The story is set at Camp Rock, the acclaimed summer workshop that launched the music careers of many including the hugely popular Connect 3. Aspiring singer-songwriter Mitchie Torres, a teen from a working class family, longs to be part of it and is thrilled when her mother, a caterer, takes a job as the camp cook so Mitchie can attend camp for a discounted tuition while helping in the kitchen.
On her first day at camp, Mitchie is intimidated by the privileged kids and feels as if she doesn’t fit in anywhere. She is befriended by Caitlyn, a down-to-earth girl who wants to be a music producer, and quickly dazzled by the camp’s veteran members, the catty clique led by diva Tess Tyler and her friends Peggy and Ella. Mitchie even tries to impress the trio with the tale of her mother being a high-ranking executive at Hot Tunes TV and agrees to join their group as back-up singer. All the while, she keeps quiet the fact that she’s also working in the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Connect 3’s summer concert tour is canceled and lead singer Shane Gray is forced to return to Camp Rock by his band mates, Jason and Nate. They’re hoping Shane can get his ego in check by leading a few camp classes and rediscovering his passion for music. Although Shane’s displeasure is obvious at first, he is eventually inspired by the campers’ enthusiasm for music. When he hears a voice singing a song that deeply affects him, he sets out to find the girl behind the beautiful voice.
The ever-so-popular Jonas Brother’s first movie Camp Rock premieres tonight on Disney Channel at 8p! I have a feeling that Nick, Kevin and Joe are going to start the new franchise that will replace High School Musical on that channel, now that HSM is going to the big screen.
BTW in case you miss Camp Rock tonight, it will be replaying on Disney Channel all weekend. And if you like the music you can download the soundtrack on iTunes.

This is a must for every U2 fan!!! Universal announced that they are re-issuing and re-mastering their first 3 albums Boy, October and War on July 22nd!
Each album will be released in physical and digital formats; as a standard single disc, a deluxe double version including a disc of b-sides, live tracks and rarities, and an LP version pressed on 180gm virgin vinyl
The packaging on all three titles has been restored and expanded, with new liner notes for each record, previously unseen photos and full lyrics.
I am not even close to the hugest U2 fan, but I am going to run out and by the 3 albums when they come out next month! Sunday Bloody Sunday is one of the best songs and I can't wait to hear it remastered!!!

TBS revives Match Game! |

Sarah Silverman and Niecy Nash are two of the celebs on TBS's Match Game panel. The pilot was shot this week and those two funny ladies were joined by Norm MacDonald, Super Dave Osborne, Scott Thompson and Rashida Jones according to The Hollywood Reporter. Former-Saturday Night Live comedian Andrew Daly is the new Gene Rayburn! While Match Game has not been picked up by TBS just yet, I think it will be! I can't wait to see this show back on the small screen. Shame that Brett Somers and Charles Nelson Reilly are no longer around to be part of the show.

Twin baby red panda |

Tai and Pip were born on May 26th at the Edmonton Valley Zoo in Canada on May 26th and they are just the cutest things! Red Pandas are rare, in fact only 4 cubs were born in North America last year and the zoo is doing all it can to ensure that they have a long life.
The twins were removed shortly after birth when the mother began aggressively holding and grooming one of the babies endangering its life. To ensure their survival, the babies will be hand raised by Sandy Heiliker, the Valley Zoo’s Animal Health Technologist. She will be responsible for the 24/7 care of the babies, in conjunction with the Valley Zoo’s veterinarian Dr. Milton Ness. Sandy was responsible for the care of the twins born in 2007, who have become robust young pandas.
I think I am going to have to go to Edmonton to see those two little cuties!!!
