But, she says her pleas for help mostly fell on deaf ears, and little was done for Kianna. The former child star theorizes part of the underwhelming response has to do with Kianna being a minority &#8212; it&#8217;s all in the clip.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p><!--\/#cb-e0769e86f47b0aa89dc0aafdb7acfb00--><\/p>\n<section id=\"cb-5c59d80903832db9e5bb3bbdaa982dd1\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-image-block canvas-image-block-permalink canvas-image-block--default  \">\n<div class=\"image-block\">\n<div class=\"img-wrapper\">\n<p>                          <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imagez.tmz.com\/image\/c0\/4by3\/2026\/01\/17\/c00fdabcf98445b393f8003babafdd03_md.jpg\" alt=\"Angelique Bates \" all=\"\" that=\"\" sub=\"\" everett=\"\" swipe=\"\" width=\"728\" height=\"546\" class=\"img-fluid image-block__img-fluid img-aspect-auto\"\/>\n                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p><!--\/#cb-5c59d80903832db9e5bb3bbdaa982dd1--><\/p>\n<section id=\"cb-3daf23fc3910283000d9e6f5980b45dc\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-text-block canvas-text-block-permalink canvas-text-block--default  \" data-context=\"{&quot;section&quot;:&quot;permalink&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;text_block&quot;}\">\n<p>She supported her theory by mentioning another homeless Nickelodeon star was immediately offered assistance when social media videos showing them on the streets went viral. Angelique didn&#8217;t name any names, but it&#8217;s no secret Hollywood <strong>jumped into action to get &#8216;Ned&#8217;s Declassified&#8217; alum Tylor Chase<\/strong> &#8212; who is white &#8212; assistance when people caught wind that he was struggling with homelessness and mental health issues in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p><!--\/#cb-3daf23fc3910283000d9e6f5980b45dc--><\/p>\n<section id=\"cb-ba0e347d3bc4a473143e67e829e16c6f\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-gallery-block canvas-gallery-block-permalink canvas-gallery-block--default  \">\n<\/section>\n<p><!--\/#cb-ba0e347d3bc4a473143e67e829e16c6f--><\/p>\n<section id=\"cb-93bebfe0f21ebccabaa6d54c0e06a6e7\" class=\"canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-text-block canvas-text-block-permalink canvas-text-block--default  \" data-context=\"{&quot;section&quot;:&quot;permalink&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;text_block&quot;}\">\n<p>At the end of the day, Angelique says people involved in the &#8220;All That&#8221; franchise and Nickelodeon really dropped the ball, especially after Kianna made the network so much money.
