I am actress Luna Blaise. I play Nicole on "Fresh off the Boat." AMAA!

Do you like your dog or cat better and why is it your dog?

I love my cat. My cat is like, my best friend. My dog has its good and bad days. But it's SUPER cute!!!

I haven't seen Fresh Off the Boat yet. What is Nicole's character like?

Nicole is very interesting. She's very sassy, and she's very confident, but I think she thinks she's a know-it-all, knows better than EVERYBODY, and doesn't take no for an answer. She loves fashion, she's very out of the box in the neighborhood and she doesn't fit in, but Eddie seems to like that.

How did you try out for the part in "Fresh Off the Boat"?

So I tried out for "Fresh off the Boat" and basically, I got in there, and did an audition - I had to dance in my audition, which I didn't really feel comfortable with because the dance style was hiphop, but I grew to love hiphop because of the show, but I went there, just tried my best, and when I got the callback I was really excited, like "OH my gosh, this will be fun!" and when I got the part, I was really happy and excited about it.

I was just... going out there, doing a normal audition, like this seems really cool, the writing seems really amazing, I didn't go in there knowing I would get the part, but I went in there with full confidence.

Hi Luna!

Who is your dream actor or actress to work with?

Can I name 2?

Acting-wise... for a guy, I'd probably choose to star alongside a younger guy. I would love to work with Eddie Redmayne, he seems like an amaaaazing guy to work with. Or Ansel Elgort.

For an actress, I think I'd like to work with Scarlett Johannson. She seems amazing in everything she does. And I think she'd be really fun to work with.

How did you get into acting?

I did some commercials when I was 2 years old, and I started acting-acting when I was 5 years old. Ever since I was little, I always played dress-up, so I loved changing costumes, and my parents knew that I was going to try acting, so I started watching movies when I was really little, and I would watch the behind-the-scenes on movies and everything, and so I knew I had an interest in it - so I would watch them over and over and over again. So from day one, I knew I had an interest in it.

What was your favorite tv show growing up?

There's this one show - I didn't really watch TV when I was little, I watched movies, but I would have to say for the 7-10 range, I would watch HANNAH MONTANA or something. I watched RUGRATS when I was little, but that didn't affect anything! I loved that show.

Rugrats is awesome! Good choices!

thanks :)

what is your favorite book?

THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. It's just such a good book. And the movie was really good. Like, I loved it!

If you could be anything other than an actor, what would you be?

Hmmm.

A director. I just have grown up on set, and I know the process of everything, and how it all works, and so that would definitely be my second choice, directing.

Have you ever had to give up something you enjoy in order to better your acting career?

I had to give up dance lessons... it was 6 days a week, so it was every day. So when "Fresh Off the Boat," that is when I decided I couldn't juggle both. My work day is 9 hours (3 of those hours are school, it's mandatory while on-set), and then I have travel time with LA and the traffic, so if I have an early call-time at 8 o'clock, you want to get there by 7 so you can put all your stuff away, get breakfast... so it can be getting up at 5, out by 6, then there by 7... and the schooling is not just 3 hours straight, you do 30 minutes here, then take a break... so it can end up being a long day.

Hi, Luna -

I worked on the show with you. Just wanted to congratulate you on the success! It's in the Top 3 Comedies on tv!

So. Now that you have a hit comedy under your belt, what else are you eager to tackle?

I want to tackle horror, hahaa! I want to be on a horror show, or a horror movie, but I love everything horror.

How has acting affected your ability to get an education? Do you see yourself in acting as a long-term career, or doing something else down the line?

Yes, I think I wanna act as much as I can act, and I want to stay in the business. I know that I am going to stay in the business my whole life - even if it's not acting, as a director and producer, but I hope it's acting.

How have your friends and family reacted to your success on the new show? Has anything about your interactions with them changed since it started airing?

I think they were just very happy for me, just very proud of what I've accomplished. All my friends watch the show, and they are very supportive of me.

what commercials do you like that you were in?

Duncan Hines! I ate SO many brownies. It was great! I was like 6 or 7? Me and my mom were just making brownies... and I worked with the mom who was my mom in the commercial, we know each other personally in real life and we're really close.

How did you get to be so grown up?

I don't know...it's the people I surrounded myself with when I was little? My family, my support network. They helped ground me.

Well I'm very impressed. And I don't mean that in a condescending "you're such a big girl" sort of way like I talk to my toddler.

So what sort of things are you doing when you're not acting, dancing, or fighting for/against the environment/cancer?

I mean, I hang out with my friends... I try to do that as much as I can, because i have to sacrifice hanging out with my friends a lot, but I try to hang out with them as much as I can. I have really great friends who support me, so if I can't hangout at a specific time, sometimes they will reschedule it so I can join them, or they'll make it a shorter time, and give me the option to hang out. I FaceTime my friends every night, because I don't get to see them every single day, which is really good, so I really like that.

And I like going to Disneyland, all the time! We are a big Disney family.

Oh man, I love Disneyland! You don't grow out of that. Have you been to Club 33?

I have not been there. You can't be in there without an adult - the youngest anyone who has ever been in there was 10 years old. There's no age limit, but you have to have an adult with you.
