Don’t follow this show, but it’s nice to see Milian getting work, even if it is after the previous star’s tragedy. 
 

As far as her acting skills? I barely remember the horror movie “Pulse” from back in high school lol.

I always hate when they re-cast something like this halfway through the show's run...Would much prefer they just introduced her as a new character. Still, props to her for being almost 40 and still playing a teenager in high school on TV!

True. Acknowledge/write out the character and bring in a new one, I prefer. Is she playing a teen?!

I thought Naya was a host and that was a competition, but anyways...

She was in Bring It On, after all. But, that was a long time ago, lol ?

In the first one, I think. Milian came later, & even gave her own (brand new then) song to be played at the end of the movie. 

I was so crazy about it back when she leaked the snippet of it, and the full one is still a freakin' banger. ?

Oh, ok. Yeah- great song! ?

Idk, maybe she's playing one of the teachers? All I know is it's a high school show but I can't imagine her being old enough to play one of the adult characters.

Yeah. I mean she looks great for pushing on 40, but teen?
