My dad was 18 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: on set and it was so weird, I know. And 19 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: I was like like physically abusing the guy playing my 20 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: older brother, like five, so you could get it totally. 21 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: They were like, if anything, they were so um for it. 22 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: They were like hit him more, kicking more like just 23 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: for more energy.

I had a long career, 25 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: I know, but I feel like I'm also just getting 26 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: started because I'm only in my twenties. So isn't that's 27 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: so insane to me? Do you remember when you first 28 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: booked Austin an Alley? Yeah, when I went out for it, 29 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: I remember like just wanting it so badly. You watched 30 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: Disney's Kids totally, and also I just like love the 31 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: script and you know, I love music, and so the 32 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: fact that I got to do music with it, so 33 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: I wanted so badly. And um, I remember at the 34 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: end of the test it was Ross was there. He 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: was like the last person there for Austin. Rainey was there. 36 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: She was like the last person for Trish, and then 37 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: there were two people for Ali, me and another girl. 38 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: So it was very obvious for Rosstin Rainey that they 39 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: got it, but for me not so much. That's so stressful, 40 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: so stressful. I didn't hear for a few days and 41 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: then someone called me who was like a family friend, 42 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: and they were like, congratulations, were so proud of you, 43 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: and I'm like, what you hadn't heard. Then No, well, 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: my mom, I guess heard that day and she wanted 45 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: to tell me in person, but she told other people 46 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: so that they to me. And I was so excited. 47 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: I was freaking out. And then we filmed the pilot 48 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: and it went super well, and then you don't hear 49 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: for a little bit, and I remember my mom so 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: obnoxious that I love it. Um, she told me that 51 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: the pilot got picked up at school. I was in 52 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: my honor's biology class and she came with like chocolate 53 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: milk shaking a balloon. Yes, did you come in your class? Yes, 54 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: that's incredible. I know and like everyone in my school, 55 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: like especially the teachers. I was such a teacher's pet, 56 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: so everyone like knew me and it wasn't as disruptive 57 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: as I thought it was. But but that's a huge deal. 58 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 1: Like but like, no one under as a kid, no 59 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: one totally gets that, like any every kid in my 60 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: classroom was like what, like, what's going on?

Like what are these words in this order? 63 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: What does that mean? Um? But yeah, it was definitely 64 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: I remember I feel like so embarrassed. But so excited 65 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: because I knew it was gonna it was life changing news. Yeah, 66 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: I mean being started to show and that I'm sorry 67 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: Austin and Ally. It was a great Disney show. Thank you. 68 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: It was a fun to film, Oh my gosh. Yes, 69 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: it was so fun. It was so much work but 70 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 1: so fun. Um. And I was doing school at the 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: same time, so that was definitely hectic and a lot, 72 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: but so worth it. Yeah. I remember when you told 73 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: me during lunch that you still go to college part time. Yes, 74 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: I do. I'm not going to graduate till I'm like thirties, 75 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: and I think that's so cool. Yeah, it's a lot, 76 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: for sure, UM. And that's basically how it kind of 77 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: works as I take time off. So UM, I definitely 78 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: I don't I'm not going like right this second, right now. 79 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: But the last time was in UM I was on 80 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: was when I was filming The Perfect Date actually, and 81 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: that was so intense because basically I had UM I 82 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: was doing. I was there January and February and the 83 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: Perfect Date was going to start filming in March, and 84 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: so at first I didn't know if I had to 85 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: drop the class and the classes I was in. UM. 86 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: I talked to my teachers and they were okay with 87 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: me face timing into class. So I face timed into 88 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: class and like every face ting to you in and 89 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: the teachers. I would FaceTime the teacher and then they 90 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: would like put me in class and I wouldn't be there, 91 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: and I just remember feeling so think we would also 92 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: like so bad for the other students, being like, who 93 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: is so what it would happen when you when you 94 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: need to raise your hand? Would you do that? Yeah? 95 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: I would do it, and then they would, you know, 96 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: answer to ask and you know, it seemed to work 97 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: out for us. What are you majoring in politics? Philosophy 98 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: and law? So super kind of random from what that's 99 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: what my brother is doing? Really? Yeah, yeah, I love it. 100 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: I think it's super fascinating. And my school that is 101 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: one major, so it's not three majors into one. It's 102 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: like all one major together. It's called ppl UM. So 103 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: I feel like always it sounds more impressive than it is. 104 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: But that philosophy is so interesting to me, so interesting. 