Jenna Ortega has revealed that she would go “all day” without food or water when she was a child star so she wasn’t “in the way of anybody.” When answering the question of a “rookie mistake you made on your first set” with Esquire, Ortega shared that she can’t recall making a mistake when she was younger cause always has a “game face on.” But that mistake was “not actually looking after myself.” #jennaortega #jennaortegaedit #disneychannel #childactor
