The show centers around a dance competition for teens in a show-within-a-show format co-starring Thorne and fourteen-year-old Zendaya.
Torne also discussed her dyslexia with American Cheerleader Magazine in an April 2010 interview.
Thorne supports the Humane Society, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and Nomad Organization, an organization that provides education, food, and medical supplies to children in Africa.
She plays soccer, dances, spends time with family, and plays with her four dogs, a Cocker Spaniel and a wolf hybrid, six cats, and a turtle.
