What is Miranda Cosgrove’s ethnicity?

The School of Rock actress was born on May 14, 1993, in Los Angeles, California. She is the only child to parents Tom Cosgrove and Chris Grove. Her mother is a homemaker, while her father owns a drycleaning business.

Fans of the actress were curious about the actress’ ethnicity. Many initially believed that she was Asian. However, the actress opened up about the same and revealed that she has mixed ethnicity. She has previously revealed on Twitter that she is of Irish, English, and French descent. Her great-grandmother was reportedly Mexican, while her great-grandfather was Irish.

Miranda Cosgrove studied at the University of Southern California in 2012. Although she initially majored in film, she went on to switch to psychology.

She debuted in acting when she was just a seven-year-old. Cosgrove has been featured in several commercials for brands such as Mello Yello and McDonald’s. She landed her professional acting gig when she started working in Smallville.

Cosgrove made her film debut with School of Rock in 2003. Since then, she has starred in big production projects, including iCarly and Drake & Josh. This led to her earning a Guinness World Record as the highest-paid child actor.

A few other movies she has acted in include Despicable Me, The Good Wife, Just Jordan, Spaced Out, and The Goldbergs, among others.

Why did iCarly come to an end?

The show came to an end after Cosgrove realized that she wanted to experience college life. In an interview with E!News, she said:

“I just always knew I really wanted to have that college experience and I’d been doing homeschooling for so long with the show, that it just felt like the right time.”

However, since Paramount+ announced the show’s reboot, fans can expect to see their favorite characters take over their screens. It has been reported that the show will focus on more mature content as the characters have evolved and grown up.

Speaking about what she expects from the show and her dynamics with fellow character Freddie (played by Nathan Kress), Cosgrove said in an interview:

“Now that they’re adults, it’s a totally different dynamic. It would be interesting to see more from Carly’s perspective, how she feels about Freddie, especially now that his character has been through two divorces on the show and has a daughter and everything’s changed.”

Fans of Carly and Freddie call themselves Creddie. It is safe to say that they expect to see more about their relationship in the upcoming reboot.
