Interviews
Charli D’Amelio – StarDog and TurboCat
By: Lisa Steinberg
Q) Please tell us the premise for Stardog and Turbocat.
A) The movie is about a dog named Buddy (Nick Frost) who launches into space and ends up in a place where pets are not welcome. He then meets a cat who tried to help him reunite with his owner. The two of them go through a lot of obstacles throughout the movie and meet a lot of fun characters along the way, including my character Tinker and it really just shows the power and importance of friendship and perseverance.
Q) What was it about the film that made you want to be a part of it?
A) I loved the message in this movie! I also felt like I could really relate to my character, Tinker. This made it such a good part for me to play and I’m so excited for people to see that.
Q) How would you describe your character Tinker?
A) I play a little mouse named Tinker who is shy, but still uses her voice to stick up for what she believes in and helps her friends. I love that even though she is quiet at times, she is not afraid to speak her mind when it’s going to make a difference.
Q) Buddy lands on a planet where pets are no longer welcome, but is desperate to get back to his owner. What do you think it is that makes the bond between pets and their owners so strong?
A) I have a dog that I’m super close with – she is my best friend. For me, it’s that your pets are always there for you and love you, no matter what. Pets are also just super cute, so you have to love them back!
Q) What message do you hope viewers take away from watching Stardog and Turbocat?
A) I hope that everyone who watches can see the importance of teamwork and sticking up for yourself and your friends.
Q) What did you personally take away from your time working on the film?
A) The whole process of voice recording was so cool! I had never done anything like this before and tackling something new made me more confident. I was nervous at first since I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but everyone I worked with made me feel so comfortable – I love the entire thing!
Q) You’re well known for your TikToks. What inspires you to create your videos?
A) I think having the freedom to post whatever makes me happy!
Q) What would you suggest to someone who is considering making their first TikTok video?
A) Just have fun with it and be yourself!
Q) Since you are a part of social media, why is that that an important way for you to connect with your fans?
A) I think it’s really important for me to connect with my fans since they are the ones supporting me. I want to give back and show them the same support that they give me in as many ways as I can!
Q) What would you like to say to everyone who are fans and supporters of the work you do?
A) Thank you all so much for supporting me and helping me grow into the best possible person that I can be. Your support means the world to me and without you, I wouldn’t be able to do amazing things like this!
