The Real Jennette McCurdy Far From iCarly’s Sam

Jennette McCurdy has not let the narcissistic character she plays on iCarly bring her down in real life. Thank God. That’s just her being Sam. But I much prefer the real McCurdy who you can get a glimpse of in this making-of video for her debut country video, “Not That Far Away.” It’s been a year and a half since I first wrote about the young star launching a country career after all those episodes of iCarly on Nickelodeon. And it’s been 10 years since McCurdy got her first taste of Nashville’s charms when she played Faith Hill’s daughter in the video for “The Way You Love Me.”McCurdy’s video debuts on Saturday (Aug. 14) and was directed by Roman White, the man behind “Fifteen,” “You Belong With Me,” “Before He Cheats,” “Last Name,” “Just a Dream,” “So Small,” “Hillbilly Bone” and many more. So I think it’s safe to say, this video will be huge.
