Did no one think to fact-check with Siri ? [ THR ]

To kick off this new phase in her career, Breslin plays her first official teenage role in this week’s music-themed Janie Jones , starring (and performing her own vocals) as a capable young girl forced on a road trip with the rock star father she never knew.
