We all look up to Disney Channel stars. Their lives look so amazing and lavish. The fame, the fortune, what more could they ask for? But is being a Disney Channel darling really all that it’s cracked up to be? Here is the true story of What It’s Like to Be a Disney Channel Star.
For some actors and actresses, being on the channel gave them body issues. Raven Symoné was told that she was too fat to tour when she first started out in her Disney music career. Demi Lovato already had body image problems before signing on for “Camp Rock,” but they only intensified during her time with Disney.
For other stars, the ride is quite lonely. People often confuse stars for their characters and believe that the actor or actress should be just like their character in real life. Hilary Duff revealed that even years later people still call her Lizzie McGuire and Ross Lynch said that people always think they know him before they meet him because of his character in “Austin & Ally,” which doesn’t allow you to build real friendships.
For others, life as a Disney star has been a necessary step in building their career. Debby Ryan said that Disney has been very supportive of her and helped her to grow in her career. Zendaya has also had the same experience and because of it has grown to produce a show.
Whether it’s people making up things about your life, struggling to make friends, or growing up in front of the world, there are several aspects to being a Disney star that a lot of people don’t know. Stay tuned to What It’s Really Like to Be a Disney Channel Star to find out which Disney besties were initially pitted against each other.
