SELENA TALKS SOCIAL MEDIA Selena Gomez loves social media but has spoken that it can also be an unhealthy addiction. “I love having a platform to communicate with people; however, I just don’t think that it’s healthy to spend too much time on it. I think taking breaks is really important. Also, just know that most of it isn’t real and is unrealistic in a lot of ways.” JACE LOVES DRAMA Jace Norman always makes us laugh, but the actor has shared that one day he hopes to also do something serious.“I started doing comedy right off the bat because it was my strong suit,” he explained. “But I definitely can do drama, and I hope I do eventually as I get older.” FASHION TALK WITH JENNA Actress, Jenna Ortega…

Dreame Diary Have you ever thought about keeping a dream diary? It’s a great way of keeping a record of all of your dreams. Keep a diary of all the dreams you remember in the morning so you can look up what they could mean.

Selena Gomez had a strange dream back when she was starring on Disney Channel’s, Wizards of Waverly Place.“A weird dream I once had was one where I was dating my Wizards of Waverly Place co-star, David Henrie. It was the weirdest dream ever and it was awkward the…

SOCIAL CELEBS LIZZY GREENE Just because Lizzy is a celeb, doesn’t mean she doesn’t go through the same things we do! Recently, she opened up about her past, revealing she had been bullied online, and how social media can make things even worse if you’re sad or angry. She says, “When you act out of anger instead of kindness, what you say could hurt you later. Everything put on social media is permanent, even if you delete it seconds after. People can still screenshot. Also remember, everyone is dealing with things that you don’t even know about, so think before you act.” itslizzygreene @lizzy_greene OMG!

DOVE SAYS DESCENDANTS ISN’T OVER YET We all thought we had said goodbye to the Descendants world after the third film, but according to Dove Cameron there could be more movies in the future. “I think it would be smart to do maybe a spin-off with maybe the younger characters,” Dove revealed in an interview.

We wanted to share a bit more about our families and include a bit more information that people didn’t know so it would be a nice surprise.” Sam: “We wanted to include behind-the-scenes sort of things because we don’t share everything on social media, people might think that we do, but there…

FLASH BACK BACK! This month we’ve taken a walk down memory lane! We’ve gone back in time to 2015, 2016 and 2017 and taken a look at just how much JoJo Siwa has grown up.
