Maybe I should make this a new weekly kind of thing… a sort of interesting videos of the week post. I dunno, but there were a few things I saw today and over the past few days that I wanted to share, this first one being the most important.

Tiffany Thornton did an interview where che confirms that “So Random!” hasn’t been renewed for a new season, as we’ve suspected for a while, and she recounts some fond memories from SWAC and SR.

Tiff’s obviously gonna be busy with the baby for a while, but I hope you’ll join me in demanding that Disney cast Allisyn and Audrey in a new series immediately.

Also on the subject, here’s a great video of Tiffany and Chris’s Wedding with an introduction from Demi Lovato.

I had posted this one on the Debby forum earlier in the week. Popstar seems to enjoy invading Debby Ryan’s personal space. LOL

Finally, here’s one of Arwin’s favorite videos of Disney XD’s Olivia Holt and Kelli Berglund doing their best Katniss imitations.

A very happy birthday and a sweet 16 to Allisyn Ashley Arm who turns 16 today.

As I’m sure you’re remember, Allisyn’s BFF Audrey Whitby also turned 16 this month.

The two some celebrated with a joint birthday party this past Saturday.

Oh, did I forget to mention that it was a pool party? xD

The So Random boys were there of course.

As were a bunch of other disney stars including Billy Unger from Lab Rats.

Peyton List from Jessie.

And Kenton Duty from Shake it Up.

It sure was nice of Allisyn to share all these pics on her twitter. You can also see the full set by clicking on any picture above.

As I had mention in my post yesterday, Tiffany Thornton hosted a special concert at the Roxy in LA on April 22nd 2012.

It was a fantastic event overall, although I have to say that the turn out was disapointing as you can see from the crowd in front of the Roxy aprox. 30 minutes before showtime.

Tiffany herself performed three songs, “Man Up,” “I Am Me Because of You,” and “Sure Feels Like Love” (Watch the videos Here).

There was a meet and greet with Tiffany and some of the other performers at the begining of the show, but due to timing issues photos were not allowed durring the meet and greet. However, Tiff did sign one of her new “Beloved” shirts for me.

I caught up with her at the end of the show to ask her about the new tattoo on her wrist. It’s her husband’s name, and he has her name and face on his arm! As I thanked her and turned to leave she said to me “Hey, you’re not leaving without taking a picture with me.” to which I managed to stammer a “oh, sure.” Unfortunately, the girl working my camera didn’t quite know what she was doing and she caught me just as I was about to say something. Oh well.

Also in attendance were several of her So Random castmates: Matthew Scott Montgomery, Audrey Whitby, and Allisyn Ashley Arm.

Allisyn and Audrey were quite the popular pair, with several Disney/Teen fansites asking for photos and interviews.

I’ve saw Allisyn and Matthew last year at the D23 Expo but it was cool to finally meet Audrey and get a pic with both girls.

Another unexpected guest was Cassie Scerbo from ABC Family’s Make It or Break It whom is aparently very good friends with Tiffany.

This was my first time seeing Savvy & Mandy perform.

I was quite impressed. And Savvy is pretty cute too.

Savannah Outen is also very pretty. Especially in that dress.

I hadn’t heard her before, and I was quite impressed.

And I’ve never watched Twilight, so I didn’t really know who Booboo Stewart was, but the band 5-L was pretty good, and his sister Fivel has some serious dance moves. (Did you watch the videos?)

There are a lot more of my photos (50+) from the show in the image gallery. Be sure to click on any photo above to see the full set.

So I never realized that Allisyn was such an artist.

She had an art show in LA last month…

…complete with red carpet.

Which showed off a lot of her work.

And there was a lot of it!

Here’s one for Arwin, made with shotgun shells!

And here’s a flower made of razor blades.

So yeah… I was quite impressed.

You’ll find a few more pics of the event from her twitter in the gallery – just click any image above.

So, Allisyn Ashley Arm posted a whole bunch of pics from Sierra A. McClain’s birthday party on her twitter. It looks like half the channel was there, including Allisyn’s BFF and So Random costar Audrey Whitby, Jessie‘s Peyton List, ANT Farm‘s Stefanie Scott, the birthday girl’s sister China Anne McClain, Disney XD’s Kelli Berglund, and Bella Thorne’s BFF Pia Mia.

