Britney Spears apologises for shouting at Alexa Nikolas
On the latest episode of the podcast Vulnerable with Christy Romano, Zoey 101 star Alexa Nikolas spoke about her awful experience on the show.
She worked alongside Britney's younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears, who she didn't get on with at all.

Alexa alleged she was bullied behind the scenes, and her mother was constantly having meetings with executives over the situation.
She said on the final day of filming season two, she was told Jamie and her sister Britney wanted to talk to her.
"And Britney's an amazing person! She has apologised to me personally," Alexa iterated before continuing the story.

"Britney Spears apologised, but Nickelodeon hasn't!" She laughed.
Alexa thought Britney was perhaps going to, "step in and mediate," but that wasn't the case at all.
She claimed the talent coordinator for the show lied to her mother, told her he was taking her to hair and makeup, and instead brought her to see Jamie and Britney in their trailer.
"When I open the door, I see Jamie just run to the back of the trailer. And Britney goes, 'Come on in.'"
Alexa said someone locked the door, and then Britney began yelling at her.
"You could tell that it was very unhinged in a way that felt like somebody was manipulating her."

In an apology letter posted on social media this week, Britney said, 'Although I have apologized to you personally just by ‘instinct' my heart at the time didn't know how incredibly good my family was with the ACTING LANGUAGE !!!!'
'Just imagine … me visiting my little sister on her set, last day of shooting, bringing Sprinkles cupcakes … 9 months pregnant, hormones raging like hell.'
'My sister was literally like my daughter growing up.'
