[BuzzFoto] This overweight child actor on an ensemble kids show is encouraged to continue to maintain an unhealthy weight because it fits her character. Unfortunately for her, she feels very isolated from the rest of the cast because of her weight. The rest of the cast hang out, date one another and have a variety of social gatherings, all of which she isn’t invited to. The exclusion is making her extremely depressed and resort to unhealthy coping mechanisms. 686

I agree.
I don’t know who this is, I just hope it isn’t true. Shame on her parents for having completely jacked-up priorities. :/
Actress: Raini Rodriguez
TV show: Austin & Ally on the Disney Channel.
My first thought was Amber Riley from Glee, but she isn’t exactly a “child”.

Love the site Ace!
Hi DC! Love, Ace
My first thought was the girl from Glee, but I wouldn’t really call that a kids’ show.
Actress: Madison De La Garza
TV Show: Desperate Housewives
not an ensemble kids show
Desperate Housewives is not an “ensemble kids show.”
I’m thinking something from Nickelodeon or Disney Channel.
She’s not on a kids show, and who can she hang out with on DH? She’s only 10 years old.
Since when is Desperate Housewives an ensemble kids show?
This was my first thought, but there aren’t a whole lot of other kids on the show.
Desperate Housewives is in no way a kids show.
XD Desperate Housewives for kids?
I have no idea who this is, but I hope the poor little thing realises they’re not worth her time and gets the hell out of there.
That’s who immediately popped into my mind, but she’s not on a kid’s show.
“on an ensemble kids show”
Desperate Housewives isn’t a kids show. I’m thinking it’s a Disney show.
“Desperate Housewives” is an ensemble kids show?!
This was my first thought as well, but I don’t think DH is really an ‘ensemble kids show.’
This is awful for whoever it is. People not spending time with her because she isn’t as thin as the other cast mates? That’s just gross. And the network telling her that she can’t make changes to her body if she wants to [even though the reasons might be somewhat misplaced - wanting to fit in] because it ‘fits her character’? Ugh.
Anyway, having their thumb completely under their cast mates almost sounds like something Disney would do. I kinda looked around to see what ensemble shows were on [both Disney and Nickelodeon, to be fair] and I found a new show with a girl that’s bigger than her cast-mates. It literally just premiered, however. :/ The description for the character says that she has no motivation and, because of this, her jobs change daily [I'm not saying bigger people have no motivation - I know that to be very much the opposite! But that might be the reason the network is saying it 'fits her character' - losing weight shows that she was motivated to do *something* which wouldn't be in line with her character, who isn't motivated at all].
So I’m going to go with it..

Whoever it is, I just hope they take care of themselves and know that they’re beautiful.
“This is awful for whoever it is. People not spending time with her because she isn’t as thin as the other cast mates? That’s just gross.”
This is honestly what bothers me the most about this blind. That, and the pressure to stay big because it “fits her character”. There’s so much fatphobia, it’s disgusting. Also being fat=/= being unhealthy, unlike what this blind suggests.
They won’t hang out with her because she is heavier then them? Jerks.
yeah its Amber, this maks me sad.
She’s far from a child. She’s almost 25 years old.
*makes
smdh
Raini Rodriguez, she’s on a show called Austin & Ally
Raini Rodriguez (Trish) from Disney’s Austin & Ally?
I’m pretty sure I GOT IT! Although, if it’s true, it’s d*mn sad.
Show: Austin & Ally (Disney Channel)
Actress: Raini Rodriguez (age: 18)
She plays Trish on the show and is quite heavy set. She looks younger than her real age!
The reason why I was having trouble figuring it out, is because it’s one of those obscure Disney programs that not super popular.
This is sad, her parents should help her stand up to the people in charge if she’s being isolated and is unhappy.
I have no clue who this could be, but how terrible for them to treat her like that. Makes me sad.
Disney show Austin and ally not sure the girls name but she’s the only overweight one.
Actress: Raven Goodwin
TV show: Good Luck Charlie
Actress: Raini Rodriguez
TV Show: Austin and Ally
My kids watch this show and this was the first one that came to mind.
I’m sorry, I forgot to add the network is Disney. (why am I always in moderation?)
I’d guess Madison De La GArza but it isnt really an ensemble kids show.
Hmm… I guess my only guess would be Amber Riley, but calling Glee a kids show is stretching it.
Since my 7 year old watches Disney all the time, my guess is Raini Rodriguez from Ally & Austin. I have never watched the show, just see commercials all the time but she always seems to stick out from the rest of the cast. With that being said, that sucks she feels like an outcast.
Could it be Raini Rodriguez on the Disney Channel show Austin & Ally? She’s a bigger girl, and her character is supposed to be sort of lazy and unmotivated, so I could see the producers wanting her to stay overweight…it IS Disney after all. The only thing is it’s a relatively new show so I don’t know if the cast members have really known each other long enough have started dating and having social gatherings off-set, but who knows. She’s also the older sister of Rico Rodriguez, who plays Manny on Modern Family. He was my original guess for this blind, but Modern Family, while it is an ensemble show, certainly isn’t a kids show.
It’s def Raini Rodriguez from Austin & Ally. Ravin Goodwin from Good Luck Charlie is a good guess, but there are less eligible people to date on that show than on A&A, bc GLC is more of an ensemble cast. Also, the GLC cast is always saying how close they are in interviews.
Amber from* glee *if it is her, this is sad as she is a beautiful girl. what a shame . Although *child star* is throwing me abit love u you ace. great site. x
This is so wrong. A child shouldn’t be forced to stay at an unhealthy weight, whether it’s over or under.
Im pretty sure America Ferrera was allowed to wear a fat suit for Ugly Betty when she, wisely, lost weight during the run of the show. Let this girl do the same, if need be…
