Nickelodeon stars aren't that much hyped about compared to Disney stars. This would best explain why Amanda Bynes has been desperate for attention judging from her Twitter posts. Apart from Bynes, where and what has happened to former stars of Nick?

A lot of fans rarely ask how former Nickelodeon stars have been despite their popular awards shows. However, thanks to Amanda Bynes latest scandalous tweets, everyone is asking how have past stars have been seeing that Amanda didn't have it so blessed after her Nick days.

Starting off with "Drake & Josh" stars, Drake Bell and Josh Peck, what had happened to these two? Well, Josh Peck has certainly lost a lot of weight and like the stars of "Harry Potter" puberty played a hand with Peck's looks. As for Drake Bell, the actor turned singer is getting on a lot of "Beliebers" nerves. Bell has constantly been picking fights with "Beliebers" with his rude and insensitive tweets to Justin.

Also on the "Drake & Josh" show is Miranda Cosgrove. However, Cosgrove went on to grow up and have her own big break in "iCarly." Yet, the show has already ended last 2012 since Miranda took on the wise decision to head to college.

Also on the "iCarly" show are Nathan Kress and Jennette McCurdy. Nathan Kress like Josh Peck has grown out from the chubby cheeks to a fine-looking young man. There are no projects slated for Kress by Nick this year but the former "iCarly" star still makes an attendance at Nick awards shows.

On the other hand is Jennette McCurdy who has signed on for her own show "Sam & Cat" alongside former "Victorious" star, Ariana Grande. Not much has changed for Jennette but things are the opposite for Grande. During the victorious airing of "Victorious", Grande donned black curly hair compared to her current red long locks.

Not much has changed either for Grande's former friend in "Victorious", Victoria Justice. Justice has taken on the same path as Drake Bell trying her way out in the music industry. The former Nick star is slated to have concerts this year.

Other former Nickelodeon stars that have aged gracefully compared to Amanda Bynes is "Unfabulous" star, Emma Roberts. Julia Roberts's famous niece has gone on to make a name for herself in the movie business and is currently dating Evan Peters of "American Horror Story."
