Default Anneliese van der Pol: I served ‘uncomfortable’ Ashley Tisdale

https://twitter.com/PageSix/status/1...5Es1_&ref_url=

Quote:
Anneliese van der Pol worked as a waitress after wrapping her initial run on That's So Raven on Disney Channel, leading to one awkward run in with fellow network alum Ashley Tisdale.

“I want to say she was lovely, but...,” van der Pol, 38, recalled during the Thursday, August 24, episode of her “Big Name b!tches” podcast before trailing off. “She didn’t do anything but she was uncomfortable for me. She was so uncomfortable.”

Van der Pol says she worked at “several restaurants” in New York City, including the popular Tavern on the Green “for about a year.”

“I was really proud of myself. You have to do a lot of multitasking, but the disappointment [and] the look, the drop of faces when [people] recognized me was truly gut-wrenching,” she recalled to co-host Christy Carlson Romano. “It was almost like I had to say, ‘I’m OK. I’m actually really happy that I don’t have to audition and am doing something I know I’m good at.’ I know when I clean a table or bring a meal that I can do that and there won’t be any mistakes. I won’t be judged. Essentially, I kind of was judged.”

During one of her shifts, van der Pol “ran into” Tisdale and had to serve her. Romano was in shock over Van der Pol’s admission and exclaimed that she would have left the “fattest” tip possible.

“Well, you would have been like, ‘Oh, my God! Hi!’ She was so uncomfortable,” van der Pol alleged. “Like, I’m fine, girl.”

Romano, for her part, said that she “grew up with Ashley.”

“I don’t know her anymore [but] I’m sure that was … these younger kids that came after us, God love ‘em, but I think we’re tougher,” Romano, who rose to fame playing Ren Stevens on the network’s Even Stevens, speculated. “I think we’ve been through some *****!”

Van der Pol recently admitted that she was asked to leave both 'That’s So Raven' and 'Raven’s Home' in a TikTok video.

That's So Raven's Anneliese Van Der Pol (aka Chelsea) worked in restaurants after Disney fame: 'I needed money!'

Quote:
Anneliese Van Der Pol had to work as a waitress in the years after she found fame.

The 39-year-old actress starred as Chelsea Daniels on the hit Disney Channel sitcom 'That's So Raven' from 2003 until 2007 but work dried up in the years that followed and admitted that she was "nothing but excited" to get the chance to reprise her role a decade later for the 'Raven's Home' reboot.

Speaking on the 'Chicks in the Office' podcast, she said: "I had nothing going on. I was excited about it, I needed the money. I was living in New York, I was living paycheck to paycheck working in restaurants, you know, like everybody else. I was like oh my gosh, I’m gonna be on TV again. I was nothing but excited."

However, Anneliese - who following her stint on the Disney Channel played Belle in a Broadway production of 'Beauty and the Beast', appeared in 'Twilight' parody 'Vampires Suck' and guest-starred in an episode of 'Shake It Up' in 2011 before being turning to restaurant work - admitted that teaming up with Raven-Symone once again wasn't exactly what she thought it would be but remains grateful for the show because it helped her out financially.

She said: "I kind of thought it was going to just be like it was, and of course it wasn’t... I don’t know, we had to be mentors and it really, of course, wasn’t about Raven and myself anymore, as it shouldn’t be. It’s a Disney Channel kids show, it caters to the children, but when I got the call, yeah, I was really excited. I was very lucky, it helped me out a lot. It helped my financially, where I’m in a much better place."
