Description

This week on The Pre-Game, actor Jaylen Barron pulls up for an unfiltered conversation about life in the spotlight and behind the scenes. From hilarious improv moments to the emotional toll of carrying intense roles, Jaylen opens up about what it really means to be a Black woman taking up space in Hollywood. We dive into her recent role in the Aaron Hernandez series and how leading with empathy helped her portray a character wrapped in real-life pain. Plus, we get into the pressure to “do all the things” in relationships—and why she’s done performing for love. Because real love? It sees your worth without an audition.
