In an exclusive interview with Meaww, Isabella Amara opened up about her struggle with body image and how she related to Bella in 'Queen America'

Beauty pageant series 'Insatiable' had a controversial premiere, but 'Queen America' premiered silently on Facebook Watch November 21.

The story revolves around a ruthless pageant coach in Oklahoma named Vick Ellis portrayed by Catherine Zeta-Jones. She is tasked to help shape aspiring contestants to win the crown and is known to have caused eating disorders in women since 1995. She now wants her teenage niece Bella, played by Isabella Amara, to attend the pageant. Bella is an antithesis of the thin girls her aunt coaches. “I help girls become better versions of themselves,” Vicki says. “Everything you do in your life is about preventing girls from becoming like me,” Bella protests; “You hate ugly girls.”
