Madisyn Shipman is someone who gained prominence on the television show Game Shakers. For those who may not know, this was a show on Nickelodeon that was quite popular. Shipman was one of the show's stars, and overall, fans loved her. However, Shipman has made a bit of a career pivot that has come as a huge surprise to many. Over the weekend, she decided to pose for Playboy as part of their new creator platform. In an interview, Shipman revealed exactly why she did it.
“I have always felt a sense of repression in terms of my sexuality and showing my body,” Shipman explained to Fox News Digital. “And I think a lot of that is because I grew up on a Nickelodeon show. You’re taught that you can’t wear crop tops, you can’t show too much skin [and] you’ve got to be presented as a little girl constantly. And whenever that ends, I had a little bit of an identity crisis because I didn’t know who I was.”

You should be your #1 priority. As for the naysayers. We all encounter them in life. Hurt people hurt people.
