Actress Keri Russell has opened up on the double standards on The All New Mickey Mouse Club, saying executives didn’t want “pregnant Mouseketeers” on the show, so girls were cut when they looked “like they were sexually active.”
Russell, 48, who first appeared on the show in 1991 when she was 15 and left at the age of 17, told Jesse Tyler Ferguson on his podcast Dinner’s on Me that she finds it “bizarre” that she was on the show alongside the likes of Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and Ryan Gosling.
“Was there a cutoff age where, like, after you turned 17, you can no longer be on it?” Ferguson, 48, asked Russell.
