A look back… Kathryn Newton

There’s no doubt Kathryn Newton has made a successful transition from child actor to starring roles as a young adult. But before Freaky, Big Little Lies, Blockers and roles in award-winning films like Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri & Lady Bird, I got a chance to watch the beginning of her evolution from sitcom daughter to film star.

Sabrina Carpenter – October 2020 Featured Artist

I first talked to Sabrina in October of 2012, before she was cast as Maya in Girl Meets World. She’s always been approachable and fun to talk to. I’ve seen her at many other events with her castmates, but our next one-on-one was at the Planes: Fire and Rescue premiere. I also got to talk to her at a TJ Martell Family Day event, where she performed. You can watch Sabrina’s latest... [Read more]

Jesse McCartney – June 2020 Featured Artist

I met Jesse 14 years ago at the Radio Disney Totally 10th Birthday Party. It was nice of him to talk with me, considering I was just about to turn 10 years old myself, and I’d only been interviewing celebrities on the red carpet for about a year. It was fun to see Jesse as the Turtle, season 3′s runner up, on the Masked Singer! Enjoy his music highlighted this month on JENNiRADIO, including... [Read more]
