She had to have been hired for her looks or for not asking for a lot of money, because I genuinely don't understand how she was cast any other way. Her acting makes Sara seem more like an alien pretending to be human instead of an actual human being. The way she carries herself is so weird, and anytime she has a scene with any other actor, it's absolutely ridiculous. The difference in acting ability is undeniable. Does she have connections or something? I don't believe any people saw her audition tape and said "Oh she's very good, let's hire her". The way she speaks is odd, as well.

Keegan has one facial expression at most, and he says his lines like he's reading them off cue card held up by someone standing behind the director. He's a terrible actor.

But even then, Dre Davis makes people like Keegan and Shay Mitchell look Emmy-worthy and Golden Globe-worthy in comparison.

How is it that PLL can hire such talented actors such as Troian Bellisario, Janel Parrish, Sasha Pieterse, and Drew Van Acker... yet also hire such awful actors as Keegan and Dre?
