And at the time, I put something in the bra of what I was wearing because I wanted to look like I had bigger boobs,” theDespicable Meactress recalls. “I was jumping on the trampoline and one of them flew out. It was a little thing, I don’t even remember what. It was a cutlet or some little thing. … It flew through the air and they yelled, ‘Cut.’ And nobody really knew what happened. I knew, of course.“Afterward, Cosgrove was “running around looking for it.” But her costars were also investigating the situation, attempting to figure out what had actually happened.“I found it and I think I stuck it in my pocket or something. AndNathan [Kress]at the time kept saying, ‘What was that? What flew through the air? What was that?’ He would not let it go because he just wanted to figure it out, and he didn’t have any idea what it was,” she continues. “And I thinkJennette [McCurdy]knew.

Miranda Cosgroveis looking back on a relatable, yet “really embarrassing,” moment from her youth.
While filming the originaliCarlyseries, the 30-year-old actress tells PEOPLE she had an on-set mishap that involved a chicken cutlet bra insert.
“When I was maybe probably 13, I had to jump on a trampoline for one of the web show things. And at the time, I put something in the bra of what I was wearing because I wanted to look like I had bigger boobs,” theDespicable Meactress recalls. “I was jumping on the trampoline and one of them flew out. It was a little thing, I don’t even remember what. It was a cutlet or some little thing. … It flew through the air and they yelled, ‘Cut.’ And nobody really knew what happened. I knew, of course.”
Afterward, Cosgrove was “running around looking for it.” But her costars were also investigating the situation, attempting to figure out what had actually happened.
“I found it and I think I stuck it in my pocket or something. AndNathan [Kress]at the time kept saying, ‘What was that? What flew through the air? What was that?’ He would not let it go because he just wanted to figure it out, and he didn’t have any idea what it was,” she continues. “And I thinkJennette [McCurdy]knew.

It wasn’t until maybe “six months ago” or so that the “Kissin U” singer finally brought it up again with Kress, 30, and disclosed what had actually happened.
“I was telling the story and Nathan was like, ‘I have no idea what you’re talking about. I don’t remember that,'” she recalls. “But it was literally one of my most embarrassing moments on set. … A whole crew of people and a cutlet flying through the air wasn’t my best moment.”

Stepping back into the role was familiar territory for Cosgrove, who feels she’s “a lot like the character Carly in real life.”
“I’m so similar to her, there aren’t a lot of differences. But one of the main differences would just be, I think she’s even more positive and kind than me,” she says. “I feel like when she meets people and if someone does something bad to her, she, for a long time, tries to believe that they’re good and that they’re not actually that bad until she finally realizes and turns.
