Lucy Hale has delighted audiences in many of her projects, but the actress has revealed for each ‘yes’ she received from a casting director, there have been many more who told her ‘no.’

The actress, 35, who is dating Australian reality star Harry Jowsey, spoke about one audition that didn’t turn out the way she had hoped while promoting her film F*** Marry Kill on Buzzfeed’s The Puppy Interview.

When asked about various roles the Make You Believe singer has auditioned for, she listed them off while trying to wrangle some adorable pups. 

‘Oh my gosh, I’ve auditioned for Pitch Perfect, Hairspray, Hannah Montana, 50 Shades of Grey, The Substance,’ she said. 

‘I feel like, because I’ve lived in L.A. almost 20 years, everyone who gets the role is always, it’s meant to be their thing, but for every ‘yes’ to an audition, there’s like a lineup of 200 that you heard a ‘no’ for,’ she explained.

‘I should probably go back like in journals and look at all the things I’ve auditioned for.’

Lucy Hale, 35, has revealed she once auditioned for a role that eventually went to Miley Cyrus, 32. ‘When I still lived in Tennessee and I was 14 at the time… it was a couple years before they had cast Miley in it,’ she recalled

One project she hoped she might get was that of Hannah Montana, which eventually went to Miley Cyrus. 

‘When I still lived in Tennessee and I was 14 at the time, so this would have been, math, math, 21 years ago, and it was a couple years before they had cast Miley in it,’ she recalled.

Even though she didn’t get the part, the audition process made an impression on the young future star.

‘I remember the audition. It was a taped audition in Tennessee. It was the audition that like made me want to be an actress,’ she declared.

‘I remember that vividly, it was very cool.’

It was on a the Nickelodeon kids’ show Josh and Drake where Hale got her first big break. 

‘I had one word on Drake and Josh on Nickelodeon, and I was 15,’ she said of the experience, which still seemed to remember as if it were yesterday.

‘And I was wearing an orange shirt and like a blue terrycloth skirt. I was very nervous. In the scene, Drake [Bell]’s character, he was like, “What’s your name?” And I go, “Hazel!” And he goes, “Like the nut?” And I go, “uh-huh!”‘
