Victoria Justice Speaks Out on Dan Schneider and 'Quiet on Set' Allegations

"I think if he could step back into a time machine, he would do a lot of things differently."

Victoria Justice is the latest Nickelodeon star adding to the conversation surrounding Dan Schneider following the release of Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV. The five-part documentary series set the internet ablaze following its release, as stars from All That and Drake & Josh came forward with allegations of workplace misconduct sexual harassment that occured on Schneider's sets during their working years—and now, Justice would like a word.

"Something that was very evident in the documentary is that Dan had a very large ego," Justice told Marie Claire in an interview published on May 15. "Sometimes, that ego clouded his better judgment and affected the way he treated people, and there were times I felt like I was being treated unfairly."

While Justice noted that Schneider never tried anything sexual with her, she did note that a few of his actions during her time on Zoey 101 and Victorious "were in poor taste." She told the publication that she saw Schneider's response video, in which he stated that he owes people a "pretty strong apology." She thinks she's entitled to one, as well—"I would say I'm definitely one of the people on that list."

Justice's feelings about Schneider are complex. While she didn't experience what some of her other fellow Nickelodeon stars did, she acknowledged that Schneider changed her life by giving her spots on his programs.

"I'm not condoning any of his behavior," she explained. "At the end of the day, my relationship with Dan is a very complex one: I met him when I was 12 years old, and he's the person that gave me this big break. He completely changed my life. Most likely I wouldn't be here where I am today if it weren't for him, and for him seeing something in me."

She continued, "For that I will always be grateful. After watching his apology, I think he recognizes that he did a lot of things wrong, and I think if he could step back into a time machine, he would do a lot of things differently."

Justice is just the latest star to speak out about Schneider, with All That's Lori Beth Denberg accusing him of showing her pornography during an one-on-one office meeting and initiating phone sex before she turned 19 in an interview with Business Insider.

In response to Denberg's claims, Schneider issued a statement to that read, "As I have previously stated, there were times, particularly in the early years of my career, that I made mistakes and exhibited poor judgment as a leader. If I did that with respect to Lori Beth, I sincerely apologize to her. But I cannot apologize for things I did not do."
