Arguably one of the hardest-working actresses in Hollywood, Bailee Madison just released a YA novel, capsule collection, and has a new season of Good Witch and horror flick, The Strangers: Prey at Night on the horizon
Bailee Madison breezes through The London Hotel's revolving door in a long, cream faux fur coat by Elisabetta Franchi (it's late January). Straight from a photo shoot, the 18-year-old actress is in full make-up and donning black leggings and a blush- colored turtleneck. I wave to her from the lobby desk. Her raspberry-hued lips turn up into a smile as she walks toward me. She immediately envelopes me in an embrace and introduces me to her mother. Within the first few minutes of meeting Bailee, I am taken with her genuine warmth. Her intimate gestures and assurances make me feel as though we're old friends.
