Skai is not the only one paying tribute to Cameron Boyce recently. Adam Sandler shared his own tribute just this week, calling Boyce a “superstar.” Adam Sandler shared his tribute on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, in which he explained that he and Boyce worked on the movie Grown Ups together, and had plans to work on another upcoming movie Hubie Halloween. After the sudden passing of Cameron Boyce, the movie Hubie Halloween will now be made as a dedication to Cameron.
Earlier this year the entire cast of Jessie paid tribute to their lost star, during which Skai Jackson said,
“He was younger than me and he would teach me something every day. He really is an old soul and he taught me so much,”
You can see their close bond in her words, its clear to see why her performance on DWTS touched so many fans. You can see the entire fan tribute here.
