Cecelia "CeCe" Jones[1] is one of the two lead female characters in the TV series, Shake It Up. She spends her time dancing in dance competitions, competing against others and having slumber parties. CeCe is very unpredictable and energetic, described as "a daring wild child who is uncontrollable, funky, and fun" on the school blog ("Wild It Up"). She also has dyslexia ("Add It Up"). She is portrayed by Bella Thorne.
CeCe is an upbeat, uncontrollable girl, brutally honest, bright, and yet somewhat ditzy, but she sometimes can care about her best friend. She's street-smart rather than book-smart, unlike her best friend, Rocky. Initially, she performs poorly in school partially because of dyslexia, but also in part because of her "trouble-making" behavior. However, she gradually improves academically as the series progresses. CeCe is fearless and outgoing and is constantly getting into trouble. Despite her initially failing her audition due to stage fright, she eventually earned a spot as a background dancer on Shake It Up, Chicago!.
