Antsy for A.N.T. Farm



We heart China Anne McClain—particularly because she’s the star of the brand new Disney Channel series A.N.T. Farm, which premieres this Friday, June 17, at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.


The show centers around a group of middle school prodigies in a high school world and, heh, we can only imagine the mayhem that will ensue. We recently had the chance to chat with China and had her dish on everything from juicy show deets to fellow Disney star Selena Gomez. Check it out.


GL: Tell us a little bit about your character Chyna in A.N.T Farm.
China: She’s a very confident and loyal person who plays like 13 different instruments. She’s not afraid to be herself, and that’s what I love about her.


As you mentioned, Chyna’s very musically inclined. What’s one of your most-played songs on your iPod right now?
“Dynamite” by Taio Cruz because it’s upbeat. I love to dance along to it.


The A.N.T.s in the show are very talented. Do you have any hidden talents of your own?
I actually draw. My mom is a really good artist, and I think I kind of got it from her. She draws random stuff and I just copy her.


If you could share your favorite summer memory what would it be?
My entire family, including some of my friends, went to Disneyland. How ironic? So we all went and we got to go on Soaring Over California. That’s the greatest ride ever.


You’ve been spotted with fellow Disney star Selena Gomez. What’s your favorite thing about her?

She is the nicest person. Even though she’s super duper famous, she’s not like ‘Give me my latte.’


If you could cover any of her songs right now, which would it be?
“A Year Without Rain” because it’s beautiful. I love upbeat songs that start off slow.

Be sure to catch China in action when A.N.T. Farm premieres this Friday night on Disney Channel, then come back and let us know your thoughts. Want more of the scoop from China? Watch the video below!
