Taylor Delaney Hickson (born 11 December 1997) is a Canadian actress and singer-songwriter. Raised in Kelowna, British Columbia, Hickson began singing at talent shows at the age of 11. After graduating from high school, she was granted an acting audition with a casting agent, who signed her the same day. Following a minor part in the movie Blackway, Hickson had another minor part in the 2016 feature Deadpool. In addition to several subsequent parts in films, she later starred in the television series Aftermath. She currently stars as Raelle Collar in the Freeform series Motherland: Fort Salem. In December 2016, while filming Ghostland, Hickson was told to bang her fists against a glass window, which she was told was safe to do. The window then shattered and she fell on the glass, cutting the left side of her face. The wound required 70 stitches, which left her with permanent scarring.
