TigerBeat: How long have you been acting for?

Olivia Sanabia: I’ve been acting for about seven years now. I started with musical theater when I was six years old and then two years later, I decided I wanted to do it professionally.

TigerBeat: Was there a certain moment that sparked your interest in pursuing a career in acting?

Olivia Sanabia: Yes! I remember when I saw the movie ‘Ramona and Beezus’ with my mom, I was so inspired by Joey King because she was my age, and living out my dream.

TigerBeat: That’s awesome! Take us back to when you auditioned for the role of Kelly on ‘Just Add Magic.’

Olivia Sanabia: When I first got the script, I fell in love with the show. It was so close to me and relatable, so I felt really great going into my audition.

TigerBeat: Were you nervous at all?

Olivia Sanabia: Oh my gosh, yes! There are certain projects that I get nervous for, and those are usually the ones that I want the most. T

igerBeat: What can you tell us about season two of ‘Just Add Magic’?

Olivia Sanabia: This season is crazy. It’s ten times the mystery and magic of the first season. I think the intensity grows so much because there’s a new villain in town, and he kind of throws the girls for a major loop. I’m really excited for everyone to see it.
