She is only 11 years old but sings, dances and acts like a pro. Chloe Lang plays the main character Stephanie in the new season of LazyTown, which airs on Saturdays this summer.
How old are you? I am eleven years old, turning twelve in November. Where are you from? I was born and raised in the state of Connecticut in the United States.
When did you start acting, singing and dancing? I started taking dance lessons at eighteen months old. Started singing when I was six and started studying acting at seven.
Have you worked in the entertainment industry before LazyTown? Not on TV shows, but I have acted in commercials.
When did you first meet LazyTown? I often sat with my brother, who is two years older than me and was a big fan of the show, and watched LazyTown when I was little.
How did you get the role of Stephanie? I got a call from my agent, who said I had been invited to audition in New York. We went and two days later I was invited to come back. Six months later I got the role.
How is it working with Maggi Scheving? He is great. He has a very positive energy and he comes up with great ideas for scenes. It is very fun to work with him and we manage to produce a lot because he is very energetic.
But how is it working with puppets? It is very interesting. Sometimes it is actually a bit difficult, but I have received very good advice from the puppeteers and we practice to get it right.
What is the most difficult thing about acting in LazyTown? There are a lot of dance scenes in the episodes, including a music video in each episode. So I have to learn a lot of dance steps that I have to remember for a whole week.
What is the most fun about acting in LazyTown? The most enjoyable part of my job is that the shows are very diverse when it comes to costumes and sets. It’s always exciting to see what clothes I get to wear and what the set will look like. Sometimes I also get to do my own stunts, where I fly through the air attached to wires, among other things.
Have you been in Iceland for a long time? I was here for six months last year, then I took a six-month break. Then I’m in Iceland now for a few months while filming takes place.
Have you traveled around the country? I did the Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon. Went to the Westman Islands, Þórsmörk and elsewhere. I went on a Segway bike last weekend with my friends and it was really fun.
Do you have any hobbies? I like drawing and painting, and I’m teaching myself to play guitar.
What about school? I have a private teacher who is on set and when I’m not filming I go to her place and we study together. I go back and forth like that. Is it a fun lifestyle? Yes, very fun, it keeps me engaged.
