On Saturday September 22nd 2012, Jennette McCurdy went to see Cirque Du Soleil’s “Iris” at the Dolby Theatre in LA, and she invited her fans to join her…
Although I gotta say, Jennette certanly didn’t miss with her Alice in Wonderland Scarlett from Iris inspired outfit.
You see what I’m talking about there? 😉
In short, it was a fantastic evening and I hope you all enjoyed my little “tour” if you will of the day’s festivities. You can click here or on any of my watermarked inages above to see all of my orginal photos in the gallery.

As I had recently mentioned, I went to see Cher Lloyd and Bridgit Mendler at the LA County Fair this past Saturday September 15th 2012. I went primarily to see Bridgit, but Cher put on a great show as well. She sang a total of seven songs, including one cover and six songs from her UK album. I’m not terribly familiar with the British songstress, but I like her single “Want U Back” and I plan on checking out her US Album Sticks & Stones when it drops next month.
Bridgit Mendler has been doing a lot of promotion for her upcoming album Hello My Name Is… including that special appearance at Extrapalooza, and then this past Saturday her first ever public concert in the LA area with Cher Lloyd at the LA County Fair in Pomona.
She performed ten songs from the new CD, including the single “Ready or Not”, plus another two covers and “Somebody” from Lemonade Mouth.
Well, Saturday 9/15/12 was certainly a fun day! The fabulous Jasmine V and her brother Jream Andrew came to town for a free concert and meet and greet sponsored by AT&T’s anti-txting-while-driving campaign#itcanwait.
As you can see, I got to meet her again. She’s clearly gotten even prettier. I won’t comment on myself. xD Oh, and this time I got an autograph too. That was cool. 🙂
Her and her brother did a few songs for us. She pulled a girl on stage to do the dance for Werk with her and, well, she did a great job. I was shocked just how in sync they were!
Extra, which is a Warner Bros. production, celebrated their 19th season with a party called “Extrapalooza.”
This event was held at The Grove LA on Monday 9/10/12 and featured several Disney stars.
Disney Channel’s Bridgit Mendler was there to perform her new single “Ready or Not.”
She also did a rare public meet and greet, and I was able to get a new autograph. 🙂
Also on hand earlier on the day was Olivia Holt from Disney XD’s Kickin’ It.
And she signed these really cool new Kickin’ It posters.
China Anne McClain from A.N.T. Farm was there as well.
She actually had both standard headshots and A.N.T. Farm posters to sign. I picked the headshot as you can see.
There were a number of other people there as well, including Rob Paulsen. He voiced Raphael in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series and he now voices Donatello in the forthcoming Nick reboot of the franchise.
I also got to see Wayne Brady as he was interviewed by Maria Menounos.
Plus I got to see the great George Lopez briefly as they filmed the conclusion to the festivities with host Mario Lopez and the Grove’s owner Rick Caruso.
There are two separate image galleries linked from this post, one of Bridgit’s performance and one of everything else.
Last week was Paul Frank Fashion’s Night Out in LA.
They had even recruited celebrity hosts Debby Ryan and Zendaya for the event.
Even more important, they were nice enough to put me on the guest list.
They threw a really great party.
My candids didn’t come out very well, but you get the idea.
Disney girl Sammi Hanratty was there too, as you can see.
As was Nick’s Ashley Argota (but we already covered that on the Nick blog.)
Anyway, you can see the rest of my photos from the party in the gallery, just click on any picture above except Ashley’s picture. That picture links to her seperate set.
This will be my last post covering the events of the Kids Help Children benefit at the Anaheim Hilton, and I wanted to take a moment to share all of my “red carpet” interviews in one place.

And just in case you’ve missed any of my previous coverage, here’s a brief recap…
We had a number of great musical acts perform at the Kids Help Children Benefit for CHOC, Children’s Hospital of Orange County.
Ashlee Keating (twitter) is like… really pretty. As I told her:
And… in retrospect, maybe I crossed the line a little bit. Most inapropriate interview ever? LOL
Well, she was rather impressive on stage as well. I’ll leave it at that.
Austin Anderson of Victorious brough his entire band with him!
And I gotta say, he has a commanding stage presence.
I was also very impressed by Jamie Dee Hart (twitter)
She wasn’t actually scheguled to perform, as she was there doing sound for the event, but I think she did a great job. As I told her. 🙂
She’s also kind of cute. I didn’t tell her that though… maybe I should have. xD
You can see all of my pictures from the event in the gallery, as I mentioned before, and I’ve been posting about some of the other people I saw and spoke with on the DC Fans and Nick Girls blogs.
