We were joined on the Popternative show by young actress Kensington Tallman who stars in the new tween musical series Home Sweet Rome! The series premiered on April 7 on Family Channel in Canada, and will be followed by launches on the BBC, RAI, ARD, and HBO Max in the U.S. A skilled vocalist, Kensington sings 11 original new songs in the series written by Grammy and BMI Award-winning songwriters Alex Geringas, whose songs have been performed by Cher, Kelly Clarkson, Snoop Dogg, Jessie J, and Dove Cameron, and Chen Neeman, who has written music for hit series Hannah Montana, Shake it Up, Austin & Ally, and Descendants.

Home Sweet Rome! follows 13-year-old Lucy (Kensington Tallman), who moves from California to start a new life in Rome with her dad and stepmom, Francesca (Eleonora Facchini) – who happens to be an Italian pop star. As Lucy learns to adapt to her new city, new school, and new life, she’s also navigating through the growing pains of being a teenager while discovering her own musical talent.

In our interview, Kensington talks about filming the series in Italy, her audition process, and being on a show where music is the focal point.
