15 TV And Movie Role Models For Young Black Girls
Rocky Blue, “Shake It Up”
Zendaya Coleman starred as Rocky Blue on this hit Disney dance show. Rocky is smart, level-headed, practical and responsible. She’s the opposite to her best friend, CeCe (Bella Thorne) yet they balance each other out. As the series progessed, she became more outspoken and assertive. She’s a positive role model for all the goody two shoes with an edge. Because oh boy, can she dance!
Blue’s dream is to be a dance superstar (with her best friend, of course), and she dances on the show, “Shake It Up.”
She’s a pure example of following your dreams.