Okay, so I wanted to give an update on some of the things we’ve been working on here at Disney Channel Fans. But I also know that if I don’t post any pics that no one would read this. So enjoy a few twitter pics of So Random‘s Allisyn Ashley Arm and Audrey Whitby at Disneyland.

Which reminds me, I hope everyone watched Audrey on Sunday’s new Autin and Ally. But that’s another story.

Anyway, before I get too distracted, I wanted to tell you all that we’ve been making some changes to the site on the back end. We launched the updated version or Friday and we’ve already seen both a significant improvement in site speed and an uptick in traffic. Of course, you don’t get something for nothing and I have identified a few bugs that have popped up including some issues with comments not always showing up as expected. If you notice any other issues while on the site please send me an email greg [at] dcfans.tv or leave a comment on this post.

And as an advance thank you for your help, here’s a leggy pic of the girls. xD

So in summary, click the pics for more of Allisyn and Audrey’s Disneyland adventure, and email or comment with any site issues you find. Thanks!

Alright, now this is fun. This is my first split post between both main blogs, DC Fans and Nick Girls. But first, some background.

I was at the LA County fair day before yesterday (9/17/11) to see the lovely and talented Victoria Justice in concert. But this post isn’t about Vic, you need to head over to Nick Girls Blog for that story.

As you can see, Roshon Fegan was there too. And the girls smaped him good as soon as they spoted him!

He and Allisyn Ashley Arm were there in support of opening act “Kicking Daisies.” They even introduced them on stage!

Not the best pic I’m afraid, but the lighting was terible. I did get some good video of “Kicking Daisies” though.

I can see why Allisyn likes them so much, they’re quite talented kids.

Oh, and Shane Harper (Spencer from Good Luck Charlie) was there doing the singing thing too earlier in the day over at the Coke stage.

… I just thought I’d mention that. Not that any of you care. xD

Friday was a pretty good day. The cast of So Random including Tiffany Thornton, Sterling Knight, Doug Brochou,  Allisyn Ashley Arm, Shayne Topp, Matthew Scott Montgomery, and Damien Haas.

Doesn’t Tiff look pretty? (As always. xD )

Missing where Brandon Smith and Audrey Whitby. I really wanted to meet her. Oh well. I was able to finish my existing Sonny with a Chance autograph though – I just needed Sterling and Doug. =]

I also got my So Random Main cast autographs…

… and another of the “new” Randoms.

I had also wanted to see the Lemonade Mouth cast, Hayley Kiyoko in particular, but they cut the line before I got there. Damn.

You can click any pic for a larger version (as usual) and be sure to visit SoCal Disney on Monday for more in-depth analysis of the D23 Expo (not just DC) and follow @socaldisney on twitter for live news from the Expo floor.

I don’t talk much about Allisyn Ashley Arm (or as I like to call her, Tipple A) but I really liked her new twitter default pic.

But then, as I started looking at her twitter I noticed something.

Her and her new So Random cast mate Audrey Whitby have a lot of pics together.

… and it’s both Allisyn and Audrey sharing all of these with us.

I wonder if they were friends before she joined the cast, or if they just sort of met on set and got along?

I know Allisyn is 15, and I’m guessing Audrey is right in that age range too.

Oh, and here’s a pic of Allisyn w/ my gurl Tiffany Thornton. <3

Click any pic to enlarge, as usual. =]

Are you ready to get So Random?

Disney’s new Sonny with a Chance spinoff series So Random is set to premiere next week! As I mentioned before, the new series focuses entirely on the comedy with pretty much no connection to Sonny‘s plot what so ever. Still, it’s got a good cast (<3 U Tiff) and it’s pretty well written. As you may recall, I went to the filming for the 5th episode (Guest staring my love Selena Gomez) and while a few sketches fell flat it was pretty damn funny overall. Plus Demi said to watch it in her live chat on Friday, so all you Demi lovers better do what she says.

Disney’s official press releases follow…
