Letter from the Editor New York City is a city location known to the world through every type of media or outlet. In the pages of a compelling book, or an unforgettable movie on screen. For some, it’s merely a mention from a well-traveled friend. Nonetheless it holds a power and allure, an idea. It’s a city as famous as the United States itself ,and one that has produced hundreds if not thousands of what I like to call— One Time People. People who have let themselves be seduced by the artistic passion that fills the New York City streets. People who have taken that fire inside them and used it to mark the world. Differently, than anyone before them.

New York, to me, has been and continues to be a place of awakenings. Every time I find myself in the confines of the 212, something new awakens in me.

Sometimes it’s a increase to the drive already inside me. Other times it’s the micro-epiphanies that never seem to be too far for my reaching, seconds after walking a on a cobblestone street that millions have crossed before me. It’s a place up for anyone’s taking.

I hope this issue inspires the same kind of love in others for this special city.

INTRO Our Young Hollywood issue is always one of my favorite issues each month, especially seeing it all come together. This month, will prove just as strong...

Covering our first ever New York Issue is none other than How to Get Away with Murder hottie, Jack Falahee. Photographed by our very own Editor in Chief, Aleksandar Tomovic, Falahee shows us more than cool; he shows us sexy.

Speaking of sexy; Scream Queens’ Glen Powell does not disappoint. Shot by TJ Manou, Powell proves he is definitely leading man material.

We have Jem and the Hologram’s Stefanie Scott representing our SO BELLO segment. With a gorgeous style and a stunning face, Scott gives us a bit of a downtown vintage feel. Perfect for this east coast inspired issue.

Let these pages make you feel as if we brought the east coast to you.

Better yet, let the pages bring you to this magical place we call New York City...

Enjoy, Leslie Alejandro, Executive Editor @BELLOmag

Interivew with a Gallerist:

Elliott Levenglick NEW YORK GALLERIST ELLIOTT LEVENGLICK IS EXTENDING HIS BRAND TO THE WEST COAST FROM HIS NATIVE STATE OF NEW YORK. WHILE AN ART-GALLERY’S ARE FOUND ON EVERY OTHER CORNER IN MANHATTAN’S SOHO NEIGHBORHOOD, DOWNTOWN LA IS EXPERIENCING ITS OWN INFLUX OF ARTISTS TO THE CITY’S OVERSHADOWED COMMUNITY. GET TO KNOW THE 28-YEAR-OLD UPPER EAST SIDER BEFORE HE MAKES HIS MARK IN DOWNTOWN LA’S BOOMING ART SCENE.

Annina Roescheisen, Elliot Levenglick Gallery What inspired you to join this field?

Ever since I was little I have always been immersed with art, and have always been involved from a consumption standpoint. Growing up in Manhattan, I was steps from some of the best museums (Metropolitan Museum of Art, Whitney and Guggenheim) and YOUNG HOLLYWOOD issue - BELLOmag.com

was fortunate to have the opportunity to frequently familiarize myself with such great museums and galleries.

After realizing I was spending most of my time on art, I wanted to pursue the business. I look up to gallerists such as Mary Boone and Larry Gagosian, who transcended the business, having a major impact on the business. The

business has become global and being able to run the business with a global perspective is imperative in today’s world.

Why a Gallerist and not an Artist?

It’s my job to apply my knowledge of sales, marketing and finance to the 6

put on some amazing shows, focusing on installations as it will be a “project space” for the gallery.

What is one thing all of the artists you represent that in common?

All of the artists I work with and show embody poignant messages behind their work and reflect a very contemporary, progressive style of art (such as video and virtual reality installation) and aspire to be in museum shows. One artist for instance, Annina Roescheisen, whom I am showing in New York in November, shows video art, which is currently on view at the Venice Biennial at the Palazzo Bembo in the context of the European Pavillion. Her art incorporates both beautiful aesthetics in the video with sensational sound, which is a major element of the most contemporary art.