105 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: Would you want to be a lawyer or is it 106 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: just to have the education of it? Yeah, just to 107 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: have the education of it. I think I am doing 108 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: I'm lucky because I'm doing what I want to do 109 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: as a career right now. I've been doing it, at 110 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: least for acting since I've been five, and for music, 111 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: you know, starting when I was like sixteen ish. Um. 112 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: And I I am in that position where I still 113 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: want to learn and I still think it's so important 114 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: to go to college and learn. Um. And since I 115 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: have this kind of like unique opportunity, why not go 116 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 1: to college to learn about something that I don't have 117 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: to stress about getting a job in. But still I 118 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,799 Speaker 1: feel like I educate yourself exactly. Yeah, so I'm seventeen. 119 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: What advice would you give your seventeen year old? So 120 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: let's see, Okay, seventeen, I would have been junior year 121 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: um in high school. I would have been on our 122 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: second season of Austin l a um. Um. You know, 123 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: I think it sounds so cheesy, but um and it's 124 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: something that I think we'll be advice I'm giving myself 125 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: every year all the time. But just to you know, 126 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: go beyond your safety net and your boundaries and don't 127 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: be scared, don't be scared to take risks, don't be 128 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: scared to you know, take big leaps and fall on 129 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: your face because that's part of life, that's and it's 130 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: okay to fall and get back up again. See I 131 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: have troubled doing that, Yeah, for sure. Same even still 132 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: it's like the scariest thing in the world to actually 133 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: acknowledge like failure and failing and how do you get 134 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: over that? You know, you just the more you live 135 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 1: life as someone who also has still way more life 136 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: to live, I think the more you see that's just 137 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: a part of life, and you know, you we are 138 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: going to make mistakes and we are going to fail, 139 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: and failure is actually just part of success. Failures integral 140 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: to success. And you know, I try to remind myself 141 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: every time I feel like I hit different um you know, 142 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: missteps or hit different things that I wish I didn't hit. 143 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's a learning experience. It it is, It 144 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: totally is. It doesn't make things easier, but it's just 145 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: important to try to have that perspective. For sure. I 146 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: just respect you so much just because I think it's 147 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: so cool that you're doing everything and you're just even 148 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: if you're like, for example, not only going to college, 149 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: but you're also like managing yourself and making music on 150 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: your own and that's a really scary thing. Yeah. I mean, 151 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: you know, I think for me, there's so many things 152 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: I love and want to do and I am doing um, 153 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: and so it's just about time management. But it's a lot. 154 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: And you know, in any kind of um situation where 155 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: you have a lot on your plate, some things are 156 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: going to be going better and smoother than other things. Um. 157 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: You know, for me, music is us something I absolutely 158 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: love and always just needing in my soul to do 159 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: as even if like that's when you know when you 160 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: love something like you're doing, even if you're the only 161 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: one that would listen to it totally. Um. But it's 162 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: definitely been a complicated road for sure, and um, you know, 163 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: there's always challenges that come by, and I think it's 164 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: figuring out how to deal with it, you know, when 165 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: the time comes and sometimes you know, that's dealing with 166 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: it head on. Sometimes it's taking a second figuring things out. 167 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: You know. For my acting career, I've been doing it 168 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: for so long and it's obviously so much more developed 169 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: than my music career, which I've done really way after 170 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: I started acting. Um, But I just I love music 171 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: so much. I really really did you see what music 172 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: can do. Oh yeah, and I think now more than ever, 173 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: it's actually a pretty cool time to be an independent 174 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: artist and put stuff out independently. It's just it's a 175 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: lot of work. It's a lot of work, and it's 176 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: a lot of figuring things out for sure. Um So 177 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: it's been it's been a pretty cool challenge for myself 178 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: to kind of push myself in figuring those things out. 179 