This Is What Happened To The Little Girl Who Played Annie

[@TheList]

What other famous child actors should we feature next?

[@samiasegero7113]

The List how am I ur first like

[@susanvance1979]

Shirley temple, the boy from August Rush

[@itsyourboiemilio6577]

The List can you do Peter Ostrum

[@Writterssoul]

@@susanvance1979 well I know the boy from August Rush is now playing the staring role Sean on the Good Doctor.

[@moirashears]

Baby Peggy (who was a silent film star) who's just turned 100.

[@MissLizaMay]

Aside from not knowing how to pronounce John Huston's name (no excuse) you're also wrong about her being "in demand" after Annie. Actually the exact opposite happened. She was stuck under a contract for a bunch of Annie sequels that never happened, that's why she didn't appear in another film for several years and could only do commercials. Really, do your research.

[@kristinaclark4264]

I was just wondering why! Thanks for the insight. Wow.

[@MissLizaMay]

@TheBrabon1 sure, but none of that has anything to do with how poorly researched this video is.

That’s good at least, child stars rarely survive mentally and sometimes even die, but it looks like she turned out fine and normal for the most part due to not being overly saturated

[@eviehammond9509]

Facts & truth are sooo overrated these days!!😃Actually they are almost extinct.

[@ROBYNMARKOW]

Children should be exempt from the "Golden Raspberries";it's more difficult to laugh things off when you're younger & it's just mean-spirited to include them :-(

[@Violetbunnyfish]

I agree. It's really awful to include them. It's public bullying on a nation-wide scale. Only the worst sort of people would do that to a kid.

[@Scottsteaux63]

Have you ever actually met a professional kid? They are tougher than nails and it is very hard to hurt them.

[@shangtsung8881]

I disagree. If you are an actor then you deserve no special treatment from others.

[@ROBYNMARKOW]

@@Scottsteaux63 My brother was a child actor & while it really wasn't his "calling" so to speak he would've been hurt if someone gave him an award for Terrible Acting but it would've also hurt my parents since, as you might know,when something negative happens to your child,u feel it too..Btw,have u actually MET any child actors? Maybe some are like that but its bcuz they're often expected to act like an adult so it makes them act a bit more mature ( on the surface anyway.. )

[@ROBYNMARKOW]

@@shangtsung8881 Think what u want but I still it's wrong to include kids for that "Award".

[@ArtMusicLife15]

Back in the early 90s I was eating at a restaurant in NJ with my family when our waitress came over, and I knew immediately it was Aileen. She was so nice and gave me her autograph. Even movie stars have to have regular jobs once in a while. :)

Pinky Noble me too! She is the best

[@snake9911]

I remember watching that movie in the theater when I was only 19 years old. She sure has grown up. She still has a lot of talent. Great movie. The musical was great also.

[@pixelatedgal7448]

I wonder if the adoption rate went up that year after the movie

[@zestamore]

All of what was said could have been said in like 30 seconds. These types of videos are always dragged for so long

[@kellysuzanne976]

What's up Ikr it's so annoying..

[@cmp4505]

What's up like instead of saying “I took a nap and went to the store for eggs” They’d say “I woke up from a nap, I looked up at the clock, feeling dizzy, it had been 2 pm, I got up off the couch, and dragged myself to the kitchen, my stomach was grumbling, I was hungry for food. Maybe a sandwich? Well, I was in the mood for eggs and toast. I opened the fridge door, and to my surprise, no eggs. My heart crushed, my stomach growled louder, I put on shoes and ran to my car. On the way to the drive, I saw: Starbucks, Dunkin’ Donuts, Verizon, a bar, a hoagies shop, the mall, five below, Walmart, and finally, shop rite. I parked my car, but it was all the way in the back, so the walk was treacherous. I got into the store, and the gush of air conditioner wind hit my face, it was an amazing feeling. I was in the fruits section, so I scurried down to isle 9, the eggs. They had so many kinds! Oh what to choose? Brown, white, quail, so many, I decided to try the white eggs, as I always done before. I speeded through aisles to get to the checkout, it was such a long wait. Finally, I placed my egg carton down, the 12 pack of course, and waited for the price. $16.54 what a bargain! The cashier lady smiled at me, I smiled back, then she put the egg carton in a shoprite bag, and handed it to me. I walked out the doors and took the long walk back to my car. The traffic was horrible. I must have waited 20 minutes before seeing that beautiful green light! When I got to the house, I parked my car in the driveway, and walked inside with the eggs. I carefully unpacked them, and grabbed one egg. The rest was put in the fridge. I then grabbed 2 pieces of toast and put them in the toaster. Finally, I grabbed the egg and cracked it on the pan, watching the goo ooze out, while the yolk sit in a packed bubble. I threw the egg shells in the trash, and flipped the egg over. Making a perfect runny egg. After a few seconds, the toast was done and I ever so carefully put them on a plate. The egg was done as well, and I gracefully put it onto one piece of toast, and poked the top, watching the yolk run down the toast. I walked the plate to the dinner table, and took my first bite. It had tasted like heaven beyond! After the fulfilling lunch, I sat down on the couch, and watched some TV.”

