#NextBigThing: hayleykiyoko
#HayleyKiyoko has accomplished something very unique. She took her 2015 hit song "Girls Like Girls" and turned it into an expansive universe featuring a music video, novel and now a feature film.
Though the 35-year-old got her start with roles in Disney Channel's
#LemonadeMouth and the
#ScoobyDoo! live-action films, she didn't wait long before turning her full attention to music. She used her lyrics as a tool for self-expression and healing, leading to her personal coming-out anthem "Girls Like Girls," which established her as a major force in the music industry.
Fast forward, and she has continued to share her revolutionary story across multiple mediums to reach as many people as possible. “I really believed that this movie — I’m sure I have more to share — but I do believe that this movie is a huge part of my purpose and a huge part of just helping others on their journey of self-love and self-discovery,” Kiyoko tells THR.
