...here are a few young actresses out and about at different events.
On June 27, Disney Channel Girl Meets World star Rowan Blanchard (she is 13, y'all) delivered a speech about gender equality at the UN Women U.S. National Committee 2015 Annual Conference. The actress was poised and passionate as she spoke, telling the crowd, "Around this age, studies show that girls lose interest in S.T.E.M. subjects, science, technology, engineering, and math. Unfortunately, those studies show that one of the reasons is that girls in my age group would rather be liked, than be engineers." Rowan told Just Jared Jr. before her speech: "I can't even believe it's happening. I'm speaking about gender inequality in youth, which is something that is so incredibly important to me."
AS SOON AS I WAS DONE WITH THE SPEECH I SCREAMED YAY AND STARTED DANCING TO BEYONCÉ

June 28, 2015 On June 27, Emma Watson, 25, took a break from filming her live-action adaptation Beauty and her Beast to attend the British Summertime Music Festival in Hyde Park, London. She was there specifically for the Taylor Swift concert.
I love seeing Emma doing something so normal -- and doesn't she look amazing?
On June 29, the girls of The Hunger Games, Jennifer Lawrence, Jena Malone, and Willow Shields attended the opening of The Hunger Games: The Exhibition in New York City's Times Square. The exhibition is an immersive fan experience that includes artifacts from the films, recreations of scenes via life-size projections, and more. It will begin a worldwide tour next year.
Jena is 30, and Jennifer is 24, but they are both wearing much higher necklines than Willow, who just turned 15. Doesn't it seem like she's trying to hide behind Jena here?
What do you guys think of The Hunger Games the Exhibition?!?!
