[S]he's had some big time brushes with showbiz.
When she was nine, for example, Chelsey was cast as the speaking voice of Young Nala in the movie The Lion King! She got to record the part at Disney Studios, and an animator sketched Young Nala based on Chelsey's look and voice. A few weeks after recording, however, top executives realized that Chelsey's voice was similar in timbre to the voice of Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who had the part of Simba, so they made the decision to give the part to another young girl who sounded completely different. "It was a close one though," says Chelsey. "I still have a framed sketch of what I would have looked like as Nala."
Chelsey sounded like Jonathan Taylor Thomas?
