Mirabelle Lee talks learning how to skate, representation and more on 'Saturdays' via MetroPhilly
business with her sister, Anais, the talented creative recently landed a role on the Disney+ series, ‘Saturdays.’
The show is a single-camera comedy about the empowerment of a young girl and her roller-skating squad, and Lee plays the ever-confident Sonia, who makes her mark on and off the rink. To talk more about her role on the new Disney+ show and to dive a little deeper into what her career has been like, Mirabelle Lee sat down to discuss what fuels her both on camera and off.I originally started off as a model, and entering the industry kind of came as an accident.
Well, I always love a challenge, and when I saw that I had to roller skate in the show, [I knew] this was my opportunity to learn how to do it. Also, I just fell in love with Sonia. I actually did multiple auditions for multiple different roles in the show, but when they sent Sonia along, there was just something about her that spoke to me. I can’t even describe what, but she came very naturally to me. I’ve loved being a part of ‘Saturdays’ and it’s just been an amazing journey.
You’ve talked before about the representation you feel on this show. What does it mean to you to be part of ‘Saturdays’? It means so much to me to be a part of a show like this because even down to the little things on ‘Saturdays’—like the cool hairstyles that all the characters have, like Simone , she has really cool edges…Simone’s my edge inspiration. It’s just little things like that. Then just even in mannerisms, we’re all just super natural. It’s an all-Black cast and we don’t see that much on Disney Channel.
