In 2020, she performed with [[Sean Lew]] as duet on Justin Bieber's new music video ''That's What Love Is (CHANGES: The Movement)''. Kaycee co-choreographed with Sean two episodes of Radio Disney's new series ''On the One'' and performed it with some friends, before regarding her roller coaster theory she got her cooler by fractoring her ankle, which means at least 3-4 months off for a professional dancer. She didn't missed much due coronavirus quarantine, but it forced her limping up and down at home and the garden like a tiger in her cage. She used the time for clear political statements against rassism, violence and unreasonal behavior in the pandamic. Kaycee discribed the last year as really tough for her with a lot of private problems too. However, the up-swing came from her regular client Disney by putting her in the superstar showcase lineup for ''Radio Disney Presents ARDYs Summer Playlist'' together with Katy Perry, BTS, Dua Lipa, Bebe Rexha, Meghan Trainor, Sofia Carson, Alessia Cara, Ally Brooke, Asher Angel, Loren Gray, Keedron Bryant, Sia, Thriii (the R&B group comprised of sisters China Anne McClain, Sierra McClain and Lauryn McClain), Sabrina Carpenter, Now United, [[Maddie Ziegler]], [[Mackenzie Ziegler]], Kylie Cantrall, Anne-Marie, Brent Rivera, Meg Donnelly, Echosmith, Max & Harvey, Sarah Jeffery, Peyton Elizabeth Lee, Sofia Wylie, Issac Ryan Brown, Sky Katz, Alex Aiono, Lindsay Ell, Blanco Brown!