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: And I still am um but I I love it, 180 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: I really really love it. I think it's so cool. 181 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: You also produced too, Yeah, I mean, um so, I 182 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: produced a movie with my mom and sister a few 183 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: months ago, yeah, Saving Zoe. And so since that experience, 184 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: we've been wanting to produce more and we're working on 185 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: a few projects actually right now, which I'm excited about, 186 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: so exciting. That's so crazy. I wanna talk about Saving 187 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: Zoe for a second, because the message in that film 188 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:00,119 Speaker 1: is so incredible. What made you want to, um, focus 189 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: more on a serious topic instead of you know, you've 190 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: been doing a lot of romcoms, which are great, don't 191 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: get me wrong. Quote, this is such a topic that 192 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: needs to be to discuss more. Yeah. Yeah, So it 193 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: deals with online sexual exploitation, UM, which is a facet 194 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: of sex trafficking, which is a facet of human trafficking. 195 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: And it's something that is so big, especially because the 196 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: Internet is like just g enormous and has taken over 197 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: our lives um. And so because of the expansion of 198 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: the Internet, um, sex trafficking has just increased so much um, 199 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: which is incredibly scary and something that is not talked 200 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 1: about at all. Um. But you know, when we were 201 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: first developing this project, we didn't really have this awareness 202 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: or education about the topic. Really. What it came from 203 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: is came from a book that I loved I read 204 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: when I was eleven, was called Saving Zoe, like the 205 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: movie title, and you know, at its core, it's really 206 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: a story between two sisters. And you worked with your 207 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: sister exactly, Yeah, and we played sisters. Crazy fitting I 208 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 1: know again, you know this was twelve th years ago. Um, 209 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: my space was big, and so actually in the book, 210 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: it's more about my space, which is kind of hilarious. 211 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: You know. We took some storylines and update them a 212 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: little bit because social media, Yeah, exactly, where it's not 213 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: in my space. It's we're in such a different world 214 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: than we were twelve years ago.

Well, speaking of technology, 219 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: I just want to say I like that you still 220 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 1: have a footphone.

Um yeah, I mean the idea, there's so 243 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: many kind of things I go into it, but yes, 244 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: the overall idea is trying to have some sort of 245 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: separation between all the incredible but overwhelming things smart devices 246 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: offer and just having a way that people can contact 247 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: me in Um, but it is. It can be challenging 248 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: for sure to have of you know you, even for 249 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: us to like contact each other. Challenging can make me 250 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: laugh every time I'm like, oh it's ex sorry, like wait, 251 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: she is a flip phone. And the thing is like, 252 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: it's actually there's now so many, in an ironic way, 253 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: so many ways to reach me where I almost feel 254 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: like Instagram phone call, where I just sometimes it gets 255 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: so overwhelmed, just ignore everything. So I get that. It's 256 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: like but because with the world we live in, it's 257 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: like crazy, how how it is? Yes, what do you 258 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: think inspires you, um, and I think are real people 259 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: and real stories. Um. You know, I feel always inspired 260 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: when I talk to people, and always inspired when I 261 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: actually have a real life human connection with someone, um, 262 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: because I think we all have such different experiences. But 263 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: what always strikes me as fascinating is that we might 264 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: have different experiences, but we feel the same feelings. When 265 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: we're at our lowest, no matter what brought us there, 266 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: we're feeling the same things. When our highest, we're feeling 267 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: the same things. And I think we have so much 268 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: to learn from each other. So that's what always really 269 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: really inspires me. Talking to people and listening to people. 270 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: That's so exciting. Are you going to be really singing 271 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: music anytime? I am? I am? Um. Yes, Actually, I 272 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: definitely have some stuff planned. You know. I released an 273 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: EP last year, my first independent, my first AP in general, 274 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: but my first kind of world an artist, yes, me Um, 275 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: So I'm working on my second EP, which is kind 276 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: of in that world a little bit. I don't want 277 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: to get too much away, but I'm I'm thinking of 278 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: the me EP is kind of the start of a trilogy. Okay, 279 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: so like you're talking like me part two, Well, you'll 280 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: you'll have to say you're like you. If I just 281 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: nailed that, maybe maybe you're in the world. I don't know. 282 