Ariana Grande breaks silence on Quiet On Set: Ex Nickelodeon star reveals she was left 'devastated' by child abuse allegations after docuseries explored disturbing scenes 'sexualizing' her aged 16

Ariana Grande has finally broken her silence on the Quiet On Set docuseries which divulged many allegations of inappropriate conduct on Nickelodeon shows.

Quiet On Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV has levied several allegations against dialogue coach and convicted sex offender Brian Peck and Nickelodeon show creator Dan Schneider - who worked with Grande - leaving the television industry shaken. Appearing on Penn Badgley's podcast Podcrushed, the star - who had been slammed online for not previously speaking out, said: 'A lot of people don’t have the support that they need to get through performing at that level at such a young age, but also dealing with some of the things that the survivors who have come forward…there's not a word for how devastating that is to hear. Registered sex offender Peck, 63, served 16 months in prison in 2004-2005 after being arrested on 11 charges — including sodomy, lewd act upon a child 14 or 15 by a person 10 years older, and oral copulation by anesthesia or controlled substance.
