Zitat des Tages von Dove Cameron:
My absolute favorite thing about working on 'Liv and Maddie' is my cast and crew: the people that I spend almost every hour of every day with.
It's not like you can say, 'This is the right side and this is the wrong side,' because obviously, a happy person is never going to want to inflict pain on somebody else. So the bullies are really victims themselves and yada, yada, yada, pop psychology, but it's true.
I skipped ninth grade. I went from eighth to tenth, and then I graduated a year early to start working, and it was a big blessing for me because I was not a school person, although I really do miss having that kind of environment.
When I was younger, I barely left my room because I was busy watching clips of my favorite actors and performers on the Internet.
I love my mom so much, and I always have, but I was definitely a monster to her a lot during my teen years.
I honestly think what skyrocketed me into professionalism was learning how to play two people and still live through the day.
Everything is just so much more romantic and real when it's yours and it's private.
There's no one who, at some point, hasn't had the feeling their life is on the rails and they can't do anything about it.
As an actor, you are either emulating someone else, or some version of yourself.
'Cloud 9' is an action/romantic comedy that focuses on the competitive world of snowboarding. We have glamorised it to so that all the players are on the cover of magazines, have all the interviews, and be on the television: so it is very high stakes.
It's very interesting because as an actor, you play a litany of different roles, but to play both of them within the same day multiple times, in quick successions, it's different and sort of a really rare opportunity that I was initially terrified by and a little bit daunted by.
I haven't grown since I was 13, and every girl cast opposite me isn't allowed to wear heels on camera, for fear that I would look minuscule. In all of the casting calls for my best friends on every project, it says in big, bold, red letters: 'Please no high heels.' It's a little embarrassing.
Growing up, I've always been the baby. I'm the younger of two girls in my family, my friends are always older than I am, and I'm a rather small person in stature as well.
Edgar Allan Poe, I think he's a brilliant poet. I was actually given a copy of his work when I was, like, 8 years old that was my grandfather's, and I still carry it around with me.
Right when 'Liv and Maddie' had started, there was no roadmap for how to do a show where one girl played two. It's just not something that is often done, so we had nothing to refer to.
I have so many peers who say, 'I need to get away from my parents,' because even though they love the business and they love their parents, they feel like they are letting their parents down if they don't work to the bone. As a parent, you should be the safe place.
If you think about the people trying to hurt you, rather than just trying to hurt them back, you can understand it has nothing to do with you.
It started in middle school. Once, a group of girls locked me in the janitor's closet. Another time, a girl spilled chocolate milk down a dress I made. Girls would try to trip me in the hallway.
My version of a good role model is everything that I have strived to become over the years, as I have a deep desire to live an honest life and give relentlessly and openly to people who look up to me.
I think it works differently for everyone. Some people do amazing things with research, but for me, it just gets convoluted, and I start to think too much.
Playing two people is definitely difficult, but it's made possible by everyone around me, and it's a big team effort.
I'm a really big fan of all things macabre in general; Halloween happens to be my favorite holiday.
I'm very competitive and academic.
I wore a $30 vintage wedding dress for my 8th birthday in an underground jazz club in Seattle. This was what I wanted.
This may be a bit of a broad statement, but I don't think there's anyone that I've met that I haven't created a bit of a deep relationship with. It's a really lovely thing to create a relation with people that might not anticipate that closeness. And that's kind of the light of my life, getting to be close to people.
At school, I felt out of place. I was bullied. I would think, 'These kids don't like me, they don't accept me,' but I felt like in the entertainment industry, I would fit in.
My writers on 'Liv And Maddie' have started a running joke to try and sneak as many 'literally's into the script as they can to throw me.
Samuel L. Jackson is such a riot. He's so incredibly normal, and he's a blast to be around. I can't even describe to you how he's just sort of everybody's crazy uncle.
The whole novelty and challenge of playing twins is something that has kept things wonderfully fresh for me. Just the pure joy and freedom of being able to explore so many facets of not just one, but two, different characters at once is a very singular experience.
I take 'signs' in my life as seriously as advice from family and friends or proven facts. The universe speaks through events, y'all!
Jessica Lange is my all-time favorite actress.
It's so crazy to meet people you've known about since you were many feet shorter than you are now.
When I'm acting, I just come up with people I've known, and I stick with it.
Truthfully, I'm incredibly shy, and I'm very awkward around boys.
Singing has been a passion of mine, equal to or greater than acting, ever since I was very small.
