On this episode of It's Real, Jordan and Demi interview two multitalented performers who first appeared on screen when they were young.

Katelyn Tarver was a contestant on American Juniors, where she made the final round. She then acted in shows like Big Time Rush, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, and HBO's Ballers.

Olivia Olson made her debut in Love Actually as Joanna, the aspiring pop singer who belts Mariah Carey and steals Sam's heart. These days, Olson is best known as a voiceover artist for hit shows like Phineas and Ferb and as the iconic Marceline the Vampire Queen on Adventure Time, a role which she reprises in the the new Max limited series Fionna and Cake.

Tarver and Olson have both grown up to singer-songwriters as well. Tarver will start a headlining tour on Sept. 6 (dates below) with a new album in the works. Her song “What Makes A Life Good?” recently played in the series finale of The Other Two, which costarred her brother Drew Tarver.

Olson is working on a new album while she helps write the Phineas and Ferb reboot for Disney.

Watch Jordan Edwards and Demi Ramos interview Tarver and Olson about growing up in the entertainment industry, their latest projects, and handling multiple careers.
