Nickelodeon star Jennette McCurdy has admitted that her late mother showered her and gave her vagina exams until she was 17 or 18.
The iCarly star said that the experience made her very “uncomfortable” but whenever she brought it up it made her mum “hysterical.”
Speaking in a new interview, Jennette said her mum would stay clothed while “shampooing and conditioning” her hair and ‘washing [her] body.”

Speaking on The Louis Theroux Podcast : “She would give me breast and vaginal exams in the shower and said that she was checking for lumps – she was just checking for cancer.”
This is not the first time that Jennette has spoke about her mother’s strange behaviour.
She has opened up about her troubled childhood during an appearance on Jada Pinkett Smith ‘s talk show Red Table Talk.
The actress had just released her new book, titled I’m Glad My Mom Died, which details the alleged abuse she suffered from her mum before she died in 2013, following a battle with cancer.
A shocking clip from the interview sees the Nickelodeon star read out a section from her book covering a brutal email she was sent by her mother who had seen a photo of her daughter on TMZ.
The heartbreaking letter brands Jennette a “sl**”, accuses her of lying, and claims the actress has put on weight through “eating” her guilt.
She began: “I am so disappointed in you. You used to be my perfect little angel, but now you are nothing more than a little [all caps] sl**, a floozy, all used up.
“And to think you wasted it on that hideous ogre of a man. I saw the pictures on a website called TMZ. I saw you rubbing his disgusting hairy stomach. I knew you were lying about Colton.”

The star told the table she’d told her mum she was with a friend called Colton at the time.
She went on: “Add that to the list of things you are. Lying, conniving, evil. You look pudgier, too. It’s clear you’re eating your guilt.”
Referencing her boyfriend, the email continued: “Thinking of you with his ding-dong inside of you makes me sick. Sick! I raised you better than this. What happened to my good little girl? Where did she go, and who is this monster that has replaced her? You’re an ugly monster now.”
