She started modeling when she was just nine months old, followed by her first commercial when she was one and the movie at four. When asked about how she felt turning 21 and whether her fans would view her as an adult, Skai Jackson said,
“I could sometimes, yeah but they are getting used to it, you know. They are realizing I am about to be 21. I am growing up, they are growing up too. It’s like we all kind of just grew up together. They used to watch me on TV so they are getting used to it.”
