Naomi Scott, once a star of Lemonade Mouth, has always had the chops: The British actress has a history of playing pop stars, which says something about her effortless magnetism and good looks. She grew up listening to gospel and R&B in church; both her parents were pastors. In 2011, she broke out as Mo, a good girl turned rocker chick in the aforementioned Disney Channel original movie. That led to a sequence of lead parts, including as Jasmine in the live-action Aladdin, one of the new-gen angels in the Charlie’s Angels reboot, and Skye Riley, a glam-pop vixen staging a comeback, in Smile 2. She could have gone the usual Disney-alum route by hiring big hitmakers and brand managers to oversee a wild-child invention. But instead she kept things low-key, quietly releasing a self-written album with a title inspired by Sylvia Plath. (She did dye her hair bright pink, though.)
