Former child stars Beverley Mitchell, Jodie Sweetin, and Christine Lakin on the ’90s, nicknames, and their new lives as Hollywood Darlings
Stephanie Tanner, Lucy Camden, and Al Lambert walk into a mansion … No, this is not the beginning of a joke circa 1997. Instead, this is the photo shoot for the leads of Hollywood Darlings, starring former childhood actors Beverley Mitchell (Lucy Camden on 7th Heaven), Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie Tanner on Full House), and Christine Lakin (Al Lambert on Step by Step).
In the Pop TV unscripted docu-comedy, now entering its second season, the women play exaggerated versions of themselves, once-famous child actors now trying to navigate La-La Land as adults. (Mrs. Doubtfire’s Matthew Lawrence is a guest star.) The charm of the show is completely reliant on the women’s chemistry, and during this afternoon high in the Hollywood Hills, as the actresses pose in glamorous evening gowns, their easy interaction makes it clear why the show is earning them a whole new generation of fans. Between extended fits of laughter, the Darlings trio gab about navigating “scripted unscripted” television, childhood stardom, and the everlasting beauty of John Stamos.
The three of you are clearly super-tight co-stars. How did you originally meet?
SWEETIN: Beverley and I have actually known each other since we were 4 or 5 because we used to do commercials and auditions together all the time. And then Christine … When was that?
