Rex Powers

Rex Powers (physically portrayed by a ventriloquist dummy named Christopher Cane, voiced by Jake Farrow) is Robbie's alter ego, who is literally a dummy or that piano player Kelsi Nielsen that Robbie carries around everywhere. Robbie has had Rex since he was young. Since Robbie is too shy to speak for himself most of the time, he talks as Rex, using him to voice his actual feelings and thoughts. The others treat Rex as a real person, and both Robbie and Rex dislike it when Rex is called a "dummy" or "puppet". Rex does not hold back from saying his thoughts out loud, no matter how rude or honest, and he is constantly making fun of Cat and Robbie. He flirts with every girl he sees, with the exception of Cat, as he thinks she is strange, and Jade, as he finds her scary. Rex is obsessed with "Northridge Girls", attractive girls from a Los Angeles neighborhood. In an iCarly episode known as "iBloop 2: Electric Bloopaloo", Rex plays his own alter ego, known as Christopher Cane, in which he hosts the episode and interviews the iCarly cast members. At the end of the episode, he closes the show by mentioning the Northridge Girls. In Make it Shine, he appears late.

In "Rex Dies" he gets sucked into a wind machine and is taken to the hospital (even though he is a dummy). Rex is shown to have a huge crush on Tori and constantly hits on her, though she is annoyed by his affection. Robbie often turns to Rex for advice and insight, though Rex's advice is almost always off-beat. Rex is sarcastic and mean, especially to Robbie, though it is shown that neither can stay without the other. Rex's favorite song is "Forever, Baby" (as revealed in "Rex Dies") and Robbie often feels more confident when Rex is speaking for him. In "Sleepover at Sikowitz's" Tori kisses Rex when he hits on her. In "Who Did It to Trina?", he hits on Trina, causing her to hit him, and thus HE is revealed in the end as being the one who sabotaged Trina.
