Zoey 101 star Victoria Justice is sharing new music with her fans via her social media accounts. Justice, 30, posted a video of herself floating in a pool in a black and white swimsuit, while her song ‘Only A Stranger’ played. “#SentimentalGirlSummer is in full swing! I wrote this song for all my hopeful romantics out there. I hope you soak in all the summer vibes and keep streaming #OnlyAStranger this weekend 🌞💓,” she captioned the Instagram post. Here’s how Justice has the time, energy, and talent to succeed at so many different artistic endeavors.

1. Her Beauty Hacks

---

Justice has a few tricks up her sleeve when it comes to beauty know-how. "When I don't look my best, I detox with raw foods and lots of water,” she says. “It makes me feel better. I wash off my makeup every night before bed. It's my number-one rule for good skin… I haven't found anything better than sleep and a good concealer. I swear by Clé de Peau Beauté. My mom didn't drink, smoke or tan while growing up, and she looks great. I'm following her plan."

2. Animal Prints

Justice has a very specific sense of style. "I really love animal prints when it comes to fashion, and I thought it would be really cool to infuse them into the collection, so I did some bold and subtle designs with them in mind,” she says of her unique party invite collaboration with Tiny Prints. "Even though I didn't have a formal graduation, (I was tutored on set) I just thought, ‘it's a huge accomplishment and it should be announced in style’."

3. Singing Career

Justice is planning on releasing more music in 2023. “I am really looking forward to releasing a lot more music this year,” she says. “I’m looking forward to getting back in the studio. I have a couple of film projects that are in the works and lined up, but I can’t talk about them yet. But yeah, there are two other projects that I’m really excited about. I love what I do. I’m excited to keep singing, to keep writing music, and to keep challenging myself and playing characters that push me and are exciting, fun stories to tell.”

4. Independent Cinema

Justice loved being part of psychological thriller The Tutor. “I love the stories that are being told in independent films,” she says. “It feels like nowadays that a lot of them are more character-based, human stories. Those are the movies that I love to watch. It’s not every day that you get to come across a script like this and you get to work with people as talented as this whole cast and crew. It was such a pleasure to work on this one.”

5. Love of Billy Joel

Justice pays homage to Billy Joel with the art for her song ‘Only A Stranger’, which the legendary musician acknowledged. “My mom introduced me to Billy Joel at a young age, and we’ve always bonded over our love for him and his music,” she says. “When I wrote ‘Only A Stranger,’ I felt like it was only right to honor one of my favorite albums ever. It just seemed to really work creatively for the song. The fact that [Joel] posted about it, acknowledged it, and knows that I exist is the craziest thing ever.”
