[on what were the things that scared her the most, and what ultimately made her decide to do nude scenes on 'Now Apocalypse' anyway ]: It was a very brief time period of being scared. It was mainly just before filming anything, and just reading the scripts and being like, “Wow!” As an actor, I’ve never done any sort of intimate scene on camera before, or been topless, so that was just nerve-wracking, as a human. But I was excited, too, because a lot of the sexual situations with this show are not scary. I’m representing something bigger, with female sexuality and being confident with that, because my character, Carly, finds her confidence through sexuality. She’s not scared. She’s embracing it, and that sends a message to everyone watching it. Naturally, it’s a little intimidating, especially when you have to go to a sex dungeon, but that was really it. Everything else was just exciting for me, honestly.

[on the sex scenes on 'Now Apocalypse'] : Definitely, the intimate scenes were a challenge. I'd never done anything like that. But once I was on set, it wasn't scary at all. It really ended up being one of the least scary things, honestly. It ended up being pretty funny. You look at each other after the scene is done, and you just burst out laughing.

[on being a Disney star]: Being on a Disney show is one of the most rapid, insane ways to be in the public eye. I had the pressures of having a crush and fighting with my friends and doing schoolwork, all while having an adult job and be on it 12 hours ago. I understand why people have these breakdowns. It's a lot to handle, and everyone handles it differently… You don't just have to answer to your parents, you have to answer to millions of people. I’ll be honest, it’s stressful as hell.

[filming nude scenes]: It's liberating in real life, too. You're like, "You know what? It's just a body."
