You’re currently in Puerto Rico filming the Princess Protection Program. What’s Puerto Rico like?
It’s beautiful! The weather is nice, although it does sometimes rain but I really love it! People are so nice!
So what’s Princess Protection Programabout?
It’s about a princess who gets taken by the princess protection program and she has to learn how to be a normal teenager. I play Brooke, who is one of the popular girls. She’s a little bit mean but she’s funny and you’ll come to love her! She’s mean to Rosie and Carter…
Are you anything like Brooke?
I am in some ways, but mostly no. She’s a little bit ditzy and I have moments like that too. As far as being mean and popular…I wasn’t popular in high school and I wasn’t mean.
So was it fun playing a character like Brooke?
Yeah! It’s always fun to play something that you’re not. You get to be a different character! It’s a lot of fun!
Do you have any memorable moments from set?
I think mostly the cast. I have so much fun with everyone and everyone has their own unique personality…just hanging out and working with everyone has been a blast!
Did you have any embarrassing moments on set?
There was one day…it was raining and I was running to get out of the rain and I fell right on my butt in front of everyone! I was so embarrassed! Everyone was laughing and it really hurt too!
So are the cast really close?
Yeah! We’re really close! I was really close friends with Selena so I’ve known her for the past couple of years! I also knew Kevin Schmidt; he’s like my brother. When everyone met each other, we all hit it off really well. We all hung out around the hotel and had a lot of fun!
What are the best and worst parts of acting?
The worst is probably the audition probably because there are a lot of people in the business and you have to go to auditions and get rejected. It’s worth it once you book a job. Actually getting the job and working on it and meeting people is the best part!
So apart from acting, you have your own T-shirt line! So where are they sold?
I’m working on getting them in stores, but you can buy them online at www.liveinlovebrand.com
So what inspired you to start the line?
I’ve always been creative…Coming from a small town in Texas, I didn’t have much to do so literally all I’d do was just sit in my room and draw, make things and be creative. I had some time off from acting so I decided to start a clothing line! I wanted to do something positive and to make something with a good meaning!

Are you thinking of expanding your line into other things apart from T-shirts?
Yes I am! If it goes well, I definitely want to do sweatpants, hats, jewellery etc.
If you had to pick, would you rather continue with your clothing line or acting?
I will always be acting…it’s my passion and my dream! The clothing line is something that comes on the side…I will definitely keep both up!
And now…it’s time for the random questions!
