Bella Thorne and Zendaya Coleman from Disney's Shake It Up interview and video!

NG Kids catches up with Bella Thorne and Zendaya Coleman, stars of the Disney Channel hit show, Shake It Up...

NG Kids Hi girls! We love Shake It Up! Is the show as fun to make as it is to watch?
Bella Thorne Yes! Everybody has a lot of fun. At lunchtime, everybody comes into my room and we end up eating, laughing and joking. We sometimes play video games and dance too!

NGK You recently filmed with Cat Deeley, what was that like?  
Zendaya Coleman She was so nice! She’s an incredible actress and I’d say it was one of my best experiences on the show so far.
Bella It was so cool! I’ve always been a big fan of Cat Deeley because I loved the TV show, So You Think You Can Dance. We thought she was going to play herself but she didn’t, she played a school principal. I love her accent!


Bella and Zendaya in action!

NGK What do you enjoy most about being on Shake It Up?
Bella I enjoy getting to dance with my best friend, Zendaya, and I love being able to live my dreams. I’ve always wanted to be a dancer and I’ve always wanted to act, and now here I am!

NGK We hear Justin Bieber is a big fan of the show. Would you like to have him on the show?
Zendaya That would be pretty incredible. It would definitely be an amazing experience!
Bella It would be amazing! It would be such an honour to work with him.

NGK If you could have any guest star on the show, who would that be?
Zendaya Besides Justin Bieber, I would say Raven Symone, from That’s So Raven. She’s such a funny person and I know her personally, so I know she’s really nice and kind.


Making this crazy show is always loads of fun!

NGK What do you like most about acting?
Zendaya I really like the fact that I can step into someone else’s shoes and just forget who I am. It’s nice to be someone else for a while!

NGK Can you give us your top dancing tips?
Bella I would say you always have to be focused in order to remember the dance moves and not think ahead too much as it gets confusing. Also, if your muscles get sore, rubbing sports creams into them really helps!
