Mallory James Mahoney On Disney Channel Bunk'd, Personal Style, Charity And Being Vegetarian.


Congrats on Season 4 of Bunk'd. Tell us more about how you may or may not relate to your character 'Destiny Baker'?

Thank you! Season 4 has been such a fun filming experience. I can relate a little more with my character Destiny this season because she has taken a break from pageants and now has a strong interest in doing charity work. I love being involved with charities that I’m passionate about. What's your favorite memories working with the cast and being a part of a long tenured show in times where many are being canceled.

I love how all of us on the cast have fun handshakes with each other. Also, I love that we are real friends on and off set. We care about each other’s interest and want the best for each other. I’m so incredibly grateful to be part of a show on Disney Channel that is making history for its long running stance. It has been such a special time in my life.

How would you describe your everyday style? Any style obsessions?

I’m all over the place with fashion. I love fashion and all of its forms. I honestly dress with my mood. Days that I feel girly I will rock some dresses and heels or fun boots. Days where I am active I will be in yoga pants and hoodie and running shoes. Lazy days I will sport jeans and a snuggly sweater. I would say I’m a bit obsessed with shoes of all types but my favorite are maybe boots. You can never go wrong with an awesome pair of Dr. Martins or some fun studded boots. I love variety.

Curly hair is your staple look, do you naturally have curly hair and what tips can you share on how others can maintain their curls and volume?

Yes, my hair is naturally curly. My biggest tip is to sleep on a silk pillowcase. It helps curls not get too frizzy.

Why is Neuro Fitness Foundation important to you?

The Neuro Fitness Foundation and Christopher and Dana Reeves Foundation are extremely dear to my heart. My uncle TJ is a quadriplegic so I have seen firsthand how having a fitness gym that specializes around people who have disabilities can be so beneficial to their life. As a vegetarian, what is your favorite meatless meal? For a beginner vegetarian, what dishes should they try to gradually convert?

I have been a vegetarian now for nine years. My favorite meal would probably be protein pasta with olive oil and Cesar salad, no dressing (I’m not a fan of any sauces, or dressings). I feel that beginners in a veggie lifestyle should start with incorporating as many vegetables in eating and try some different ways (raw, steamed, sautéed). Also many new vegetarians enjoy trying the plant based meat like products. I also think it’s important to have protein shakes to keep your levels up and continue growing.

If a fan took over your music playlist, what would they be surprised to see and hear?

I think if a fan took over my music playlist they would be surprised at how eclectic my music is. I love so many artists! I love pop, rock, alternative, rap, oldies, indie, singer/songwriter folk, old school country, classic rock. I like everything and just like my fashion, my playlist depends on my mood. I love Imagine Dragons, Eminem, Otis Redding, Bob Marley, Kings of Leon, Queen, Billie Eilish, Van Morrison, Bruno Mars, White stripes, Taylor Swift, Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, Vampire Weekend, Arctic Monkeys, Mumford & Sons... my list is endless. Tell us about any other projects in the works and how your supporters can be involved?

I have a very fun project that will premiere soon but I’m not at liberty just yet to tell what it is. But, be on the lookout because I am excited to share more about it soon! My character in this project is very different from Destiny from Bunk’d.