In addition to video, another artist I have shown, Rachel Rossin, has shown an interactive Virtual Reality installation and applies a technique of rendering themes from the digital world onto canvas and linen to make exceptional paintings.

Out of the entire process, from sitting down with an Artist, to the night of an opening, what is the most fun? The most important?

business while simultaneously being able to manage different personalities and work with talent. I relish the opportunity to work with artists and as a gallerist, I see myself as a social sculpture.

While the night of the opening is the most thrilling part of the job, as it is a celebration for the show, a lot of the variables behind the scenes are also equally exciting. Studio visits that take place in Brooklyn, London and Madrid, are one of my favorite parts of the process as it sets the stage for the show and provides the foundation. While the job seems incredibly glamorous with the opening reception and many evenings out at parties and events, the job is very intense hard work.k It requires a tremendous amount of time preparing in advance.

What do you look for when agreeing to work with an artist?

I look for artists who express long term vision as well as a unique progressive, style. I plan on focusing on showing immersive installations in Downtown Los Angeles.

After a presence in New York, you’re extending your brand to LA. Why? Los Angeles has been on my mind for some time now and having visited several times in the past year, I have spent a lot of time in the Downtown Arts District, which has gone through a major explosion of development with both businesses such as Bestia and Zinc Cafe as well as galleries. Once Venus over Manhattan opened last spring, and have since put on shows for Dan Colen and a striking mural by Katharine Bernhardt, I knew it was the right place (and time) to open up in Los Angeles.

In addition to being in the right environment, the space in Los Angeles gives me the opportunity to 7

TEXAS NATIVE, GLEN POWELL HAS CEMENTED HIS STATUS AS A HILARIOUS HEARTHROB (A DYING RACE) IN RYAN MURPHY’S BLOODYGENIUS DARK COMEDY, SCREAM QUEENS. POWELL PLAYS A DEAD-GIRL CRAVING FRATERNITY BROTHER WITH A HEART OF GOLD, AND A SEX DRIVE THAT SOMETIMES MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP HIS PANTS ON. HE BRINGS TO LIFE ONE OF THE MOST UN-APOLOGETIC CHARACTERS ON THE FOX SERIES, BRINGING US TO THE QUESTION. WHERE HAS HE BEEN ALL ALONG? WITH ONLY A HANDFUL OF EPISODES LEFT UNTIL THE “RED DEVIL” IS REVEALED, I ASKED SCREAM QUEENS’ BIG MAN ON CAMPUS EIGHT QUESTIONS THAT GOT HIM GOING AND LEFT ME LAUGHING.

Are you nearly as morbid your character Chad Radwell?

Do you mean do I get turned on by dead bodies? Hmmm. Really depends on if she hasn’t let herself go since dying and everything. I don’t want to say I’m crazy picky but you can’t just die and expect to get a date with me. Kidding.

Please know I’m kidding. There aren’t a whole lot of similarities between Chad Radwell and Glen Powell. Anybody who knows me knows that I’m a goofy and fun-loving guy. I’m pretty straightforward and no bullshit (the Texan in me I’m sure). And I’m not harboring too many skeletons or weird preferences that stem from dark past events. I was fortunate enough to grow up with amazing family and friends who love and support me. So the short answer is, no, I like my girls alive.

For viewers it’s something we haven’t seen before on TV. What’s it like for you as an actor, playing with this genre in smaller-form?

Ryan Murphy is a genius. In terms of television very few have been as prolific.

An entertainment titan isn’t reactive.

They don’t look at shows on the air garnering ratings and attempt to find some knockoff form. They have their finger on the pulse of pop culture and see hits where there is no precedent.

When I read “Scream Queens” for the 9

first time, I felt the voice of the show was fresh, unapologetic, and non-stop fun. As an actor all you crave is to play a character with a unique view of the world and Ryan definitely delivered on that with the creation of Chad Radwell.

The most popular guy on campus and a necropheliac. That’s unique!

