Many fans considered Tori Vega to be the real main character of the show. Vega was accepted into the Hollywood Arts High School after performing in place of her sister at a very important showcase. While at the school, she quickly befriended the rest of the Victorious cast, including Cat Valentine, Beck Oliver, and Jade West. While at the school, Tori discovers her passion for singing and develops into an aspiring musician. 

Victoria Justice earned her big break as an actress on Nickelodeon. Before starring in Victorious, Justice played Lola Martinez on the hit show Zoey 101. However, her career began to take off after Victorious, and she even started making a name for herself in the world of music.

In 2019, the star featured alongside Lana Condor (from To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before) in Summer Night. She also made appearances in Man With a Plan, American Housewife, and Queen America. It might also be worth noting that Justice once admitted that she would gladly appear in a Victorious reunion show.

Cat Valentine was one of the eight main characters who starred in Victorious. She was known to be a rather bubbly, ditzy, and dimwitted girl, but this made viewers love her even more! Valentine attended the Hollywood Arts High School and was known for her small size and an incredibly big voice. Ariana Grande did a great job playing Valentine and developed quite a fanbase after the show ended. 

Ariana quickly rose to fame after starring in Victorious. Her acting ability and amazing voice gained her plenty of attention while she was on the show. However, her career was only just beginning after the show came to an end in 2013.

Beck Oliver was one of the most popular characters to star on Victorious. Oliver was in an on-again-off-again relationship with Jade West and even had a romantic connection to Tori Vega. 

This character was a fan-favorite and earned Avan Jogia plenty of success. Jogia rose to fame after playing Beck in the TV show. Before Victorious, the actor played in a sci-fi series called Caprica. However, this show only lasted for one season, and Avan began focusing all of his attention on the popular Nickelodeon series.

Jogia has starred in a few more series and movies. In 2017, he played the love interest of Victoria Justice in the movie The Outcasts

Also, the actor and writer played Berkeley in the popular movie Zombieland: Double Tap. Like Justice, Jogia also admitted that he would love to do a Victorious reboot to see where the characters' lives are now.

Avan proved to the world that he is a man of many talents. Since the end of Victorious, Jogia has branched out from acting and has found success in various ways.

For example, the actor released a book called Mixed Feelings: Poems and Stories in October of 2019. The book included interviews with people of mixed race, describing how they grew up struggling with an identity crisis. 

Elizabeth Gillies Starred As Jade West

Jade West was seen as the tough, unhappy, and sarcastic character of the group. She was in an on-again-off-again relationship with Beck Oliver, a relationship that many fans shipped. West didn’t get along with Tori Vega, too well - in fact, throughout the series, they were referred to as frenemies. 

Elizabeth Gillies played the role of Jade incredibly well. In fact, she was one of the most popular characters on the show. Gillies took the opportunity to show the world how naturally talented she is when it comes to acting.

After Victorious ended, Gillies took her acting to a whole new level. The star featured in the iCarly crossover and a few episodes of Sam & Cat. You may remember her from her wildly iconic role as the slightly sardonic and sarcastic high school friend on Victorious. However, outside of the Nickelodeon world, Gillies featured in many other successful television shows, including Big Time Rush, Winx Club, White Collar, The Penguins Of Madagascar, and Make It Work! 

Arguably her biggest project since Victorious has to be the reboot of Dynasty, which premiered in 2017. Elizabeth is currently 27 years old and continues to work hard at expanding her career. The star is still working on a fourth season of Dynasty, a show which has achieved plenty of success. Gillies is still great friends with Ariana Grande and even appeared in her music video for "Thank u, Next". 

Matt Bennett Starred As Robbie Shapiro

Robbie Shapiro was a very dorky yet likable character. It's possible we all knew someone like him in high school. He was often picked on and teased by the rest of the group for his nerdy appearance and peculiar habits (such as carrying a ventriloquist doll around with him at all times). However, he was known for being a very good friend, regardless of how shy and strange he was. Robbie Shapiro was played by the very talented Matt Bennett. 

The character and actor seemed like the perfect match, as both had a strange yet lovable personality. Like much of the cast of Victorious, Bennett got his big start after featuring in the popular Nickelodeon series. Let's take a look at a more sophisticated role that he took after his years on Victorious.

Since the end of Victorious, Bennett has dedicated himself to a few different projects. Like most of the Victorious cast, he made an appearance in two episodes of iCarly and Sam & Cat

This actor also played Josh Wolowitz in an episode of The Big Bang Theory. Bennett has appeared in Grey’s Anatomy, Fresh Off the Boat, and Shameless. Like Gillies, Matt played the love interest of close friend Ariana Grande in her "One Last Time" music video. The actor currently plays Gavin Landers in American Vandal

Conclusion

Victorious was one of the most popular Nickelodeon shows between 2010 and 2013. The cast of the series rose to fame due to the popularity of the show, and they have continued to work on their careers since it ended. 

Some have continued to improve their acting abilities on various TV shows and movies, whereas others have become successful singers and writers. No matter where they find themselves today, one thing can be clear - they have found some great success after their teen years.
