Candace Cameron on Childhood Celebrity
Airdate: 5/15/2008
She was the sassy older sister D.J. Tanner on the hit sitcom
Full House
. Now Candace Cameron is all grown up. She avoided pitfalls that often come with being a child star, and she had words of encouragement for teen sensation Miley Cyrus, who weather a storm of controversy after posing provocatively for this month's
Vanity Fair
.
"I can't imagine the pressure for Miley Cyrus. We are all rooting for her, we all want the best [for her]. She's the girl that we're all saying right now 'Yes!' She is the one for our daughters to look up to."
And just like
American Idol
finalist David Archuleta, Candace's parents closely managed her career, and that of her brother,
Growing Pains
star Kirk Cameron. In Kirk's new autobiography,
Still Growing
, he revealed that he fired his mom as his manager.
"She did a great job, but there came a time in my brother's life that he needed to move to the next level," said Candace, of the firing.
Candace married Russian hockey star Valeri Bure 12 years ago. Now they have three children.
Candace is starring in a new movie,
The Wager
, a Christian film, starring country legend Randy Travis. And being a child who grew up in front of the camera, she understands the pressures that today's young stars, like Miley Cyrus, must face.
"That is a ton of pressure to have on yourself as a 15-year old. I mean, major!"
