Ever heard of Skai Jackson? Yeah, it’s the same one you know that we are talking about. She is an American child actress and the Zuri Ross in Disney Channels show, Jessie.

Her passion for acting started since when she was four and she considers acting as something she would be doing for the rest of her life.

Her contact with the media world dated back to when she was still a baby, appearing as a child model in several TV commercials.

She got her to break in 2007 when she appeared in the independent movie Liberty Kid but her role as Zuri Ross in the TV series Jessie brought her to fame.

She has appeared in many other movies which include Rescue Me, The Rebound, Arthur, Ultimate Spider-Man, and The Smurfs, and in different television series such as Royal Pains, Sesame Street, and Boardwalk Empire.

Skai was the voice character of Isa the iguana from the cartoon Dora The Explorer and Little Fish on Nick Jr’s Bubble Guppies.

This cutie has also appeared along with some biggest names in Hollywood. In 2013, she appeared with, and Adrianne Palicki, as Roadblock’s daughter in a thriller/action film G.I. Joe: Retaliation. She currently stars in the Disney series Bunk’d alongside, Karan Brar, and Nina Lu.

She has a good head on her shoulders at such a young age and she plans to be a movie director and producer in the future. Skai was an Image Awards nominee for Outstanding Performance by a Youth (Series, Special, Television Movie, or Mini-series).

She was bullied for being short and admonishes every child who is bullied to talk to an adult and learn to stand up for themselves. Her height is 4′ 11″ which is going to increase in the future considering that she is still very young.

She may be teeny but never gives in to intimidations or to her haters and would always come out stronger than they expected her to be, leaving them singing her praise and trailing behind her.

She stands for the right cause and is courageous enough to point out the wrong facts. Skai believes she had a career before Disney and sure will after and told Azealia Banks who tongue lashed her after making a racist and homophobic comment on Twitter so. Such a strong-spirited girl. Banks sure got the wow of her life.

Skai Jackson is in love with fashion and is creating a revolution in the fashion industry. She is seen donning expensive and trendy clothes on her social media platforms, at award functions, or at any red carpet event.

In the future, she would like to have her own fashion line or work with a big fashion company.
