Cosgrove stated that I got a 45-minutelesson from Jim O'Rourke of Sonic Youth on how tosing badly. I've been taking singing lessons for aboutfive years, so getting to sing badly was new.

    Nathan Kress

    Nathan Karl Kress (born November 18, 1992) is anAmerican actor, director, and former professional childmodel. Kress has acted since the age of three and isknown for his role as Freddie Benson on the Nickelodeontelevision series iCarly.In 2014, he co-starred in his first major film, Into theStorm, and directed the Henry Danger episode, CavedIn.[1]

    3.1 Early life

    Kress was born on November 18, 1992, in Glendale,California.[2][3] He has two older brothers, Andrewand Kevin, neither of whom are involved in showbusiness.[4][5]

    Kress began his professional career at the age of fourwhen he displayed a natural talent for memorizing andre-enacting the shows he saw on television, promptinghis mother to take him to an open "cattle call" showcasewhere he was quickly signed with a talent agent.[4][5][6]Over the next three years, Kress modeled for various printadvertisements, as well as performing in numerous com-mercials and voice-over roles; the most notable of whichwas his dual role as the voices of Easy and Tough Pupin the 1998 feature film Babe: Pig in the City.[3][5][6][7][8]At the age of six, he decided to take a break from act-ing and return to regular school, where he led a relativelynormal life for the next five years until deciding to re-turn to acting professionally at the age of eleven.[5][6][7]

    3.2 Career

    At the age of eleven, Kress was cast in the lead role asThe Emperor in a school production of The EmperorsNew Clothes.[5] The role rekindled his interest in perform-ing, and at the end of his fifth grade school year, he askedhis parents if he could be home-schooled so he could re-turn to acting.[5][7] A mutual friend of Kress from schoolput him in touch with an agent, and after attending a sum-mer acting boot camp, Kress was soon going on realprofessional auditions once again.[5][6][7]

    In April 2005, Kress made his first live television ap-pearance since returning to acting in a comedy sketchon Jimmy Kimmel Live! where he played a young SimonCowell of American Idol, and would continue to appearin various comedy sketches on the show a total of 5 timesover the next year.[3][9] Kress continued to land steadywork over the next two years, appearing in guest-starringroles on dramatic series such as House M.D., Standoff,and Without a Trace as well as the Disney Channel com-edy series The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.[3][4][9][10] Kressalso appeared in several short films including Pickled,Magnus, Inc., and Bag, for which he was awarded a 168Film Festival Jury Award for his portrayal of a small-frydrug dealer with a conscience.[5][9][11] In addition to live-action roles, Kress continued to work as a voice-actor,lending his voice to various characters in the animatedfeature film Chicken Little and on the Nickelodeon ani-mated series Shuriken School.[9]

    In February 2006, Kress landed a small role on the popu-lar Nickelodeon family series Drake & Josh.[3][4][5][6][12]He played the role of Toplin, a geeky kid at a birth-day party with a crush on Drake and Joshs younger sis-ter Megan Parker (played by Miranda Cosgrove) in theepisode Battle of Panthatar.[4][6][9] Kress did not know itat the time, but this small role would lead to an opportu-nity that would catapult him to stardom.[4][5][6][13] Whilefilming his scenes for Drake & Josh, television show cre-ator and executive producer Dan Schneider took an in-terest in him and called him over to talk with him and tointroduce him to some network executives.[3][5][6] At thetime, Schneider was developing a new series for Nick-elodeon, and was on the lookout for someone to play oneof the lead roles in the untitled project, which would laterbecome known as iCarly.[5][6][12]

    The role of Toplin was similar to a character namedFreddie that Schneider was looking to cast oniCarly.[4][5][6] Schneider had been so impressed withKress performance that he remembered him, and about6 months after filming his small role on Drake and Josh,Kress was called in to audition for the role of Freddieshortly after his fourteenth birthday.[4][5][6] After severalrounds of auditions, Kress was invited back for a screentest with Miranda Cosgrove and Jennette McCurdy and acouple of days later he was notified that he had landed the
