Getting ready for a role
Olson's singing as Joanna in Love Actually was so polished that director Richard Curtis feared audiences would think a ten-year-old was lip-synching, so the team trained her to sound less perfect and added inhalation sounds to the track.
Big break
In 2010, Olson landed the part of Marceline the Vampire Queen on the Cartoon Network show Adventure Time. She first read for Princess Bubblegum at the audition, and reportedly often dressed like Marceline while recording her lines.
