<p>I think, considering how Maia is such a new person on Disney, with TBM coming out and her staring on<i> The Fosters</i>, I think she's still in that new actress spotlight. People from Disney are excited for the movie, and people from ABC like her for her starring role. Maia really has been able to appeal to both younger and older age groups, as well as being the main star in two big performances. Because Laura Marano has a tighter schedule and she isn't exactly "new" to the acting business, her spotlight has kind of faded out, even though Laura still remains extremely talented.
