Maisy Stella
At just 15 years old, Maisy Stella (born December 13, 2003) has already experienced monumental success in her career. She began starring in the hit ABC TV series Nashville in 2012 as Daphne Conrad, alongside her real-life sister Lennon Stella, who plays Maddie Conrad. The series moved over to CMT (Country Music Television) for Season 5. Season 6 will air in January 2018 on CMT. Prior to acting in Nashville, Maisy had already gained national attention when her and Lennon's cover of Robyn's "Call your Girlfriend" went viral. The performance captured the hearts of millions worldwide and resulted in their first appearance on Good Morning America. Their YouTube channel has over 100 million views and nearly 800,000 subscribers.
In April 2013, the sisters had a show-stopping performance of "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers on Nashville. When ABC released the cover to the radio, it not only became the #1 most added song in the nation, but it also rose to the Top 40 of the Billboard Songs chart. Their rendition remains the #1 most downloaded song of all the hit TV show's releases. In addition, Maisy and Lennon have sold more singles than any other cast member on the show. Later that same year, they were invited to perform at the CMA awards and present Taylor Swift with the Pinnacle Award.
Maisy went on to have the summer of a lifetime in 2014. Maisy spent it performing at The White House, singing at the wedding of Kimberly Perry (from The Band Perry) and playing shows across the globe in places like Park City, Utah, and Portugal.
In April 2015, Maisy added a new title to her resume: "Author." Maisy and Lennon partnered with HarperCollins Publishing to release a children's book called "In The Waves," which is based on their original song with the same title. To promote their new book, Maisy and Lennon appeared on Good Morning America for the 3rd time, The View, Entertainment Tonight and BuzzFeed. Maisy has also presented at the Radio Disney Awards, appeared on the TODAY show, Fox & Friends and countless other media outlets.
Maisy has already started to make her mark in the fashion world. She has been included on numerous "best dressed lists," such as U.S. Weekly, People Magazine and USA Today. She partnered with Seventeen Magazine and InStyle to be a special correspondent. In February 2016, she attended New York Fashion Week for the second time and walked in the Red Dress fashion show. Her eye for fashion is not limited to just clothing though. In July 2016, Maisy and Lennon came out with an exclusive furniture collection with Pottery Barn Teen. The line highlights their eclectic and vintage style.
In June 2017, Maisy recorded and starred in a music video for the song "Riding Free", which is the theme song for the DreamWorks' series Spirit Riding Free. She also played the voice of Hester in Season 3, Episode 1 of Spirit Riding Free. The episode premiered on Netflix in November 2017. Maisy also made a television appearance as a guest judge on Top Chef Jr. in December of 2017.
