An immediate outpouring of support flooded Audrey’s inbox. Nickelodeon’s Kira Kosarin was one of the first people to reach out to Audrey, who stars on The Thundermans.
“Incredible words by @audreywhitby. I’ve been proud of Audrey so many times, but never like this,” Kira tweeted.
We knew JustJaredJr.com readers would have so many questions for Audrey, so we asked her if she’d record a video letter for us, and she did.
Listen to her talk about the experience, what her parents thought about her arrest and why activism is so important to her:

Peyton List looks prim and proper in a plaid dress while attending the Beautycon Media’s Digital Creator Town Hall with Hillary Clinton on Tuesday (June 28) at NeueHouse in Hollywood, Calif.
After the event, Hillary took to her Instagram to share part of her message from that evening and a group selfie with the attendees.
“The internet and what you all do as creators, is such a gift. I know…some of you have kept people alive because you have been able to communicate with a person who was bullied or a young person who was struggling with their sexuality and feeling all alone. And you were able to give that person a sense of survival and a feeling they weren’t by themselves,” she said.
Hillary added, “So I know that many of you have used your channels, your outreach, in really positive ways, as role models, as interveners, in some instances, to help. So you have to help me figure out how do we keep the best of everything you’re doing and everything the internet means.”
