Bailey, who worked with her sister Chloe as 'Chloe X Halle' and received mentorship from Beyoncé, is a talented artist with five Grammy Award nominations. She gained worldwide attention for her role as Ariel in the 2023 Disney live-action film 'The Little Mermaid'.

Director Rob Marshall praised her, saying, "She made the role completely her own," and despite casting controversies, Bailey held onto her grandparents' advice to "remember what this means for Black girls" and proved her worth through her talent.
