Lacey Chabert

Fans of Family Guy likely don’t remember that teenage daughter Meg was originally voiced by Lacey Chabert before being taken over by Mila Kunis. By season three, Chabert simply had too many scheduling conflicts to remain on the show, asking Seth Macfarlane to release her from her contract.

The actress was still reportedly enrolled in school at the time. In addition, she was involved in filming for Party of Five creating a workload that was just too heavy for the actress to carry. At a modest $20,000 per episode, it was revealed that Macfarlane and Chabert remain on good terms, even after the split.
