Notably, Cameron is one of the stars in the Descendants film series, where she played the child of Disney villain Maleficent. The craving for darker roles (or, in this case, aesthetics) is clearly something Cameron is after.
Her Descendants co-star, Sofia Carson, also walked the carpet in her best Addams Family cosplay, channeling the family’s matriarch Morticia.
Cameron performed her single “Boyfriend” during the Pre-Show, changing into a metallic bra, white overshirt, and slicked-back ponytail for the high energy performance. Her sexy video for the song, which came out earlier this year, was emotional for the 26-year-old, who wrote on TikTok: “Will come back & speak on how much it means to me to write/release a queer perspective song & have it feel powerful and right, not terrifying like I had always imagined.”
The song, which Cameron told host Nessa Diab is about her experiences as a queer person, is just another step the actor is taking toward living authentically. She previously opened up about her depression earlier this year, taking to Instagram to talk about how she was struggling “more than half the time.”
