60 seconds with Degrassi's Melinda Shankar

“I was invited to my crush’s party. My friend convinced me she could give me an amazing haircut beforehand. I ended up with choppy hair and uneven bangs. I toughed it out and put on a hat. When we got there, my crush asked why I was wearing a hat. He took it off, revealing my butchered hair. I grabbed my hat, my best friend and left instantly. Needless to say, my ‘crush’ never became anything more than that!”—Melinda Shankar, 18

Catch Melinda as Alli Bhandari on Degrassi: The Next Generation, which returns for its 10th season, July 19 at 9 p.m. ET with a two-hour TV movie, The Heat Is On, only on TeenNick.
