Bailee Madison
My mom got me into some commercials, and I basically, I guess, just got out of my shell I was in at the time because I can't remember. I've just been blessed ever since.Collection: Mom
One of my favorite traditions is that my sisters and I, we all wear the same pajamas. I've even still got some from when I was 6. Also, I'll always remember cooking together in the kitchen and that no matter how busy our schedules are, we are all together for Christmas.Collection: Christmas
I did 'Bridge to Terabithia' when I was around 6 years old, but for my first movie, I was 5.
I honestly don't even know how I got into acting. It happened so quickly because my mom and sister used to do commercials, and apparently when I was little I would unbuckle myself from the stroller and crash their auditions.
When you have a movie, you know who they start out as and where they go. But this is constantly changing, and you're growing with the character.
I want to be the coolest aunt in the entire world.
I love South Florida; this is where I am from, so I don't think there is anything more rewarding than knowing that where you grew up is standing behind you and supporting you.
I'm originally from Fort Lauderdale: that's my home town in Florida. So when I'm on location, I just get the packets from schools in Florida. And when I go to Florida, I go to Christ Church School.
Katie Holmes is really amazing.
Work is so much fun that it doesn't really seem like downtime when I'm not. But cooking, spending time with my family, friends and dog are what I'm usually doing when I'm not working on something.
My mom really inspired me. She has always taught me it's not about us, it's about what we can give back.
There is a reason for everything.
God has just given me such an amazing journey and able to play; it's been so much fun. I'm having a blast!
What do I love about acting? I love traveling, meeting new people, exploring and just doing what I love.
I'm very, very blessed.
Something my mom and I have always said to each other is: 'We're not here for interviews. We're not here to get your picture taken. We're here to make a difference, and this is our opportunity to.'
I'd like to follow in the footsteps along like Jodie Foster and Natalie Portman, who got their education.
I would love to have the honor to get to work with Meryl Streep. I love her and I love her work.
There are two names that jump right out to me they are Mariska Hargitay and Katie Holmes. Both of these women are incredibly talented, and also wonderful moms, they would be down on their knees right after a take to play with their kids. They’re beautiful women inside and out, and that’s what inspires me!Collection: Beautiful
Never give up. Just follow your dreams because this business can be so hard sometimes. It doesn't happen overnight where you get an audition or even a callback and get the role. It takes time.Collection: Dream

I feel like a big thing is faith - to never lose my faith and to always stay true to who I am and to never be afraid to show who I am. I think the biggest thing is: Don't ever hide anything.Collection: Thinking
Be prepared for negative responses sometimes. It doesn't have anything to do with you. It's just sometimes you're not the right look, or you're not really what they were envisioning.Collection: Negative
You try to become the character that you're working with. So for me, I try to block out the cameras and try to trick my mind that this is actually happening.Collection: Block
I wake up to an email from the writers with the new script, and I always get so excited because I know it'll be better all-around than the script from the week before.Collection: Email
I was trying to get into the business from a young age, but I don't think I really realized how much I loved it until I booked my first movie and found myself in New Zealand for six months filming Bridge to Terabithia.Collection: Thinking
