Cameron was born in Seattle, Washington on January 15, 1996[4] as Chloe Celeste Hosterman[1] to Philip Alan Hosterman[5] and Bonnie Wallace.[6] She has one older sister, Claire Hosterman, who was born in 1989.

When Cameron was fourteen she moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting professionally. There she attended Burbank High School and sang in their National Championship Show Choir.[4]

Since 2013, Cameron has starred in the dual lead role of Liv and Maddie in the Disney Channel original series Liv and Maddie. The preview of the series began showing on July 19, 2013 (2013-07-19).[8] The show premiered on September 15, 2013 (2013-09-15).[9] The pilot episode gained 5.8, which was the most-watched in Total Viewers in two and a half years – since November 7, 2010 (Shake It Up!).[10] In the episode Twin-A-Rooney, Liv shows Maddie a clip from the Sing It Loud! finale in which Liv's character sings a cover of "On Top of the World" by Imagine Dragons. A full version of the song was recorded by Cameron and was released by Disney as a single on August 27, 2013. She also starred in Cloud 9 with Luke Benward, which premiered on January 17, 2014.

Personal life

Cameron stated that she was bullied through her entire school experience, starting in 5th grade to the end of high school.

I fully immured myself".[11] Dove's father died, when she was just fifteen.
