Personal Life
Luna is an ally of the LGBTQ+ community, and in 2018, she teamed up with GLAAD (formerly known as the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) to "help people struggling with coming out of the closet." In a 2017 essay for "POPSUGAR," Blaise wrote about her heritage, stating, "My cultural background has had a profound effect in shaping who I am, particularly my Mexican side. My mom has brown skin and she is very proud to be Latina. Everything she does, from the way she dresses to the way she dances, projects her strong sense of identity. I have inherited many of those traits from my mother, from my confidence and natural sense of rhythm and features to my curvy body type. I attribute all these strong and beautiful qualities to the Latina that flows in my blood."

Blaise won a Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a TV Series – Recurring Young Actress (14 – 21) for "Fresh Off the Boat" in 2016. That year the series also earned her a Young Entertainer Award nomination for Best Recurring Young Actress 13-15 – Television Series.
