If you have been watching movies and TV series in the last decade, you could not have missed this aspiring young star.

McKenna Grace may only be 16, but she has already accomplished more than some adult actors ever will. How? That is the question everyone is asking.

Our favorite blonde began acting at the age of 6 and seems to have made it her goal to just never stop.

Inspired by Shirley Temple's works, McKenna convinced her mother to sign her up for acting classes and then landed a recurring role on the Disney XD's sitcom Crash & Bernstein. The girl started out big!

Later on, the cinema industry quickly realized what a gem Grace was, resulting in her appearances in many high-profile movies and TV shows, such as I, Tonya, Captain Marvel, The Handmaid's Tale, and Young Sheldon. We are sooo eager for more!

In an interview for Grumpy Magazine, the actress shared that ever since childhood she would "get fixated on something" and never let go if that something was true to her heart.

It seems to us that McKenna has been inspired again, but this time the music industry is her target!

In 2023, Grace released her debut EP Bittersweet 16, proving once again that much like her Young Sheldon's character Paige, she can do it all!

The singer's EP showcases her newfound musical talent and reflects deeply relatable teenage angst. If this is McKenna's way of going off the rails like every teenager has to, we are definitely here for it. Much better than drugs and alcohol, right?

The young genius may have plans to seize the music industry just like she did with the film one. Should we be scared or excited? Only time will tell.

Perhaps, a Grammy nom will soon follow her Emmy nod. One thing we know for sure – we would not want to be the poor actor or singer up against McKenna at any of the awards.

OK, two things, the second being that we should all keep a close eye on Grace. With her potential, she will surely surprise us again. Hopefully, it will be good!