Small screen or big screen my job on set doesn’t really change. The only difference with TV is I get to be surprised with new information just like the audience every time I get a script. They are about to shoot the final episode of “Scream Queens” and not one person in the cast knows who the killer is. Every time a new script comes in, the next morning at breakfast on set is a flurry of investigative journalism and hypotheses based on our new script clues. Every episode we get to be nail-biting, side-splitting fanboys like everyone watching. Except the stakes for the cast are a bit higher since we are being killed off one by one with each new script. Keep me in your prayers.

What was your favorite horror franchise growing up, if different than now?

I can’t say I was ever a fan of the horror genre. I don’t like to be scared. I went with a bunch of buddies to the movie theater. They bought tickets to see

“28 Days Later” and I bought a ticket for “Seabiscuit.” I have an overactive imagination, so I like to put as many good, happy things in my head as possible so I’m not constantly checking under my bed. I was always more of a fan of the movie “Scary Movie” than actual scary movies. To be on a show like “Scream Queens” plays to my strengths. I get to live in the camp and the comedy of horror rather than in the terror.

We are celebrating the great city of New York in this issue. When was the last time you visited The City?

My dad is from New York and I’ve been coming to New York for years. Growing up, any excuse the family had to see a new show, visit friends, or get some pizza, we were there. It’s got more flavor than any city on the planet.

Through “Scream Queens” I was introduced to a new fun thing called Upfronts. Where you present your show to advertisers before it airs. The best part about it is you get to kick it with everyone you secretly want to meet from your favorite shows. It’s fun being the only non-famous person in a room.

Stamos, having a dance-off with Terry Crews, and testing the worst pick-up lines on January Jones...except it’s real life. I highly recommend it.

I interviewed Lucien Laviscount, who confessed to me that he’s very jumpy, both off and on set. Are you?

I know! What’s that about? He’s a very masculine tough guy who would follow you into any fight, but the guy is the cheapest scare on set for sure.

You’re co-staring in Ride Along 2. What can you tell me about your character and working on the Comedy?

I was a big fan of the first Ride Along.

Kevin Hart and Ice Cube have the sort of buddy cop chemistry that I haven’t seen since Rush Hour. So obviously I wanted to be a part of the sequel. I play a guy named Troy who is the most ruthless drug dealer in Atlanta who Cube and Kevin are attempting to bring down.

In the description of the character it talked about the sleeves of tattoos this guy had. I’m tattoo-less so when I was headed to audition I bought these fake tattoo stocking things for my arms that make it look like every inch of my arm was inked up. I also went and bought some gnarly temporary gang tattoos for my neck. I got the job but when I went to Atlanta to start shooting with Ice Cube, Kevin Hart, and the director, Tim Story, they were all looking for the real life gangbanger who auditioned and they couldn’t quite understand that I was the same guy. Needless to say, makeup had their work cut out for them.

After working their magic I felt I would make Atlanta’s top drug dealers proud.

As a fan, I think the sequel is even more hilarious than the original. And I’m just hoping Kevin and Cube don’t lose my number before Ride Along 3.

I read that you were in a Fraternity in College. How’d your experience in Greek Life differ from those portrayed in the series, aside from the obvious murder-plot?

Yes, very few of my fraternity brothers were murdered in the time I was on

campus. Something we definitely touted proudly in our chapter publications.

Ryan Murphy does an amazing job taking inspiration from social spheres that operate in a bubble of sorts (a glee club, a plastic surgery practice, a sorority, etc). He then takes the rules of that world and puts a hyperbolic filter on it. The Dickie Dollar Scholars in Scream Queens look absolutely nothing like the fraternity I joined at the University Texas. A Ryan Murphy fraternity is way more colorful, vibrant, and flavor-filled than anything reflected in reality, but that embracing of fantasy and escapism is what makes his shows so much fun. I mean, if I dressed in real life the way I do in “Scream Queens,” I would kick my own ass. But that’s the beauty of a Ryan Murphy show, you aren’t inhibited by the rules of reality, only entertainment. So my ass will go unkicked. For now.

There’s no doubt your next film Everybody Wants Some is going to be special. Now that you’ve seen it, the question is how special? What was it like working with Richard Linklater?

