On Sept. 4, the network will turn the Frisco Memorial Stadium in Frisco, TX, into Cheerleader Headquarters by inviting squads from around the country to participate in a 5-minute choreographed “Hellcats” dance.

The goal: To set a new record for “Largest Cheerleading Dance” at a single venue.

The CW is partnering with the online cheerleading network Cheer Channel to rally the squads and get them trained for a five-minute synchronized performance of a cheer from the show.

As an added incentive, the network is awarding $4,000 to the squad who brings the most participants.

It looks like the network will have no problem making its goal: The current record is 297, and more than 2400 have RSVP’d so far. READ MORE

TVGuide.com: Who do you play in Camp Rock 2?
Chloe Bridges: I play Dana, the daughter of the owner of the rival camp [Camp Star]. The cool thing about Dana is she is just real and raw and honest and uninhibited — she is definitely an empowered female. She ends up liking Nate (Nick Jonas) and Nate likes her and they have a little romance. She actually approaches him, flirts with him first, which is I think is awesome.

5 reasons adults should watch Camp Rock 2

TVGuide.com: Tell me about his song to Dana, “Introducing Me.”
Bridges: That was so much fun to shoot. I was actually nervous going in because it was our very first day of work, my very first day on the set. It was a scene toward the end of the movie, so I didn’t really know what to expect, but it was a lot of fun. I didn’t really have to do much, just smile a lot. It’s a really cute scene and a really cute song.

TVGuide.com: Does Dana butt heads with the other girls?
Bridges: Actually, no, only because she doesn’t really interact with any of the other girls in the movie. They would refer to Dana as Switzerland — she doesn’t get involved in the Camp Rock/Camp Star battle thing.

TVGuide.com: Were you excited to be a part of something so popular?
Bridges: I actually didn’t quite know what I was getting myself into. I had no idea what a phenomenon Camp Rock had become and it blew me away how supportive and passionate the fans are. They would wait outside where we were shooting just to see us drive into work and that blew my mind. I’ve never worked on a movie that has so much hype around it. READ MORE

This is your chance to ask the romantic questions you’ve always had- directly to a Hollywood legend.

Director Rob Reiner and Young actress of “Flipped” Madeline Carroll will be featured on a live video chat this Thursday, Aug 26th at 7pm ET on Facebook. RSVP on Facebook: bitly.com/flippedlivechat

“Flipped” is a movie that explores the return to the simplicity of first love as a teenager along with great family values, in a story that everyone can relate to. It is a perfect introduction to the adolescent war between the sexes.

I say this all the time…once you sign with an agent (that is legit) you have to trust that they are doing what is in your  best interest. Getting auditions for actors, whether they pay or not, take time and effort so the agent probably wouldn’t be doing it without a valid reason.

I suggest you be patient and feel free to approach the agent regarding this if it gets crazy and there are just too many non paying auditions.

Good luck,

“I want to go home,” Thomas Robinson said as he climbed into his mother’s arms, wrapped his tiny body around her torso and nuzzled his head against her neck.

The 8-year-old, who stars with Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman in “The Switch,” was experiencing his first big movie premiere. It was nearing 10 p.m. at Hollywood’s nouveau W Hotel on Monday, where a party was being held to celebrate the film’s release. Well-groomed industry types abounded, sipping martinis, delicately eating shrimp skewers, taking smoke breaks on a dimly lighted patio.

Thomas, meanwhile, smiled meekly and picked at a plate of pigs-in-a-blanket as scores of adults came by to tell him how cute he was. He even received a high-five from costar Patrick Wilson. But when the camera flashes got too relentless, he recoiled. His mom, Rachel, quickly gathered their things and headed for the exit. Read More

A: Putting a pin on the actor means she is on hold. They have pinned her picture on the wall of actors being cast for the episode. It could be that one more producer has to approve her or that they are still matching her with other actors that maybe are playing her parents, let’s say. The bottom line is that your daughter is getting close but she has not officially booked the role yet.

It varies but casting will usually call to book the actor, if it’s going to go through, within a day or two. Since a week has passed, most likely the role is gone.

BTW- it is totally fine to follow up with the agent to see if the role has been booked or if your daughter is still being considered.

Good Luck,

Lorena

Poor little Sally Draper. Her mother is cold and critical, her womanizing father’s moving out of the family home and her beloved grandfather, the only adult who seemed to truly care about her, has just died unexpectedly.

Should it come as any surprise, then, that the adorable tween could go off the deep end in the new season of AMC’s “Mad Men,” which premieres Sunday?

“There will be some shocking moments with Sally,” said 10-year-old Kiernan Shipka, who originated the character and nurtured her along to full-time cast status this season. “Lots of drama.” Read More
