Christy, a possible show for you about the older sister and her husband needing to leave their tweens to your and your brother’s care? That would be an interesting dynamic for a show.

[@12012channel]

Honestly, I don't think she is too young to play a mother of a 12 year old. I'm terrible at math but if I my calculations correctly, she would be around 24 when having the kid. Which is not that young.Yes, it is a little young but doesn't seem like anything scandalous.

Can Disney just hire you to be a part of their executive team? I feel like you would be so trustworthy to the child actors and everyone else to consider everyone's well-being.

[@BrooklynnAlexx]

Agreed!!!!

[@gypsywoman9140]

@@BettyMareeHOHCountry The live-action movie seemed designed to upset fans of the animated series. They changed Kim being a cheerleader and turned a moment of the original into prophecy "the rat will be CGI" and all that. Praise God they stayed close to the original with the theme song. The young actors did their best, the kid playing Ron managed to capture the Ron-nes. It is not the fault of the actress playing Kim that we couldn't see her as Kim; the writers changed the Kim we knew into a Kim we don't know. All we could notice was the differences. This was really unfair to the young actors, as turning animation into live-action is already opening the project up to criticism and being compared to beloved source material.

[@ButterflyPink1121]

Most Disney actors complain about how hard it was, how controlling they were etc, ignoring the fact that Disney made them. So glad to hear a positive take on it.

[@cakt1991]

I think what really helped was Christy’s parents really being present and proactive, which makes all the difference, if you look at which stars made it to the other side relatively unscathed and which ones spiraled. I get the impression, based on what she alluded to about Shia and everything else I heard about him, with his dad being an abusive alcoholic, that Shia was one of those child stars who was expected to be the breadwinner of the family, and that subsequently left him vulnerable to the darker side of Hollywood, not to mention any personal demons that may have festered from his home life. Demi Lovato’s parents *tried*, from what I understand, but Demi also was in a position where they were basically supporting their family, and that, plus these mental health issues that were exacerbated by the intense work schedule and exposure they were under, played a role in creating this mentality of “If I’m working like an adult, I can party like an adult.” They’ve also disclosed some pretty serious traumatic moments that occurred during those years, so I don’t blame them for not looking back fondly. And this is definitely a trend that’s not unique to Disney, if you really dig into it. And I think a lot of others, they see both good and bad, and it seems like something changed once they realized they could make major franchises out of their stars, and I think that didn’t really happen until after Christy had stopped working for Disney as much. Like Miley Cyrus seems to have a lot more gratitude for Hannah Montana, but I totally get where she was coming from trying to distance herself from it, because everyone expected her to be perfect and when she slipped up, she had to apologize, when in reality, it was a part of her figuring herself out, just like any teen should be allowed to do. And I’m sure the Jonas Brothers are grateful for the career boost being associated with Disney gave them, but it’s really a different thing being a musical act and being told you have to act younger than you are and can’t sing about things that are relevant to you, in order to remain “kid friendly.” And I literally saw something recently where media outlets literally spun something Selena Gomez said out of context, where headlines just quoted something about her having “signed her life away to Disney,” so of course everyone assumes she’s ungrateful. But the greater context seemed appreciative of the fun she had, while also comparing it to now with her return to tv and the new role she’s taking on.

[@lisah3460]

And plus Christy and Hilary Duff came from another generation of Disney than Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato.

He was rejected for being underage, but managed to find employment with the Red Cross as an ambulance driver. and by ww2 Between 1941 and 1945, during World War II, Walt Disney was involved in the production of propaganda films for the U.S. government. The widespread familiarity of Disney's productions benefited the U.S. government in producing pro-American war propaganda in an effort to increase support for the war. now think logicaly why would a n.... help americans win a war against germany ? it makes no sense

Disney Channel in general has such a variety of stars that I know of. You Christy are definitely a memorable Disney Channel star who has now an awesome KZbin channel which I appreciate and admire!❤️

[@rigobertoalcantar9519]

I hope one day I can see a video of you and Shia now, just really talking about your times on the show

[@josephe.parker626]

Oh Christy. Hugs and love to you and your family, friends and your career.

