Sitting down to chat with Peyton List, I had to remind myself she was, technically, still a teen. The 19-year-old actress, who, yes, is best known for her role on Disney Channel’s Jessie and its spinoff Bunk’d, is remarkably mature, well-spoken, and wise beyond her years. As we bonded over skin issues and bad beauty phases, I was suddenly excited to tell all my friends. This girl is the real deal, and everyone—not just teens!—should be following her. If, of course, you aren’t already one of the 11 million who do so on Instagram.
As Peyton gears up for the release of multiple films next year, including Anthem, which is based on a hit novel of the same name, it’s time to get to know her a little better. Find out the crazy amount of lip colors she keeps in her purse on any given day, and why she thinks it’s unfair that people judge her bikini photos.
