Her Twitter Fingers Are Out of Control - We all saw the tweets she unleashed on rapper (and bully) Azealia Banks, especially when she said her memes are more relevant than Bank’s career. Ouch. This young woman can snatch your edges off with all kinds of class. That’s a rare talent. (Photo: Skai Jackson via Twitter)

She Can Laugh at Herself - When the teen posted a photo of herself waiting in a greenroom to be interviewed on Instagram, it went viral, becoming a hilarious meme. While she could have taken it personally, Jackson instead chose to laugh at herself, even joining in on the fun by posting some memes of herself on her own social media.

She’s a New-Yawker - Born in Staten Island, the star spends her time between living in Harlem and Los Angeles with her mother Kiya Cole. Cole noted on her own Instagram page that her daughter’s fire comes from being a New Yorker. Translation: She is not the one. (Photo: Joshua Blanchard/Getty Images)

She’s Been Working Since Birth...Literally - OK, maybe not straight out of her mother’s womb, but Skai has been in the business since she was 9 months old, working on more than 30 commercials and numerous films and TV shows, including Disney's Jessie, before her new show on the channel, Bunk'd. Talk about being a hard worker!(Photo: at Szwajkos/Getty Images for Child Magazine)
