Singer and actor, former Vogue cover star and famously Princess Jasmine in Disney’s live-action Aladdin, multihyphenate Naomi Scott knows the art of performance. In this Vogue Visionaries class, she shares the lessons learnt during her career. Split into five chapters, Scott covers her first steps into the industry, how to ace an audition, her defining roles, how to handle critics, and the advice she would give her younger self.

Scott’s is the first of eight classes from British Vogue and YouTube’s new Vogue Visionaries series, which will see experts from the worlds of fashion, beauty, music, and more – from Alexa Chung and Sam McKnight to Celeste and Patricia Bright – impart their words of wisdom and advice on how to succeed in their chosen field.

For those looking to break into acting, Naomi Scott’s class is full of insightful anecdotes and invaluable tips for aspiring performers. From her days spent singing in the church choir to her first audition (for a Dutch insurance commercial), Scott reveals how to get noticed, the skills needed to successfully self-tape, and how to deal with imposter syndrome. She tackles the topic of finding the confidence to speak up when things don’t feel right, and her rules for maintaining a healthy relationship with social media (firstly, no phones in the bedroom). The most important takeaway? “Success isn’t what you do, but who you are”, Scott says. “Always be curious and keep learning, don’t shy away from the things you’re not good at – lean into them.”
