School of Rock star Rivkah Reyes has shared how they struggled with fame when they were a child.
Reyes played the bass player Katie in the hit 2003 movie with Jack Black when she was 10. They shared in an interview with the New York Post about the struggles and
harassment they faced. They admit it put them on a path to drug addiction later on in life.
Reyes, now 28, who used the pronouns they/them, shared an article on the platform Medium last year about what their experiences were like after the movie catapulted her to fame.
Reflecting on their experiences, Reyes compares how they felt to Britney Spears' career in the wake of the Framing Britney Spears documentary release, saying their journey was "kind of parallel with Britney's".
