In Robertson on words she explains what the show is all about, “The show revolves around a 16-year-old orphan who intentionally wanted emancipation from the orphanage, which leads her to find her biological parents Cate Cassidy (Shiri Appleby) and Nate Bazile (Kristoffer Polaha). Lux undergoes through several complications and attempts to adapt to her new life with parents she had always wanted.” But what is so appealing about a character with ruff background, well for one she is super independent; and “I always wanted to play someone as interesting as Lux,” says Britt.

Although she is happy with the show and says that it is “great group of dynamic and well developed characters,” sometimes being an actress comes with disappointment. She told DailyActor about a role she had her heart set on and came very, very close to getting “it actually came down to me and the girl who got it. When I finally got that news, it was the most heartbreaking experience ever.” But, they do say things happen for a reason and because she didn’t get that role she was free to be Lux “But then I ended up booking the television show I’m on now shortly after so that was nice,” adds Robertson.

In addition to Lux you can catch Britt as Ellie Pennington this November when she stars in the new Disney Channel original movie Avalon High. The movie is based of the novel by Meg Cabot; who you might remember as the author of the book The Princess Diaries. The movie and novel follow Ellie (Robertson) who starts a new school (Avalon High) where she soon discovers that her new classmates are reincarnations of King Arthur and his court.

Sparkling Stars: First, start by telling our readers a little bit about yourself.

Kay Panabaker: I’m a 19 year old actress and UCLA graduate. I have been acting for almost 10 years and am enjoying everything that life throws at me.

Sparkling Stars: You star in the in movie “FAME” can you tell us a little bit about the plot of the film?

Kay Panabaker: “FAME” follows a group of students at a performing arts high school in New York City from their freshman to senior year. The film shows their struggles, heartaches, and successes as they attempt to figure themselves out and find their place in the world while attempting to follow their dreams.

Sparkling Stars: You play Jenny, what is her personality like?

Kay Panabaker: Jenny is very timid and unsure of herself, both as a person and as an artist. As the years go by, however she becomes more confident and realizes that everyone makes mistakes, and learns to learn and grow from the mistakes she makes.

Sparkling Stars: What was the audition process like?

Kay Panabaker: I was actually the first person cast. I had one audition with the casting directors, whom I’ve known for a few years, but didn’t expect anything after that. The next day, however, I was told I had an audition with the director and one of the producers and that I would have to sing. I’m not a very strong singer and didn’t think they would even consider me after my singing. A couple weeks after this audition, though, I was vacationing in Hawaii and I got the phone call that they were offering me the role. I was shocked and thrilled!

Sparkling Stars: What drew you to the movie and the role of Jenny?

Kay Panabaker: Because this film takes place over 4 consecutive years, the film allows for intensive character growth and development. Jenny, in particular, really grows and matures and I got to stretch myself.

Sparkling Stars: What was it like to star in a remake to such a classic 80s film?

Kay Panabaker: I never thought of this movie as a remake. Sure, it is loosely based on the previous film, but it features all new characters, all new music, and all new storylines. It is a stand alone film. It is rather intimidating now as people start comparing the 2 films. Hopefully people will realize that this is a separate film.

Sparkling Stars: Did you see the original film before you audition for the remake; if not, have you seen it now?

Kay Panabaker: I saw it before my audition and was struck by how the film took it’s time and didn’t rush to tell the story.

Sparkling Stars: Why should people go see the movie “Fame?”

Kay Panabaker: It’s such an exhilarating movie that will leave audience members dancing in their seats and feeling so inspired. It shows heartache and struggle, but makes everyone feel as if they can succeed if only they try.

Sparkling Stars: What is you favorite thing about acting?

Sparkling Stars: What has been your favorite role to play so far?

Kay Panabaker: I have loved every role I’ve done with no favorites because each one has been an experience for me.

Sparkling Stars: Did you ever want to do anything else besides acting?

Kay Panabaker: While I love acting and would love to continue doing so for years, I may grow tired of it or could stop getting jobs. I have a few ideas of what I would equally love. I went to UCLA and studied history because one of my back-up plans is to be an elementary school teacher. I could also see myself going back to college to get a degree that has to do with animals because I would love to be an animal trainer as well.

Sparkling Stars: Is it hard to balance your career, school, and personal life?

Kay Panabaker: I think people make time for things that are important to them and for me that is school and work so it really wasn’t that difficult. I would do auditions or work during the day and then take night and weekend classes at my community college starting when I was 13. When I transferred to UCLA at age 15, I scheduled work around school. I’m so glad I finished school already because now I can work and feel good about myself, knowing I already have a BA.

Sparkling Stars: Do you have any other new projects in the works that you can tell us about?

Kay Panabaker: I did an independent film this summer called “The Lake Effect.” It’s a drama and I played a pregnant girl who thinks she can have her kid, go to college, and support her musician boyfriend without any difficulty. She soon learns otherwise.

Sparkling Stars: Here is just a fun question, if you could be any superhero who would it be and why?

Kay Panabaker: I would want to be Batman because of all the cool gadgets he has.

Sparkling Stars: Lastly, what do you have to say to your fans, and anyone trying to break into the business?

Kay Panabaker: Hard work and an education can never be taken away from you, so if you have both, there’s nothing you can’t do.

Other movies that are being released are the live action feature based of the Anime Dragonball Z, and the Adventure film Race to Witch Mountain.

With all this and more stuff coming out this year, it is safe to say it is going to be one great year.

The cast of characters in the film makes the movie what is and from Emma point of view was a blast to work with, “It was amazing to work with everyone in the movie. Lisa Kudrow was so much fun and Kevin Dillon is hilarious.” The young starlet was also very flattered to find out actor Don Cheadle; who plays the foster kids’ social worker in the film, children where a fan of hers, saying “Don is such a nice guy. It’s so nice to hear when anyone’s a fan.” The movie is sure to do wonders in theaters and be a box of hit. Next up she will star in two amazing films which are both are due to be shown at Sundance in January 2009; “Lymelife” with Cynthia Nixon and “The Winning Season” with Sam Rockwell.

Emma gave up the info on her character in the film “Lymelife,” saying its a darker and edgy movie then she has done, but her role is just the typical girl, but got a kick out of wearing the old fashion clothes considering the movie is based in the 70s. She goes on to say that for her other independent film ['Winning Season'] she had to learn to play baskets ball, but confess she will probably never play the game again.

And why not the books are loved by many people all over the world raging from boys to girls, men to women, and teens to adults, and have become highly successful. The only question left to ask is why? Well, that’s a question not even Stephenie Meyer herself can answer, “I’m not sure what it is that draws readers to be so excited about the characters. I know I love them, I know they’re extremely important to me, but I don’t know why other people feel the same way.”

Twilight movie star, who just so happens to be a big fan of the books Kristen Stewart gives her thoughts on why she and other fans are drawn to the books; “The cool thing about the story is that it’s a seemingly wonderful fantasy let’s fall in love with vampires and live forever — but it’s so much harder than that. Imagine living forever. Living one life is hard enough.”

Kristen was happy to get to step into the shows of Bella in the film version of the book and hopes to represent her role soon; “People really love these books, hopefully we’ll get to shoot all four.” Says Stewart; “It’s a pretty triumphant love story, it’s going to take a while, and it deserves at least a series of three.” I’m sure fans of the books are hoping for the same thing, but in the meantime they can check out the first Twilight movie in theaters November 21, 2008.