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: It's just so interesting just your life, you know, because 283 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: you've been acting since you're five, and yet you've still 284 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: maintained this, um I'm putting in quotes normal childhood as 285 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: much as you can. You know, going to school, going 286 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: to college? Was it ever hard to balance? And do 287 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: you ever wish it could just be I just want 288 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: to do acting and I don't want to think of 289 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: anything else, or I just wish I could focus on 290 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: school like every other kid. I think I just love 291 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: so many things and I it was a hobby for you, Well, 292 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: I not in a hobby. I just think that I 293 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: have so many things I want to be a part 294 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: of and love and um, so many things that I 295 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: think make me me that and make me me it's 296 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: spot um that I can't imagine having my life without 297 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: one of those things. Um, They've really shaped me. I 298 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: can't imagine my life without school without actually going to 299 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: um a physical school. And I know a lot of 300 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: people my sister included, who was homeschooled or who you know, 301 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: have different kind of schooling things because they had to 302 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: and they are awesome, incredible people. I just knew for 303 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: me it's different for every birth totally, and I needed it. 304 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: But I love acting and I love music so much 305 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: that I think if I didn't have that in my life, 306 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: you wouldn't be the same person. Yeah, exactly. That's the 307 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: thing that was like every hubby, you know, like with 308 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: my brother, if he didn't have basketball, I know he 309 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,239 Speaker 1: wouldn't be the same person. I think it's just a 310 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: different hobby totally. I think it's it's something to note 311 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: for sure. How lucky are we and how lucky am 312 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: I that I get to do something as a job 313 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: that a lot of people consider as a hobby. That's 314 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: crazy And I really try not to lose sight of 315 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: that ever, because that is nuts and weird and I 316 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: feel very that I can do that. So if you 317 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: have to choose one, acting or saying, is there one 318 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: that you could or can you just not? Um, it's 319 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: so tough to make the decision, one because um, they're 320 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: so different, and two because they give me different things 321 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: and offer different things. Music I think will always be 322 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: something that I want to do first and ironically didn't 323 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: do first. But um, it's always just like since I've 324 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: been little, my favorite thing in the entire world. But 325 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: I just can't imagine my life without acting. Um yeah. 326 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 1: I actually also don't know if I'd be able to 327 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: do music without my acting in a weird way, umn 328 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: be able to Okay, got it, they kind of feed 329 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: off each other and well Austin and Nellie was totally 330 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: It's funny I say that because I think, yes, in 331 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: some ways, if I just had one to focus on, 332 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: um like, if acting wasn't on the table and I 333 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: just had music, that would give me all the time 334 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: in the world and um and opportunities to just focus 335 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: on music. But I kind of I just I don't know. 336 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: I feel like I need both in my life to 337 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: feel fulfilled. How often do you write music? I mean 338 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: it's that is all over the place, So from every 339 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: day seen alone. How many songs do you think you've written? Um? 340 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: It has been a funny year because it's been a 341 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: lot of releasing stuff so um less making more. Yeah exactly, 342 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: so a lot of releasing. But I've I've done a 343 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: bunch of stuff, like written a bunch of stuff by myself, um, 344 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: but not much that I've recorded. I've recorded a little 345 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: bit of music, just kind of like experimenting with other 346 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: people and co writing with other people. But I'm kind 347 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: of looking at the year is kind of back to 348 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: the studio alright, creating a little bit more stuff for sure? 349 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: Is that like something that you'd want to do more collaborations? 350 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: Of course? I love collaborating. Yeah, it's funny, I I yes, yes, yes, 351 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: but I also wouldn't mind doing, um, some kind of 352 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: alone work as well, and just recording some of the 353 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: stuff that I've just written. Would you say it's therapeutic 354 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: for you for sure? Oh? Yeah, Sammy, it's like super 355 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 1: important for my health. I journal a lot, and then 356 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: I use that stuff that I journal about into my songs. Okay, 357 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: it's journaling. Yes, I haven't gotten into it tried. When 358 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: I like, if I really need to, I do and 359 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: I feel great, but I can't get myself to like 360 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: make admit to it.

