"iCarly," but that changed when
first lady Michelle Obama taped an
appearance on the show.

on the set, I was really nervous,"
laughed Cosgrove, 18.
N ickelodeon and the W hite
House want to show support for
U.S. military families with a cameo
by the first lady on the show.
On "iCarly," Cosgrove plays
Carly Shay, the daughter of an Air
Force colonel who is serving over­
