Kristin Herrera: Why The Dana Cruz Actress Left Zoey 101 After Only 1 Season (& Where She Is Now)
Kristin Herrera's departure from Zoey 101 was abrupt, with rumors of her being too old for the role and bullying accusations circulating. Herrera returned to acting in 2020 after a 12-year break, reuniting with the Zoey 101 cast for a reunion on All That. Herrera also appeared in Resurrection Mary in 2021, though she hasn't acted since and it's unclear if she will again.
Kristin Herrera played Dana Cruz in the first season of Zoey 101, but then she left the show with little explanation. While Herrera left the show with little fanfare, Zoey 101 lead actress Jamie Lynn Spears was a favorite star of young viewers in the early 2000s. The younger sister of legendary pop star Britney Spears, Jamie Lynn's two seasons on All That proved she had a knack for comedy. Zoey 101 capitalized on Jamie Lynn's popularity with a show about a group of teens navigating life at a prestigious California boarding school.
