Bloggers Getting Their Jam on With “Gotta Be Me” From Teen Beach 2

By Erin

Everyone, it’s time to get your jam on!  Teen Beach 2″ is creating waves and will be surfacing on the Disney Channel on June 26th! We’re already on our feet and dancing to the beat!  This was all part of the Inside Out Event that I attended earlier this week.”Teen Beach 2″ stars Chrissie Fit and Jordan Fisher attempted to teach 25  of us bloggers the dance to “Gotta Be Me,” one of the hit (and very catchy may I add!) songs from the new movie to celebrate the movie’s June 26, 2015 premiere at 8PM EST on the Disney Channel.

I’m sure you can tell, for those watching, this must have been a very interesting and hilarious sight to see 25 bloggers trying to learn a dance like this! I’m in the 2nd row here, 2nd from the right. From what I can tell here, I’ve at least got the same arm back as both Jordan and Chrissie do! Haha! There were no mirrors in the room, so if you were in the back of the room, it was really hard to see what was going on. We rotated what rows we were in every few minutes so that everyone got a chance to see the moves we *should* be doing.  We all get an A for effort I’d say. 😉

Jordan and Chrissie were both so sweet and patient with us. They really slowed the dance down for us  at 1/8 speed so we could learn it correctly. The dance scenes in the movie are very elaborate and beautiful to watch, but they are not hard to learn. I don’t think we captured that elaborate look for the dance, but we sure did have fun! It was only about 20 minutes or so, but it was a mini workout for sure with all the moving and turning and jumping around. We all had a blast, even if we were crashing into each other or stepping on toes, it was a good laugh. Jordan and Chrissie were very high energy and kept us on our toes the entire time, giving us encouragement to make it our own, and to be ourself and add some attitude to the dance. That IS the name of the song right? “Gotta Be Me” Makes sense…

Follow Along with me at Disney’s Inside Out Red Carpet Event in LA!

By Erin

Hey everyone!!! Guess what??? I’m Going to LA in just a few short days!!!!!! EEK!!! Well…..wait a minute, that doesn’t sound right, I live in LA, well technically closer to Long Beach, but still, It’s LA County. It probably sounds more exciting when all of the other bloggers from out of state say that. 😉 So, I’ll be traveling about 30 miles north of where I am, up the 605, to the 5, then the 101; but you know, in LA traffic that can take anywhere from 1-2 hours!

If you’ve been following along here for a while, you know I’ve been attending the press junkets for the majority of the Disney Movies coming out. Well, Disney has given me an opportunity of a lifetime to attend the Inside Out Event, which is one thing I’ve been wanting to do since I created this blog. To be able to attend press trips and events for anything and everything having to do with Disney, Disneyland, Disney World. You get the idea!

Inside Out I'm Going!

So it has happened! My first press trip (and hopefully not my last!!) with Disney is happening! Disney has us all there for not only the red carpet premiere of Pixar’s Inside Out, but for so much more! Wait until you read what else is in store for myself and 24 other lucky bloggers beginning this coming weekend on Sunday, June 7th! Check out what’s in store below!

First I will be attending a press junket for Inside Out, which is separate from this event, but as soon as that is over, I will be wasting no time and jumping right on over from that and into the fun which is starting at the CBS Television Studios for a live taping of Celebrity Family Feud. We have not gotten any word of who the celebrity families will be, but I do know that the survey does say that it will be hosted by the highly popular  and beloved Emmy Award-winning talk show host Steve Harvey! Celebrity Family Feud will be pitting celebrities against each other in a contest to name the most popular responses to a survey-type question posed to 100 people. Who doesn’t LOVE Family Feud! This was one of my favorite game shows to watch (and still IS) as a kid!

You can follow along with us on this part of the trip using #ABCTVEvent and #CelebrityFamilyFeud and will be airing June 21st 8/7C.

Our next fun-filled day has us arriving bright and early at the Walt Disney Studios lot for breakfast and then we will be viewing the Phineas and Ferb episode “The Last Day of Summer” followed by a Q & A session with the Creators and Executive Producers Dan Povenmire  & Jeff “Swampy” Marsh. Following this, we will enjoy a fun summer picnic with Dan, Swampy and Phineas & Ferb themselves! What a way to start the day! Many photos will be taken for sure.

Last Day of Summer

You can follow along with us on this part of the trip using #PhineasAndFerbEvent and will be airing June 12th at 9pm ET/PT on Disney XD.
