Bridgit Mendler

Bridgit Mendler relied solely on her natural acting talent and bubbly personality to emerge as one of the Disney Channel's biggest discoveries. Mendler bounced around as a supporting player on some of the network's most popular teen shows until she landed a starring role on "Good Luck Charlie" (Disney Channel, 2010- ), a series that marked the return of the family sitcom. Mendler played a teenager who documented her suburban family's life on camera for her baby sister to watch when she grows up. Mendler further cemented her status as a suitable successor to former teen queen Miley Cyrus when she starred in "Lemonade Mouth" (Disney Channel, 2011), where her relatable charm and squeaky clean image made the young actress a role model in her own right.
