Also, I feel like Victoria would have said similar things even if that incident had not occurred. They were never known to be the best of friends and there were subtle signs of a feud/competition between them before this whole thing broke out. xP

For the record, I fully take Victoria's side when it came to the Nick rumors. Nick, themselves, actually spoke up and stated that Victoria was NOT the reason the show was cancelled. I understand why Ariana may have been exasperated with the fans blaming her (and that much was Nick's fault for not clearing the confusion sooner) but she shouldn't have lashed out and shifted the blame to someone else. This is what makes me think that there was already some tension between them if she felt the urge to accuse Victoria of something like that. Victoria's #phony #iftheyonlyknew tweet is also very telling.

For me, personally, this was the first outbreak of drama that genuinely stressed me out (it would be the first of many). It already sucked so horribly that Victorious was abruptly getting cancelled and "replaced" with Sam & Cat; especially since iCarly was also ending. So, to hear that the cast wasn't even getting along on top of that made things so much harder to bear.

I've mentioned this before but I don't think Victoria was super close to anybody in the cast aside from Avan. When you hear the rest of the cast talk about her, they say nice things but they definitely don't act like she's their best friend. I've always suspected that Ariana stole Victoria's spotlight (both on-screen and off) due to being so talented and that's what caused a lot of the underlying tension. However, unlike with Jennette, I wouldn't accuse Victoria of being jealous because, as @Sass said, she acts like a lady and doesn't sling mud back at her. Also, she may not be nearly as famous as Ariana but I would still say she has a respectable career of her own to be proud of.

The end. xP
