Hi, I'm McKenzie Foy, and I'm here at Young Hollywood to play a game of Firsts.
First movie/TV show you ever saw?
I know the first film that I saw in theaters was Brother Bear, and I was pretty little. I don't remember how old I was, but I was I was pretty young.
Uh, first pet.
My first pet was a dog named Dusty.
First person you were ever starstruck over?
Ooh. I was at an event and Oprah was there. That was kind of the first time. I was like, oh my god, it's Oprah. I I don't think I said anything. I think it kind of was just I think that's all that came out, but luckily I was with one of my friends and she she does talking. Yeah, she was cool. She was really nice.
First time you were recognized in public.
Um, it was probably sometime when I was doing Twilight, but I don't remember which the first one was. I think I was probably like ninth.
First celebrity crush?
Dylan O'Brien. Yeah. Dylan O'Brien, enough said.
First paranormal experience, if you ever.
Ooh, okay. So, I did a film in North Carolina, and I stayed in a haunted we were all staying in a beach house and it was haunted. It was actually really crazy and things would like randomly fall over or you'd hear like footsteps and stuff. It was on carpeted floors, but it sounded like hardwood. It was really crazy, and it was really really fun. And our shoes would randomly disappear. Like we could never find our shoes. We'd put them all by the stairs at night and then they'd just disappear. It was really weird. It was cool though.
First impression of Young Hollywood.
Um, my first impression of Young Hollywood was I was pretty young. You're never like perfectly calm when you go on an audition. You always have like that little bit of, oh, I hope I do good, but not really like nervous, but more like, you know, like you're about to take a like a test. Yeah, everybody was really nice when I came here and it was it was fun. I'd like it tons.
First job you ever had.
My first job was when I was three, and it was a photoshoot for Ralph Lauren. It was really fun. I was so little and I had like a little hat, and there was a horse. That's what I remember from it.
First embarrassing audition story.
Ooh. I don't know if it's necessarily the first one, but I I did an audition. I finished it and then I went to walk out of the room and run towards my mom. I was pretty little. But there was a mirror there and I saw my mom's reflection and I ran into the mirror really hard and I fell down and I was just like, Oh, and then I ran over to my mom. My mom's like, Thank you so much for watching my Game of Firsts. Make sure to see the Nutcracker and the Four Realms.