SHE IS SUCH A BABE!!!!! - she was always beautiful - but wow, she grew to be STUNNING!

[@ModMudd]

Love how honest and insightful you are Christy! Great things are coming for you! You’re absolutely a legend and worth a lot!

[@PyrusTheVirus]

This was a fabulous video. I'd love a more in-depth one in the future sometime.

[@WildUrbanProductions]

I would love seeing you play a super wacky and fun teacher, like a Ms Frizzle type!

[@tonzyjc]

I'm legit watching Kim Possible atm. Thank you for making my childhood anazing. You've been involved in some of my fav projects from Disney Channel. Absolutely adore you and it's always s pleasure to see you doing so well. Much love fron Trinidad and Tobago

I recently started watching KP and I was so hooked by the series that I watch the whole series in 4 days and I am itching for a season 5

[@robinredbreast9992]

So nice to find your channel and hear these stories and insights. When I was a freshman in high school I plunged right in to ROTC and 3 months in Cadet Kelly came out. It was a whole thing at the time. You were definitely one of my favs from that era. What a time warp to listen to you talk about it. We have a lot in common as well now its just very interesting.

[@orland0110]

Reminder on! I cannot wait for this video Christy!

[@bradleybruvva3021]

I wanted to be a Disney channel kid so bad when I was little. I feel like I can live that life a little through Christy's stories.

[@christycarlsonromano]

❤️❤️❤️

[@briannamoniqueblog]

You could totally play the cool Aunt. Or when you're old enough, live-action Kim Possible Show with you as Kim Possible with your tween spy daughter... Like, it's magic! It would be a hit. But they could do something new. So many families are non-traditional today. The DC execs just aren't thinking out of the box strong enough

[@StramSaturdayDBDBDIB]

I really wish she would have gave her singing career more of a chance. I literally had Colors of the wind on repeat. I dont know, something about Christys rendition of that song just hit different from other artists. It definitely got me through my child hood and i wanna thank you for that

[@basiliskoE]

I've never worked for Disney but I wish I have the chance one day though, I believe in the magic that Disney represents, that "everything is possible even if no one thinks it is" vibe that Disney projects, I just love that

I really thank you for opening up it very insightful. I followed you since Even Stevens and I am a big Disney fan I hope you see my comment! 😊 wish you nothing but the best in all of your work hope to see you in new future projects Disney related or something different! You’re amazing!!

Great video!! I have always been told great things come to those who wait. Your time will come around again. Just has to be at the right moment!

[@EhrisaiaOShannon]

Even Stevens was friggin GLORIOUS!! Lmiao. Love ya Christy! 💜

[@cilibekd]

Christy is too young to play a mom, but she would be so good as a teacher in the school on a show. If she had been my teacher as a preteen, I would have loved her. Such a cool pretty mentor vibe to CCR.

[@christycarlsonromano]

❤️

[@amylee8969]

@ cilibekd I mean she’s 39 now. So she can play a mom. Raven and Chelsea played moms in the reboot.

[@RobAlfieInostrozaLindley]

I'm happy to hear someone had a good time at Disney. It has a lot to do with your family, and how your parents got involved :)

Great to run into this channel, definitely one of the many pinnacles for me as a child growing up was watching you on ES and KP! This is so honest and raw--thank you for this content!

[@appetite4chic878]

You being on KZbin now is gonna get you more social media influence, which will be great for opportunities. I’m rooting for you 👏🏾

[@christycarlsonromano]

Just here to help ❤️

[@clintcalvert9250]

You’re genuine,and surely it will be appreciated again one day in a good project.

[@opienattyvlogs7930]

How do you feel about your daughters possibly wanting to pursue being an actor on Disney channel possibly one day would you let them if they ever wanted to ?

