I'm very social and energetic and silly!




Canadian 4 life asked….who do you think should get together on SC?

i guess it would be red and Kristy... we've been waiting so long for them to get together, even though he's a little older than her.




Sarah and Calli asked… Do you like acting or singing better?

I really enjoy both but in different ways... filming music clips is fun because we get to dance around and enjoy the music... on set it's more like a full day's work and it's really different... we get to spend a lot of time together and act like other people..




EIA Horsecrazy asked…What colour are your toenails today?

thank you so much!

my toenails are a pinky gold colour! i painted them only yesterday!

My most embarrassing moment - this one time I was in gym pants I my watch got stuck to my gym pants and my pants came off.




Sydney712 asked… Will you be touring the US at some stage?

No plans at this stage...but I'd love to come see America… it may happen though - it will go on the website as soon as we know...*fingers crossed*..




Stephnrumpole asked… Did any of the horses get ill while we filmed the Saddle Club?

Girlrider asked… What’s your favourite band?

Umm..I like all kinds of different music! I like U2 and...I'm just going to look at my ipod! (a green mini one - it's so cute!) ...the Beatles, old Michael Jackson... and I guess I like Britney Spears and 50 cent for dancing..!




Horses 111 asked… Did you ever play tricks on each other on set?

We did play a few tricks on each other... we used to lock people in the porta potties!! They lock from the outside so that was an easy trick - it was sooooo fun!

I was surprised at how sad it was...a bunch of us we're actually crying... :(

We're not sure if there's going to be another series yet but keep an eye on the SC website for more news...

I really like being able to learn about another country and I love travelling and so going anywhere is a blast...

Well the first time was really odd but after a while I got used to it and when I came back home things at home seemed odd.




Leah asked…Where were you born?

Born in Toronto! :)

I don't really consider myself as famous...but it was pretty cool being invited to the Logies and the ARIAS - that was awesome!




Wsbranbratxo asked… do you have any advice for kids wanting to become actors?

I guess - be determined – and to realise that it is quite hard to get into the business...but to keep going, and to believe in yourself - because it's kind of a tough business.

Thursday!! Because everyone knows that Friday’s coming...and we all get excited about the weekend!!




Kubickjumper asked… How did you get your record contract? How did you get on TV?

But to get on the big screen you need to go for auditions and try to go for ones that are big screen productions.

I'm friends with all the girls in real life...I haven't talked to Heli in a long time but I would LOVE to..she isn't mean at all!

Sparky was mine...

Sophie's was Jake...

Lara's was Rockie..

We had a dialogue coach - and Sophie and I helped to coach her a bit because we know a little bit of French too!




April asked… what was it like filming on the first day of SC?

I can barely remember!!

I was really excited because I had already met the other girls - we had been taking riding lessons and I already really liked them...

I was actually quite shy because there were so many other people there to meet and get to know... which is funny because my character is not shy!




Horses12345 asked… Will there be a third series of SC?

We're hoping there's something on the way...I'm pretty hopeful. It's a very difficult thing to organise, they have to write scripts, and raise money...it's such a long process! But we're keeping our fingers crossed!




Horsecrazy12345 asked… What do you think of Sophie’s (Stevie) new hair colour?

I caught up to her yesterday in Toronto… it looks fabulous! It looks even better in real life than in pictures!

But I has a soft spot for my horse!! ;) lol!




SCRules4ever asked… What’s it like being recognized on the street?

Umm... sometimes I'm really embarrassed, because I'm going out for a run or something *blushes* and I don't really want to be seen, but then other times I see a fan and they get me so excited, and they just make me so pumped. It's great.




EIA Horsecrazy asked… Please describe your job in three words.

The weirdest place I've been asked for an autograph was at a baseball tournament in Canada... I got cornered at the back of a bus by a few kids!
