“When I met her, I started crying.

I had this whole thing going on, and then she private messaged me on Twitter.”

The young actress told DeGeneres she’d never been to a sleepover before, though Ziegler quickly changed that.

“She was like Do you want to come over?'

and I was like Sure!'

“We all had to get rushed out of her apartment building.

I’m crying because I’m like My first sleepover’s ruined!'

So, yeah, we’ve been through a lot.”
