DISNEY’S DEMI LOVATO TO PERFORM AT BALLOON FESTIVAL NEWEST TEEN SENSATION FOLLOWS IN JONAS BROTHERS FOOTSTEPSREADINGTON, NJ --- There’s a lot more than balloons being launched at the Quick Chek New Jersey Festival of Ballooning. Like the careers of the next teen singing sensation.
Disney’s Demi Lovato, who is starring with the Jonas Brothers in the Disney Channel Original Movie “Camp Rock” premiering June 20, will perform live in concert at the 26th annual Quick Chek New Jersey Festival of Ballooning at Solberg Airport in Readington on Saturday, July 26 at 1:00 p.m. Lovato’s concert is presented by Fing’rs Edge, a leading supplier of decorative short-length, faux fingernails and nail art, and in association with AM 1560 Radio Disney.
“To keep the Festival fresh and exciting for our ever-growing legion of young balloonatics, we’ve once again added live concerts geared especially for our teenage audience,” said Festival Executive Producer Howard Freeman. “Last year thousands come out to see and meet the Jonas Brothers – yes, the Jonas Brothers – who, as every girl in America knows, are now the hottest musical act on the planet. This is a great opportunity to see Demi Lovato as she rises to superstardom and who Disney expects to be the next Hannah Montana.”
“Camp Rock” stars the Jonas Brothers and introduces 15-year-old Demi Lovato in her first lead film role. Lovato plays Mitchie Torres, an immensely talented yet insecure singer who must learn to step into the spotlight and overcome her fears. Her character desperately wants to spend her summer at prestigious Camp Rock, but she can only attend if she helps out in the camp kitchen. When a hot-tempered rock star played by Joe Jonas overhears her sing, he sets out to find the girl behind the voice in this music-filled movie.
“Camp Rock” premiers June 20 on the Disney Channel with an audio simulcast on Radio Disney. “Camp Rock” also airs on June 21 on the ABC Television Network and again on ABC Family on June 22.
Lovato currently stars as Charlotte in the Disney Channel short-form series “As The Bell Rings.” She is also known for her role as Angela on “Barney and Friends,” a role she played for two years alongside her best friend Selena Gomez of Disney Channel’s “Wizards of Waverly Place.” Demi currently has two songs out: “That’s How You Know” and “This Is Me” with Joe Jonas.
Demi can also been seen on tour with the Jonas Brothers and in her upcoming new TV show, “Mollywood.”
