She expanded into music mid-2008 with iCarly's soundtrack, performing four songs including the theme "Leave It All to Me"; her 2010 debut studio album Sparks Fly peaked at number eight on the Billboard 200, with "Kissin U" reaching number 54 on the Hot 100 and earning gold certification. Beyond sitcoms, Cosgrove voiced Margo in the Despicable Me franchise films, her highest-grossing work, beginning in 2010. She starred in independent films including The Intruders (2015), 3022 (2019), and North Hollywood (2021), and has hosted CBS's Mission Unstoppable since 2019.
