I know.
Well, you know. Moved to Texas when I was just under two. Both my parents were figure skaters. I have to segue into this really quick because I just love their little story. My parents were figure skaters, and then my dad randomly, randomly got the job for, like, like to be the new voice of Barney the dinosaur. And yeah, it's a little fun fact about my life. No way. Yeah.
Um, I think he remembers, I think he remembers going to like a table read or something with the two of them. It was like so early on that. I don't know if he remembers, but I think he's, he's yeah. Yeah. Um, but yeah. And so that's what moved us to, cause they do their production out there. Oh, And then I started doing yeah I started doing acting classes when I was nine.
It was really I had to really beg my my parents. Oh really. I just had like such an urge all the time to like. like perform and mimic people. And I, I, yeah, I don't know. I, I just really, um, I just had like a fascination with it. And I really wanted to be like Christy Carlson Romano, um, from even Stevens or that's a Raven like I, or Lizzie McGuire, like those girls.
I just wanted to like be on Disney channel. And I kind of thought that you could just like,
Beyond Disney Channel, but you can't. That's not how it works. I auditioned many times. What'd you audition for? They didn't let me in. What did I audition for?
There was a, I think, honestly, it was pre, I don't even know if I'm allowed to say this, but it was like a show that then Ant Farm was supposed to, like they took, like there was a show that they were going to make and it was the cast of Ant Farm.
Yes, but it was not Ant Farm when I auditioned for it. It was, like, a completely different show, and they did the pilot, and it did not get picked up. And then they just took that cast and made a new show. Lore.
Yeah. Yeah, I did, like... I did other, like, after-school activities, like ballet and dance and soccer, and I did... figure skate also i i did compete um because of my my parents and i just really didn't enjoy it as much as i i enjoyed like performing like putting on plays with my sisters um my dad literally like built us a little stage that's really sweet yeah um It was really cute.
Like a tiny, like a really like elaborate, like we had like curtains and everything. No way. Yeah.
Um, we would make up our own.
No, they definitely want to be in the film industry, I think, for sure. My middle sister is an amazing screenwriter, and then my littlest sister. By the way, when I told her, I was like going down the list. I was not fully aware of your podcast. I'm just not with it and what's hip, and you're so hip. Oh, thank you.
And my sister turned red when she thought, when she found out that I, yeah, she was like, no, you're not. She was freaking out. Jane, shout out to Jane. She was like, she was so excited that I was going to be on your podcast. But yeah, she wants to be in like, um, she's actually styling, helping me get styled right now and picking out clothes for me. She makes her own clothes. She's, she's amazing.
She's an amazing woman.
jane is about to be 21 maddie is 26 i always have to figure that out because i'm 28 and we're always just we're just under two years right right right anyway um the stage the stage back to the stage so you guys would write your own plays we would put on our own plays and I really loved like performing with them. And I just loved, like, I don't know.
I just, I really just, I loved singing and kind of making a fool of myself all the time, embarrassing myself, um, And I really, yeah, I, I, I really want it. I, I knew acting was like a thing that you could do. And it's crazy to think back on, you know, being that young and knowing that this is what I want to do. Cause that does not, I know I realize how, how rare that is. And that doesn't,
happen for everybody. And I, I really can't explain why I wanted to do it. But my, my mom, when I first, I mean, she actually told me this like four or five years ago, she was like, um, cause I used, she said I used to stare at people, uh, like when I was little and she almost like, it got so bad at a point where she was like, I feel like I got to like tell her, she can't be doing that.
Cause that's a little bit, she was like, this is This is really becoming like a consistent thing. And then she she told me that I realized you were probably doing I didn't ever stop you because I realized you were probably doing it for a reason, which really is like so I think is so beautiful. But also, yeah, I really did.
I was fascinated by, like, people's mannerisms and the way people walked and the way people sounded. And I would make fun of my, like, elementary school teachers all the time. Like, I, you know, I just, like, I don't know. I was just fascinated by people and the idea of playing different people. And I think I... And really, yeah, I wanted to explore that. And thankfully, my parents allowed me to.
So I started going to acting classes out in Texas. And then an agent came out for a kids showcase where kids would do the same Skittles monologue. Skittles monologue? Skittles monologue. I can't remember it or recite it. There was something about... Taste the rainbow. There is just a monologue that I had to do in front of these people. And one of them was shout out to Cindy Osborne.