Richard Linklater is one of our few living auteurs. Only Richard Linklater can make a Richard Linklater movie.

So you are already working with a living legend. This movie was his follow up to “Boyhood” and is the spiritual sequel to “Dazed & Confused.” We knew we were on a set that every actor in the world would kill to be on. And a movie about a baseball team in 1980...the music, the mustaches, the style, and the swagger...who wouldn’t want to take a time-machine back to that era? But I always try to manage expectations as there are millions of movies in existence and only a handful of classics. I just got to see the movie and Richard Linklater hit the bullseye. The most fun time I’ve ever had shooting a movie will be the most fun time you ever have watching one. I will guarantee you won’t stop smiling. It comes to theaters April 15.

The mustache will reign once again.

‘LET’S FALL’ FOR

Dana Williams

BY HIKO MITSUZUKA (@TheFirstEcho)

SHE’S A REALITY-COMPETITION VETERAN (REMEMBER LAST YEAR’S RISING STAR?) AND HAPPENS TO BE MIDDLE-SCHOOL PALS WITH LEIGHTON MEESTER (REMEMBER THEIR AWESOME FLEETWOOD MAC COVER THAT WENT VIRAL? IF NOT, YOUTUBE IT). BUT DANA WILLIAMS IS PROVING TO BE SO MUCH MORE, BRINGING SOME OLDSCHOOL FOLK-JAZZ TO THE POP LANDSCAPE WITH HER LATEST EP LET’S FALL (OUT DECEMBER 11TH).

If 2014 gave us The Lonely Hour, her debut collection of silky smooth throwbacks reminiscent of those neosoul acts that flourished in the late aughts (Duffy, Amy Winehouse, etc.), then 2015 is delivering a second act that’s just as mesmerizing.

Like its title track, the songs on Let’s Fall sound as if they were born out of a 1959 jam session (and just when you thought the 90s were back). Unabashedly romantic and charming, Williams’s sophomore effort also provides some relief for any pop connoisseur looking for a refreshing break from the more electronic fodder that passes for Top 40 nowadays.

That said, attention music supervisors working on the next Sofia Coppola project, indie rom-com, or dating website commercial: this EP is ripe for the picking.

The delicate, ethereal vocals on Fall perfectly compliment the retro 17

production stylings and lyricism. Such magic isn’t any more apparent than in lead single “Something To Believe In,” a loungey, semi-reggae groove that’s just screaming to be played during a beachside cocktail hour. If you prefer something with more of an eerie undertone, there’s “Guardian Alien,” a beautiful ode to otherworldly love.

Then there’s the I’mgonna-be-alright anthems “Damage,” and “Slow and Steady.” (Longing for some good old-fashioned cuddling never sounded so seductive and innocent at the same time.) And when you’re done with those, stay for the faint trumpets in the pleading-but-notcloying “Come Back.”

In other words, grab a blanket and curl up on the couch. You just found the soundtrack to your Saturday night at home.

TERROR

BY TIM MURDOCK (@TimMurdock)

AUTUMN IN THE BIG APPLE USUALLY BRINGS TO MIND FABULOUS SHOPPING, BROADWAY SHOWS AND A CROWDED STARBUCKS ON EVERY CORNER FILLED WITH THE SMELL OF PUMPKIN SPICE LATTES. IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER? YES, THERE IS!

WAIT UNTIL DARK

IT’S THE DARK SIDE OF NEW YORK CITY--IN THE FORM OF HORROR MOVIES! THE METROPOLIS HAS A BEATING HEART THAT PUMPS BLOOD EACH OCTOBER WITH VIEWINGS OF THESE DELICIOUSLY DEVILISH HALLOWEEN TREATS THAT ARE NOT TO BE MISSED.

1. WAIT UNTIL DARK - Dating back to 1967, fashion icon Audrey Hepburn plays a blind woman in her New York City apartment who is burglarized by three men and a game of cat and mouse starts escalating to a climax that takes place in the dark. Gather up some friends in your brownstone and kill the lights and let the jumps begin.

