Tweeting with the Stars: Child Star Update! (omg!)
She escaped from Witch Mountain, but can she escape from her reality show?
If you've been watching "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" this season, you already know the scoop on former child stars Kim and Kyle Richards.
On the Bravo reality show, Kyle Richards ("Halloween") has angrily come to her sister's defense (Kim was the Disney "it" girl in the 1970s, starring in those "Witch Mountain" flicks) amid allegations that Kim is under the influence of.something. And while it's all playing out before our very eyes, we hope this isn't another case of child stardom gone bad!
But not all '70s child stars have their own reality show where we keep tabs on them. We checked the Twitter accounts of some former child stars to see what they've been up to:
Erin Murphy
The former "Bewitched" star (she played pint sized witch, Tabitha) is now an all-grown-up a mom to six boys. She recently tweeted plans to attend a Denim and Diamonds for Autism event (she called it her "favorite event of the year") and hinted that she's filming a spot for a top secret product with this tweet and photo: "On set. Can't tell you what the product is.YET!" Fun fact: Murphy actually married a guy named Darren!
Scott Baio
Scott Baio is 51 and married. That's right, the former "Happy Days" and "Charles in Charge" star may have documented his commitment phobia on a VH1 reality show a few years back, but since then he's kept under the radar. That may be because he's totally domesticated now, tweeting things like this pic from a fun family day at a pumpkin patch. Chachi seems to be loving fatherhood!
Alison Arngrim
Toto, we're not on the prairie anymore! As a child star she played mean girl Nellie Olsen on the series "Little House on the Prairie." These days, Alison Arngrim is giving fans tweet by tweet coverage of her recent trip to Paris. After tweeting about some train troubles, she posted a dessert review: "The THING they serve in the U.S. that they tell us is chocolate mousse...what is that? There's no resemblance at all." Perhaps she'd prefer one of Ma Ingalls' homemade pies?
Danny Bonaduce
For several years, the former "Partridge Family" kid rocked Philadelphia with his morning radio show, but the station recently turned to an all-sports talk format. So does that mean he's skipping town? Bonaduce recently tweeted a pic of his on-the-market Philly townhome. Asking price: $475,000.
Tatum O'Neal
The Academy Award winning child star did update fans on her tumultuous personal life on an OWN reality show with her long-estranged dad, Ryan O'Neal earlier this year. And although the cameras have stopped rolling, Tatum has been actively keeping fans updated on her life via Twitter. O'Neal is especially good at replying to fans' questions, and when asked if there will be a second season of her OWN reality show, she tweeted, "No I am sorry." According to TV Guide, Ryan O'Neal said of his relationship with his daughter: "We don't speak. In fact, we're further apart now than we were when we started the show."
