Alexa Nikolas who played Nicole Bristow on Nickelodeons Zoey 101 is taking her long-fought opportunity to keep speaking out against the abuses she endured as a child star.

Nikolas who gained wider recognition after coming forward with allegations against Jonah Hill last month after being inspired by Sarah Bradys admirable actions against the Superbad star got candid during an episode with the H3 Podcast Wednesday about why she decided to leave her hit Nickelodeon show after just two seasons. (The show had a four-season run from 2005 to 2008.)

According to Nikolas, a big reason why she left was due to the constant bullying she endured from the shows star Jamie Lynn Spears .

I got put through the wringer on that show, it was a pretty bad three years, Nikolas said in the podcast. Jamie Lynn Spears just created a very toxic, unhealthy work environment.

Later on in the episode, Nikolas went into detail about her experiences with Spears on the show, saying that she is still unclear about what the conflict was exactly but that Spears just didnt seem to really like me from day one.

Nikolas describes her personality as bubbly and thinks her demeanor didnt really gel with Spears.

And she was just very taken aback by my personality, I think, and just kind of gave me the cold shoulder, Nikolas said. She added that she didnt take Spears behavior towards her personally at first, and just figured Spears was shy, or was weary towards new people due to her older sisters fame.
