Happy first week of spring, and Happy Woman Crush Wednesday! This week we’re celebrating a gal that’s more than just a scene-stealer, she’s groundbreaking royalty. Give a round of applause to the lovely Aimee Carrero.
WHO’S THAT GAL: Aimee Carrero
WHY WE’RE CRUSHING: Freeform sitcom Young & Hungry just began its fifth season and we felt the need to shoutout Lil SoSo herself. Aimee plays Sofia Rodriguez, who makes the awkward growing pains of her 20’s just so damn funny. Opposite Emily Osment’s Gabi, the two gals are total #friendshipgoals and just saying, but we wouldn’t mind being their roommate too. The characters are about as relatable as it gets…although we’ve never landed a spin instructor gig the way Sofia has!
Aimee brings a freshness to the screen that ignites her smart, sassy, and sentimental moments. Her character allows her to display both common sense and comedic hijinks on the endlessly enjoyable show, proving Aimee’s ability to portray silly and serious all within the same half-hour. From delivering deadpan jokes to fun physical comedy, Aimee’s made Sofia a multidimentional character we can watch and feel like we’re pals with. And we’re not the only ones that can’t get enough: her character almost got a spinoff show with Ashley Tisdale. We’re bummed it wasn’t picked up, but it’s safe to say this girl’s having no problem staying busy.
WHERE YOU’VE SEEN HER BEFORE: Aimee has popped up in TV shows such as The Mentalist, Hannah Montana, Greek, The Americans, and Blindspot. She starred in the Cartoon Network live-action film and TV series Level Up, and can also be seen in the films Alvin And The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, The Last Witch Hunter, and Devil’s Due.
Perhaps one of the most exciting items on Aimee’s resume is that of Princess Elena: Aimee is Disney’s first Latina princess, lending her voice to the animated series, Elena of Avalor, inspiring young girls and proving that her talent knows no bounds at the same time.
WHERE YOU’LL SEE HER NEXT: We hear that Sofia has some very exciting stuff coming up on this season of Young & Hungry, so we can’t wait to see what she’s got cookin’!