Don’t cheat and watch with the lights on. I guarantee many jumps in the dark.

2. ROSEMARY’S BABY -Director Roman Polanski’s classic captures a creepy Central Park West building and a sweet Mia Farrow who becomes pregnant by her husband . . . or Satan? The neighbors are eerie to say the least.

Mia’s performance as Rosemary reacting to the mysterious things going on will leave you shaken as she learns the truth. Before The Exorcist, this film tackled subjects not suited for the casual viewer, so be prepared to have this film stay with you long after the credits roll. This film is also noted for Mia’s cute hair and fashion that is still being copied to this day.

3. THE SENTINEL - In keeping with the theme of beautiful women in peril, The Sentinel sees Cristina Raines as a model moving into a New York brownstone.

Can you guess what happens next? If you guessed that the building was built over the gateway to hell, you are correct!

The joy from this film comes from seeing pretty big names in a movie of this nature playing it straight in a gatesof-hell type movie. It is amzing to see screen legend Ava Gardner, Burgess Meredith, and Dirty Dancing’s Jerry Orbach all captivating the scenery. My personal favorite is a very young Beverly D’ Angelo playing against her typical roles. The Sentinel just got an amazing Blu-ray treatment from Shout! Factory loaded with extras, not to be missed by the horror fan in all of our lives.

ROSEMARY’S BABY 4. GHOSTBUSTERS - It is hard to walk around the streets of NYC without thinking of the giant Stay Puff Marshmallow Man who once climbed 55 Central Park West in the 1984 blockbuster Ghostbusters. If you have ever been to a Halloween party, this movie is either playing in the background or the song is on repeat year after year. For the one person who has not experienced Halloween, Ghostbusters is about four guys that start a business cleaning up ghosts in the Big Apple.

5. VAMPIRE IN BROOKLYN - The departed and beloved master of suspense Wes Craven directed the VAMPIRE IN BROOKLYN

Eddie Murphy horror-comedy Vampire in Brooklyn in 1995. Murphy plays a vampire looking for a date, and he finds one in Angela Bassett. Worth watching this Halloween as a tribute to Wes Craven--and Murphy’s career.

6. FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VIII: JASON TAKES MANHATTAN - My personal favorite New York horror movie is this 1989 slasher. However, by the time you get to an eighth title in a franchise and try a big city storyline in a horror film, it may lead to a flimsy story. My first glimpse of New York City was from this movie. Granted that, perhaps from budgetary restraints, Jason arrives in Times Square in the last 10 minutes of the film. No one is even fazed by hockey masked killer Jason in Times Square in 1989, which was jaw-dropping for different reasons. If anything, he is just getting in the way of the New Yorkers’ daily struggle of traveling from place to place. Today, Times Square is arguably a scarier place - just try going face-toface with a tourist!

HONORABLE MENTIONS: Lauren Bacall in the 1981 thriller The Fan, the foundfootage monsterpiece Cloverfield, and Tim Robbins’s creepy Jacob’s Ladder.

New York has plenty of heart-thumping, terror-filled movies for Halloween that’ll do the trick. . . or treat!

architecture, and movement. Using the traditional painting technique of applying dark colors first and then light, I sculpt my body into a classically ideal male form.I’ll be creating more art in the near future, so stay tuned!

I’ve noticed you tend to twist society’s views on gender in your wardrobe and how you present yourself. What do you have to say about that? Do gender roles play a part in your process when you’re choosing what to wear?

Photo By Domo Williams

I think it’s interesting that traditional gender roles have been completely ingrained into clothing and colors.

I think, in general, men should be nicer, gentler people. Ultra masculine stereotypes are what perpetuate rape culture and everything else which makes the patriarchy bad. I’m attracted to the subversive nature of painting my nails or wearing a woman’s suit. It’s not about dressing as a woman. It’s about creating a more interesting image of a person than history has shown me. I

How would you describe your style?

