Our guest this week is California-based actor, singer, songwriter and dancer KYLEE RUSSELL! She starred as Karin Daniels in Disney Channel’s “JUMP IN!”, along side HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL’s Corbin Bleu and SCREAM QUEEN’s Keke Palmer. Kylee landed the lead role of Young Kari Peterson, with WESTWORLD’s Tessa Thompson playing the Adult Kari Peterson, in Tina Mabry’s award-winning film MISSISSIPPI DAMNED. Kylee’s love for singing shone through when she starred as Hayden Chase, a pop star sensation in the BAFTA children’s award, and International Emmy Kids award nominated film HANK ZIPZER’s CHRISTMAS CATASTROPHE. Kylee also sang on the film’s soundtrack. In 2018, Kylee debuted her role as ELIZA ZAMBIE, the empowering activist rebel zombie, in Disney’s “Z-O-M-B-I-E-S”. In 2020, she reprised her role in “Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 2”. Kylee is featured on both Movie Soundtracks and Official Music videos. Kylee also voiced SCORN, a purple and gray symbiote, in Marvel’s animated series SPIDER-MAN. Kylee is a singer-songwriter who has a single that was just released at the beginning of 2021 called STITCHES. Kylee also collaborated with her younger sister, HALLE RUSSELL and they wrote and performed “My Christmas Love” for TV-One’s ROYAL CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY. And look out for her in Z-O-M-B-I-E-S 3!
