegedly getting DUIs and filing for bankruptcy, Josh Peck was expanding
his on-screen portfolio and building a YouTube presence.
It seemed like the pair were naturally growing in different directions, and some wedding
drama was enough to nearly derail their friendship for good.
There's no denying that our childhood selves always thought Bell was going to be Peck's
best man, but it turns out the star wasn't even invited to his Nickelodeon bro's 2017
nuptials, and he was livid.
Following the news, Bell tweeted the following:
"When you're not invited to the wedding the message is clear...True colors have come out
today...Ties are officially cut.
I'll miss you brotha."
Talk about a major snub.
Thankfully, the pair managed to work it out.
In an interview with Digital Spy, Bell admitted that Peck didn't think he'd want to come and
left the guest list decisions to his wife, saying,
"Josh and I have had way bigger spats and have been in much more 'I'm never going to
talk to you' moments.
And then a week later, we're inseparable.
I can't get away from him."
Ah, the true love-hate balance of brotherhood.
In 2012, All That fans poured out a cold beverage...
"Orange Soda!"
(yeah, that was it) to mourn the loss of one of the most dynamic Nickelodeon duos.
Kenan and Kel, in all their Good Burger glory, were apparently no more.
It all started when Kel Mitchell told TMZ,
"[Kenan] does not want to be seen with me in any form of media, or even have my name
mentioned around him."
In a 2014 interview, he admitted they hadn't spoken since 2007 or 2008 and weren't even
Facebook friends.
Ouch.
Apparently, it was the rumor mill that caused their issues in the first place.
While speaking with People in 2015, Mitchell denied the feud.
Ultimately, Mitchell got Thompson's phone number from All That co-creator Dan Schneider,
the two hashed it out, and we got a glorious Kenan & Kel reunion on The Tonight Show.
"Yeah, why don’t you give me one of them Good Shakes while you're at it."
"Ah!
You wanna good shake?
I'll give you a good shake!
Oh, I'll give you one!
A-shake-a-shake-ah!"
"Ah!
Hey!"
Jennette McCurdy and Ariana Grande played best friends on Sam & Cat, but it seemed like
they didn't always get along behind the scenes.
The former iCarly star ignited feud rumors when she posted a TwitLonger about ditching
a friend who was a, quote, "leech for drama and gossip."
McCurdy claimed the pair liked to go to amusement parks, watch movies, and have sleepovers before
she decided that being around that person made her "the worst version" of herself.
As J-14 pointed out, in the past, McCurdy claimed she loved to go to amusement parks,
watch movies, and have sleepovers with Grande.
Interesting.
That same year, McCurdy made headlines for ditching the Kids' Choice Awards, where Grande
ended up winning an orange blimp award for her performance in Sam & Cat.
According to TMZ, McCurdy was allegedly angry that Grande had a bigger paycheck.
But in an interview with E! News, McCurdy did her best to dispel feud rumors, stating,
"Some like drama and I think we butted heads at times."
Fortunately, their fights always happened in a, quote, "very sisterly way."
Hey, if you love and hate your sister at the same time, that's how you know the bond is
for real.
Alexa Nikolas’ feud with her Zoey 101 co-star Jamie Lynn Spears wasn't just any feud.
According to Nikolas' live-stream in 2019, it was so traumatic that it ultimately resulted
in her vomiting in her trailer.
So, what actually went down?
In the stream, Nikolas admitted that she was always left out by Spears and would eat lunch
in her trailer with her mom because nobody would sit with her.
"You can’t sit with us!"
Then it got worse.
"But it started to escalate.
They would, kind of, team up together and tell me that I was, like, an alien."
The star even claimed that it got to the point where she was accosted by Britney Spears,
who threatened to ruin her career.
A reported on-set snitch told Page Six the pop star had called Nikolas an "evil little
girl."
Sheesh.
The episode made Nikolas so upset that she apparently threw up.
She later felt, quote, "horrified by the whole experience."
This certainly trumps our middle school drama, and it's safe to say that Nikolas and Jamie
Lynn never became actual friends.