My taste in clothes is similar to my taste in art. It’s happy and sad. It’s pink and black. It’s masculine and feminine.

It’s beach and goth. It’s bigger than clothes, there’s a world in my head, but clothes are what everyone sees.

You called yourself a performance artist once. What does that mean to you?

I have a couple of performances on YouTube; check them out! One is called “WHITEFACE.” I’ll always have the privilege of a white man in the world. It’s up to me what to do with this convenient position I’ve inherited.

I’d like to invite people to laugh at me, the silly white man.I also did a second, live performance of “WHITEFACE” in which a video of my face was projected onto a stuffed dummy. The audience was invited to hit the dummy with a baseball bat.Another performance I have on YouTube is called “BEEFCAKE,” and is a performance of stereotypical masculinity using body paint, YOUNG HOLLYWOOD issue - BELLOmag.com

don’t believe that traditional gender roles must be completely reversed, but rather should be made irrelevant.

Clothes must become just clothes, then people will become just people. I mix traditionally feminine elements with masculine to create a more subversive use of all these styles and clothes I’ve found here on planet earth. If I can change how people dress, I can change how people act.

What do you feel that New York, living in New York, has done for you as an artist?

I don’t think it’s what it was during the 70’s for Warhol and Basquiat, but there is a creative nightlife scene in New York through which I’ve been able to meet a lot of cool people. The Internet has done a lot for me as well. I’ve met people on the Internet and then met those people in real life. There is still a concentration of artists and creative people in New York City, even though I’m connecting with them often online before in real life. I went to the Internet, and it has brought me to people in my own city, as well as around the world.

What influences the choices you make as a performance artist?

My relation to society’s standards and ideals has influenced a lot of my work so far. I am dealing with my overwhelming privelege as a straight, white male, and questioning boundaries, binaries and norms set by others. My choices are also informed by my own aesthetic taste and my belief in humor as a powerful, thought-provoking way of speaking truth.

New York City is known for the artists and personalities it produces.Is there a notable New York Resident you especially find interesting?

What is your theory as an artist?

Artists should make our world visible in a new way, or show us a new world. One needs a specific view of either our current world or his or her own dream world, and to show things through this lens.

THESE DAYS, WITH NATIONWIDE EVENTS LIKE ABC’S #TGIT (THANK GOD IT’S THURSDAYS), IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE A THURSDAY NIGHT WITHOUT JACK FALAHEE PUSHING THE PRIMETIME ENVELOPE ON HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER. IN FACT, IF YOU ARE LIKE ME OR ANY OF THE NINE MILLION OTHER FANS THE SERIES PULLS IN EACH WEEK, THE THOUGHT OF SUCH AN ABSENCE IS UNACCEPTABLE.

The 26-year-old Michigan born, New York-educated actor made waves last year during the freshman season of the gripping ABC drama, playing a racy yet confident intern to Annalise Keating, a college professor and attorney, played by the legendary Viola Davis. Fans of the show could not get enough of Falahee’s performance, clothed and unclothed.

This year, aside from the very serious murder plot his character is entangled in, there are other matters at hand, like re-introducing HIV into prime-time television. The storyline began to unravel during the season one finale when viewers learned Connor’s boyfriend Oliver (Conrad Ricamora) has tested positive for the virus. With a second season nearing the middle mark, I sat down with Jack Falahee and took a look back at the elements that made How To Get Away With Murder an instant favorite.

Lucky for me, Falahee was heading to a table-read immediately after our interview. I assumed a table-read for a series as explosive as HTGAWM could be unalike other network shows. It was a silly assumption, but I was right. With the afternoon’s work day on his mind, the NYU graduate gave me exclusive “ShondaLand” intel.

“Usually Pete [Nowalk] will not give us the scripts until the table-read because he wants to see all of our reactions,” he confesses. “The show really does have you on the edge of the seat and that’s what the table-reads for us are like.

We’re in there yelling and turning the pages and screaming at each other,” says Falahee, before he mock-yells “Holy shit!” across the room.

