Maddie Baillio gained recognition for her turn as Tracy Turnblad in the 2016 televised special ‘Hairspray Live!’. The attention she gained from playing best friend to Ariana Grande’s Penny Pingleton was parlayed into parts on Netflix’ ‘Dumplin’ and the remake of ”Cinderella’ starring Camila Cabello. However, during the latter production, Maddie realized she needed to work on her health, as she was having trouble making it through a dance routine because of her poor health.
With that in mind, she returned to her hometown of Texas at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and decided to make a change. It became a starting point for Maddie to work on her wellness journey and it certainly was time well spent, as she revealed she lost 150 pounds! By starting out with a 30-minute walk one a day to changing her diet to plant-based, Maddie made the transformation over two years.
