Dan Benson

as a Selena fan, I hate to, but I can’t help but feel like her heart isn’t entirely in the new show. like the only reason she agreed to be involved is maybe because she feels like she owes it to the fans of the original series? I don’t believe it was a cash grab though - she’s literally a billionaire, just had a movie come out, and not to mention Rare Beauty... it’s just that for years, she tried to distance herself from the show and Disney. yes, she has talked about how grateful she is for the opportunity, but she’s made it clear that she has had no interest in working with Disney Channel again until now.

I can see how David would be in it just for the money - he’s not exactly on the same level of success as Selena… plus, he hasn’t appeared on David DeLuise and Jennifer Stone’s podcast and apparently distanced himself from the show and the rest of the cast since it’s original end.

anyway, I appreciate Dan for explaining the situation, and do sympathize with him for his reason for starting his OnlyFans and choosing this career path. I wish him the best.

well, i feel selena probably has fashion on her radar and only murders in the building is an award winning series. she's honestly better off and probably did it for the fans. i'm not a wizards of waverly place fan and never been (honestly, preferred the hannah montana and that's so raven era) but given its a reboot centered for a newer generation of kids, i mean... i get why.

seeing this tiktok does make me feel a little empathetic and remorseful for my critiques on his content and how he approaches it. given that his nudes were definitely leaked and all around here and how we really don't take in consideration the trauma a lot of actors deal with when things do leak.

then again, there are a lot of actors who got leaked too that still got acting gigs, like tyler posey, cody christian (all-american) and others but i definitely have a different perspective.

still kinda wish he switched up the content a little more but hey

Yes, Tyler, Cody, etc., all had leaks, but producers understand that these videos were meant to be private, but a trust was broken. Cody pretty much disappeared for awhile. It was traumatic for him. But they didn’t become full time porn actors. That’s the key difference.

True. Disney doesn't pay well at all. The pay is simply shitty lol. But it's a great start for young folks starting out in Hollywood. If you catch on with audiences, you can then venture into higher paying jobs. Zac Efron, Jonas Bros, Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, etc. being noble former Disney stars.

Hollywood is a tough business, so it's about luck and timing at the end of the day. Some make and some don't.

Also, I think it’s worth mentioning that David Henry comes from money. I can remember Raven Symone talking about it on her podcast so no matter what happened David was always gonna end up fine. It’s incredibly judgmental of him to look down on Dan when he was never gonna end up in Dan’s position to begin with.

Oh that's true I so forgot how mad Disney is at paying people. But I also that if you work for Disney you'll be recognized way more anyone from nickelodeon and the more popular you are on disney you'll be in way more shows and movies. But like you said some make it some don't
