Ever since she can remember, Jenna Ortega<\/strong> wanted to act. Her mom, she recalled to Vogue Mexico and Latin America<\/a><\/em>, \u201cwas adamant about not letting me, and I was even more adamant, saying, \u2018If you don\u2019t let me, I\u2019ll be mad at you forever.\u2019\u201d It worked. Before she was 15, the Wednesday<\/em> actress, now 22, had landed small roles in movies and series, including Jane the Virgin<\/em>.<\/p>\n

While young Jenna achieved her dream, she told the mag that the fame that\u2019s come from it \u2014 Wednesday<\/em> surpassed a billion hours watched three weeks after its release \u2014 has been confusing. \u201cI think the celebrity world is very strange,\u201d she told the outlet. \u201cThe glorification of someone you\u2019ll never know on a deeper level is fascinating to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also realized that the entertainment business can be a dangerous place for a child or young woman. \u201cI\u2019ve always known what it\u2019s like to not have a voice,\u201d she shared. \u201cAnd that terrifies me. I don\u2019t want to be in that situation again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked what she meant by not having a voice, Jenna told the outlet, \u201cFor most of my career, I didn\u2019t know how to express myself. I didn\u2019t know I could, because I was very young.\u201d Hinting at experiences that were \u201ca little more difficult,\u201d she added, \u201cI shut myself away and became very insecure about my place.\u201d<\/p>\n

With Netflix already renewing her show for a third season, the actress has expanded her role, becoming a producer on the series. Her top priority: \u201cI make sure it\u2019s a safe environment for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
