Behind the Scenes

Lavender Berry as Twilight Sparkle

Lavender Berry is a very talented actress who has starred in many TV shows before, most notably as Bookworm in "The Communicator." She has been acting since she was 10 years old, and has since gained a worldwide fanbase. Twilight Sparkle is said to be her most popular role to date. We asked the fans to submit questions for her to answer, so here they are.

- Lauren Faust, creator of MLP:FiM

Do you relate to Twilight Sparkle at all?

This I a question I get asked about a lot, and, to answer, yes and no. Like Twilight, I was a straight A student. However, I actually made a lot of friends and wasn't stuffing myself in a book every 5 minutes.

Did you need a stunt double for your fight with Tirek?

Yeah! Can you imagine me actually doing it? I'd be in the hospital!

What's your favorite role you've played?

XL-ZY/Lindsay from the "Recon" series of movies. She's such a powerful role model, and plus the fact she has a robot head and arm is awesome!

Who's your favorite of the Mane 6?

It would have to be Applejack. She's a hard worker, like me. The only thing I can say that's bad about her is that she can be very stubborn sometimes.

How were you able to become a human for Equestria Girls?

For starters, that wasn't me. It was CGI. Second, I was able to lend my voice to it, though.

What is your favorite movie?

Pony Wars! It's such a classic!

What's your favorite video game?

Dance Dance Revolution. It's fun to play against the other cast and crew of the show!

Are you familiar with clop?

The less said about that, the better.

Who is the most fun to work with?

Lucky Spot, who plays the voice Spike and Pipsqueak. He's just so full of energy!

Who's your favorite ship?

Twilight x Flash. Yes, I'm THAT self-centered.

What's your least favorite food?

Gems. They're too hard to chew.

Do you like the change in Twilight's character?

Honestly, I'm a little conflicted. I think her new role as princess and teacher allows for a lot more lessons, but she is absolutely TERRIBLE at it and she's letting it take over her entire personality.

Who's your favorite villain?

Queen Chrysalis.

Do you have a pet?

I have a REALLY cute cat named "Sprinkles."

What was your worst day of filming?

When we were filming "Ticket Master," we had a scene where Aerial Ace (Rainbow Dash) was about to zip up the cloud and have rain pour on me. Let's just say I ended up with a cold later that day.

And that ends the QNA with Lavender Berry! Hope you enjoyed it, because Lavender enjoyed answering them! Next is Honey Darling a.k.a. Applejack! Stay tuned!