I love the 1980’s Annie❤️❤️❤️ The greatest cast⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@dontfeedmethatbullshit.447]

Little red headed orphan Annie, I loved this when I was a kid. I always thought the story was about a little orphan from Ireland. I think I was 7 when the movie came out. What a voice the kid had.

[@jessycazander1062]

Annie was my childhood! I watched this just about everyday and still to this day, the film hasn't lost its charm!

[@brooklynslife4138]

Plot twist: she's actually Little Debbie

[@desireepeters7520]

My mom took me to go and see this movie when this first came out I was only 11years old ..... I have the little Annie doll some clothes with Annie on it and book on it , I remember my mom bought me the magazine of the movie a lot of stuff in there about the movie I still have it ,I even have the movie on DVD I still enjoy it I am 46 years old big kid at heart🙂🎵

[@ravenel2]

I was a year older than Aileen Quinn, and I could not get enough of this movie. Back in the day when all movies were made into books and vice versa, I even had the Annie paperback novel of the movie. I wish I still had it!

[@mahenonz]

Lucky! I didn’t know there was a doll. I had two t-shirts and a school bag but Mum eventually threw them out 😢. I found the book illustrated with pictures from the movie at a very crowded book sale some years ago and absolutely swooped on it, I think I would have knocked people to the floor if they tried to grab it!

[@marycook1644]

Desiree - My daughter Windi is the exact same age as you . And she loved Annie also ! I paid a friend to make her the one piece bloomers she wore for exercise in the movie. They had Annie clothes patterns . She looked so cute in them . Blessings from California . 🧵 💝 We love you Mrs. Hannagin !!

[@uheartjas]

I was browsing online and found this was made quite recently! This is so interesting, I knew Aileen would live an amazing life. I currently play Pepper in Annie Jr. at my school, and I decided to do some Annie-related research

[@xoInfiniteStripesxo]

[@BenJabituya]

Daddy Warbucks said "Orphans are boys!" in the 1982 film.

[@jass3407]

Smh ?

[@marycook1644]

That is funny you though that . Maybe because she was a Tomboy . When my granddaughter was small we drove by a residence with a lovely Nativity display in the window. My granddaughter said Oh look, it’s Baby Girl Jesus ! My grandson and I looked at each other in shock and started busting up ! Sorry Jesus . 👼 🐑 🐪 🐪 🐪

Can you do one of these on the actress who played Pippy Longstocking? I’ve always wondered who she was and what language she actually spoke.

Oh yes that would be cool

[@autumbreeze1129]

Yeah. Must admit, I have wondered what happened to her. Still annoyed I can't find that movie on DVD

[@carlymorris5652]

Back in the seventies, I played Annie in our local theatre group ..I was twelve pretending to be younger I recall how tiring it was to do it every night for four weeks during my summer vacation . I had to have two nights understudied 'cause I lost my voice , but I swear that girl was far better than me, bless her , they should have used her instead! Hats off to all the girls who worked so hard at this role ! So to all those Annie's , hats off to you

[@amyrakoff5839]

Aileen Quinn....was a very special kid. In her age range and for her time she was one of the most talented kid leads I've ever seen and when you see her interviewed she comes across as the most humble and wisest kid in the business