Yeah, for me, the key 363 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: is like, don't judge yourself when you're doing it, Like 364 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: just completely don't judge yourself. No one is reading it, 365 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: no one should be reading it besides you. UM so 366 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 1: just try your best to get out of your head. Okay, 367 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: I just would you ever clap with Ross lynch Ya? 368 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: I think that would just bring back the memory.

Though. 490 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: Your hair is like I love the color hair is. 491 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: I know it's it's a newly blonder and something you 492 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: don't realize how much how much better you feel after 493 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: sometimes like you get it like a little bit different person. 494 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm talking Yeah, because you look 495 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: in the mirror and you're like, whoa, this looks different. 496 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: And then you're like, wait, I love every single thing 497 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: about this. So like I'm blonder and just this morning, 498 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: I've had this hair for a little bit. Now I 499 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: looked in the hair, It's like, whoa, I'm blont, and 500 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: like I knew it, it just takes time to register. 501 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: I know exactly what you mean. You're like, wait, I 502 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: didn't look like this before, but like I love it. 503 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: And then also it's like when you just get like 504 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: a big hair cut and if your hair is long, 505 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: you're like, whoa, your hair was so long. It's just 506 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: like it puts you in a different perspective. I know 507 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: when I cut all my hair, um, not all of it, 508 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: but when I like I had, I had a major 509 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,719 Speaker 1: moment of I just want to change everything in life. 510 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: I was going through a relationship change, I was getting 511 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: a new place to move into. I was like changing 512 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: the labels exactly, so just like cut my hair off. 513 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: And the most satisfying I was liberating it was it's 514 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: literally yes, it was so liberating. I loved it. And 515 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: then um, I cut it again and I cut it 516 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: really short and it kind of worked out perfectly, was 517 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: for the perfect date. But it kind of was around 518 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,719 Speaker 1: that I was gonna say, you had really short hair 519 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: in that movie. That was actually a year after I 520 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: had first cut it. Um, yeah, because I just kept 521 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: cutting it. I love the and then we went so 522 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: short and I was like, wait, no, no, I hate it. Um. 523 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: So you're growing it back now, yes, yes, and I'm 524 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: it's actually grown so much. Um. But now I'm a 525 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: little bit like, okay, well, I love that's growing back, 526 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: and I'm happy it's growing back, but I'm bored again. 527 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, what can I do? You're gonna do this 528 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: hair masks now, obviously I'm gonna get hair. It's gonna 529 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: be great. Well for new music. Are we talking a 530 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: new hairstyle? I mean, maybe let's do pink hair, new me, 531 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: new music, new hair. I am totally down for this. 532 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: I love it. I'm like you you've been my inspiration 533 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: Sammy vy d Okay, here's what I'm thinking, tah to me, girl, 534 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: I'm meant to ask you a deep question, and I 535 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: would just think about it first. My gosh, pressure is on, right, 536 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,719 Speaker 1: so after you know, put more music out, probably when 537 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: if you Grammys, even if you ask hers stop. How 538 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: do you want to be remembered and what do you 539 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: want your legacy to be? Ah, that's a great, deep 540 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: introspective philosophical question. You're in philosophy. I am majoring in philosophy. 541 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: I want to be remembered helping people and connecting to people. 542 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: I think for me, that's the whole reason why I 543 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: think we're all here is to connect with each other. 544 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: And if I can create some sort of art um 545 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: that makes that happen, be it entertainment, be it thought provoking, 546 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: whatever it is. But being able to connect people and 547 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: connect to people is something that I definitely want to 548 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: be remembered for. And I beyond that, I would think 549 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: helping people anything I can do to help people. Um. Again, 550 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:02,239 Speaker 1: I think it's like everything's a little bit worthless if 551 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: you're not using your platform or using anything in your 552 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: life to help other people and connect to people.