For him, this precise nature of the show was what initially had him hooked, even before he auditioned for the role, just by reading the pages. “That was over a year ago and they continue to be pageturners today,” he says.

One of the page-turning scenes that kept viewers returning week after week was a scene viewers came to know around the internet as the “bonfire flashback” scene. It played during nearly every episode as the story developed, showing bits and pieces of a night that later proved to change the course of every character’s life. Falahee remembers the scene well.

“We shot it maybe four to five times, which was fun and a little bit hard I admit, because we all had to match our performances from the scene.

We had to think of the hows, down to the cadence, and how we were saying our lines. Everyone was so good to work with that we got it into our body each time,” explains Falahee. “On the show, everyone of us is a trained actor. We all have our process. I think that shows.”

Having a show runner who pays close attention to the details of narrative isn’t too bad either. “A big thing that Pete talked about with each one of us is how our characters cope and how we manage stress in a high stakes situation like the ones we find ourselves in,” remembers Falahee. “To explain my character’s behavior the night of the murder, the word we kept using for me was Connor’s downward spiral. He kind of handles it the most poorly. He’s so

in over his head that to him, it’s almost laughable.”

Although his mesmerizing performance can be credited to him and only him, the actor assures us it has to start from the top. “I think Shonda and her producing partner Betsy Beers really set the tone with having an open door,” he says. “I think it’s why their shows do so well, it creates this constructive environment for the crew, the actors, everyone.

She’s busy though, but being president [of ShondaLand] she’s obviously a big part of our lives. Meanwhile Pete’s our day-to-day, he’s calling the shots. To be frank, with Murder being my big break into the industry, I feel blessed! It’s a luxury I’m well aware of.”

Surely season two will bring a collection of new scenes and relationships to obsess over. For Falahee, he’s looking forward to much simpler things. “I’ll enjoy having some free groceries thanks to Kraft Services,” he quickly jokes before switching gears. “Mostly I’m excited to be spending time with everyone again. Karla [Souza] spends a lot of time in Mexico and Alfred [Enoch] lives in London, so during hiatus, you could say we’re scattered across the wind.”

Before we part, I ask him the ultimate question. Does he believe one of the “Keating Five” could be the next to end up dead?

“Absolutely,” he’s quick to reply. “Every week the first thing I do is flip through the script to make sure it’s not Connor.”

Disney Royalty

WORDS BY MICHELLE GANNEY

AUSTIN NORTH ON HIS TRANSFORMATIVE ROLE AND HIS BEVY OF LOYAL FANS.

YOUNG HOLLYWOOD issue - BELLOmag.com

With his surfer boy good looks and luscious blonde locks, every single girl in sight is swooning over Austin North. Moreover, his well-documented Twitter and Instagram pages give his fans a glimpse into his adventurous and enviable lifestyle. From actor to musician, this ingénue has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, which he was more than happy to divulge to BELLO. BELLO: You have a big fanbase on social media. Do you find that a responsibility?

Austin North: I love using social media as a tool to connect with my fans and keep them up to date with my life. It does not feel like a responsibility, I have a lot of fun with it!

B: How has the success of I Didn’t Do It changed your life?

AN: Well, since pretty much every kid on planet earth watches Disney Channel it is kind of hard not to get recognized when I go out in public.

It’s funny to watch kids react, even the parents (laughs).

B: In what ways do you relate to your character, Logan Watson?

AN: Logan loves to crack jokes and have fun in every situation he is in. I could say I am very similar when it comes to that. I always try to make people laugh. It does not always work out but I just roll with it.

B: Olivia Holt graced the cover of BELLO last April. How is it working alongside her in I Didn’t Do It? AN: I could not have asked for a better twin. We have become very close friends and our personalities seem to get along really well. We

are always acting like a bunch of goof balls on and off set.

B: What is your dream role to be cast as in the future?

AN: My dream role would be Paul Walker’s younger brother or relative in one of The Fast and the Furious movies. He had a big influence on my life and I am obsessed with this franchise.
