‘It hasn’t sunk in yet,’ British actress says of her role in mega-popular Disney franchise.
What happens when a rising British star gets the call to enter the halls of East High? A good old-fashioned freak-out.
“I ran around the house screaming,” Jemma McKenzie-Brown said, thinking back to the day she was asked to a final audition for “High School Musical 3: Senior Year” “My grandma was like, ‘What’s wrong?’ I was like, ‘Nothing, nothing. I’m really excited!’ “
Not exactly the reaction you might expect from an experienced star of British television and radio. But the call came near the end of months of auditions for “HSM3″ and eventually earned the 14-year-old a spot as the new kid at the “High School Musical” table. She plays Tiara Goal, a transfer student from England who becomes Sharpay’s personal assistant/ “mini-me” in the upcoming flick.