[@christycarlsonromano]

Making a video about this…

[@christinastephens7804]

Well this was nice to hear! Shia’s movie “Honey Boy” (great movie) explains a lot as far as his father goes. I’ve always wondered about real life as a child actor..Like how much do the networks/“higher ups” let these kids just be themselves and how much of their lives are “no you can’t do that”

[@PixelatedJem]

never got to finish it, but yeah the way he portrayed his dad was something else

[@brendonrookes1151]

the thing is your a brand your the product the money if u start doing dumb shit the studio loses money disney isnt what it use to be walt had a good vision but like apple its been corrupted

[@leannereilly]

wow I didn't even know honey boy existed. is it any good?

[@nathancruz9172]

Yes 🙌🏻

[@omar.agmusic]

Have you ever directed/done your own sitcom show? Thought of doing that. An idea is maybe would be to gather people from back in the day. Bring back something of the 90s / early 2000 vibe. I’m rooting for that. It’s my nostalgia speaking by the way as it is with many people who watched the shows. Just an idea ✨

[@VictorSanchez-fk8qh]

Your channel is great! You still look the same as you did when I saw you on Even Stevens. I remember I was a huge fan of yours specially your voice! I still have your Disney EP Album. My favorite song is your cover of Colors of The Wind! Your voice is unbelievable, I I love it!

[@jaggin7561]

I enjoyed seeing the reunion last year.

[@LaineyBug2020]

When she said she wasn't old enough to have a 12 year old I laughed. My parents were mid/late 30s when I was in middle school & I have a sister 4 years older than me. They were 18/19 when they were married, which was the norm back then. Weird how so much has changed that you wouldn't expect and 18 year old today to be able to hold down a job, house & family...

[@ashnoel38]

Yes! I’m 35 with 3 kids. My oldest is 15. So this is very plausible but I can see what Christy means. It’s not as common these days. 😊

[@christycarlsonromano]

That’s what I keep telling them…

[@LuvFearlessly]

Girl, I would HOPE that an 18 year old isn’t saddled with all that 😂 18 year olds are only adults legally. But if not a mom, Christy could at least play a teacher or something.

[@tammiepage6489]

There are still some of the 18 year olds that does all that I mean no you’re wrong there are some 16 and 17 year-old back a long time ago that actually did all that I meant when I was in school my friend yeah she was 15 when she got pregnant she gave birth at 16 and eight, and she still went to school. She held on a part-time job and she didn’t have help from her parents, but she did do all that because my school my high school the time had a daycare for people like her so they can continue to go to school you know and have their kid get out in the daycare while they go to school to help them out so they don’t drop out of school I mean like people criticize stuff like that because they think it’s promoting 10 pranks they know they weren’t protective promoting it and in fact, do you know they try to talk to us about in front of the all the time you know and sex ed and all that stuff but things still happen you know that stuff still happens today I’m not saying it doesn’t you know it does still happen but yeah you know nowadays you do get more older parents but I can’t imagine I’m 37 right now and I chose not to have kids but I’ll be real with you if I had a kid I was up 80 almost 18 or whatever and 76 years old I would feel weird about it to you know honestly it was because I think it’s a weird feeling you know cause specially if you remember your childhood like I was yesterday like Christy Carlson Romano child like it was yesterday so that’s probably why is it weird you know feeling how to get that age because for me too, it would be weird because I could never be in 12 like it was yesterday so bad 12 year old I would feel weird about it too. I would be like I’m too young to be old because you know you think about your child like it was yesterday so that’s why for some people I think it feels weird especially if you remember your childhood like it was yesterday because I know me personally, I feel no different then I when I was 18 because I can remember it like it was yesterday so weird he was feeling the age I’m at now

[@amylee8969]

@ LaineyBug2020 Keep in mind that in Hollywood, they have actors in their 20s still playing teenagers. Even if she wanted to play a mom, they wouldn’t allow her because she “looks too young”.

[@Kat-yz3hc]

Wow! I loved Christy growing up. She looks absolutely gorgeous. I would love to see her in a funny role. Maybe a sitcom or something or a Netflix/Hulu original. Something fun.

[@beckyayabowei1135]
