Introducing Dove Cameron
Disney Channel is really getting behind actress Dove Cameron. Not only did she have a song on the Shake it Up I <3 Dance soundtrack but she's filming the new DCOM Cloud 9 and is the lead in the newly announced series Liv & Maddie!
The story of “Cloud 9? follows Kayla, a prima donna snowboarder who was just unceremoniously dropped from her team and forced to train with Will, a former snowboarding champion who’s struggling after a career-ending wipe-out. A video capturing it went viral, branding him an “epic fail” on the Internet. Now, as Kayla trains with Will to redeem her stature, Will creates a training regimen that tests whether she’s really committed to rise to the challenge of professional competition. Meanwhile, Kayla must somehow maneuver to inspire Will to overcome his biggest obstacle — self-doubt.

See and read more about the show on the DC Fans Blog.
Anaheim Wonder-Con 2013
Our very own Webmaster Greg was also on hand at Anaheim Wonder-Con. Wonder-Con featured an exhibit hall of over 700 exhibitors including Steven Silver - the lead character designer for Kim Possible! He also got to meet Kim Possible herself, sort of.

I know why most people look at my blog, and that's for the hot girls in skimpy outfits. I used to try and kid myself about that fact, but I know it to be true and I've learned to embrace it. But please, allow me a moment just this once to talk a little bit about myself, my other projects, and the future of this blog.
This site had been growing at a tremendous rate these past few months. Since the start of the year I've upgraded servers for the gallery twice and I've upgraded servers for the main forum three times. And let me tell you something, that takes a lot of time not to mention quite a bit of cash upfront. I work about 50 - 60 hours a week at not much over minimum wage. I'm not complaining, but that's just barely enough to cover my college loan payments plus room and board.
I've always viewed this site as a hobby (just look at my banners!). A hobby that's gotten considerably more expensive to maintain at a time when I'm even less able to pull money from my pocket for it. So in order to keep this site alive it has to pay for itself. And to make things worse, I lost a major advertiser last week and I'm having a hell of a time getting my payments from another. I'm sorry that the Linkbucks is annoying, but it's replacing the old full page ads and I need to keep it while I look for new revenue streams. It's only one add to click from the new post over to the gallery. All you have to do is wait ten seconds and then click the continue button in the top right corner. And there are no ads at all on the gallery site. Is ONE ad really asking all that much?
BTW, if anyone is interested in advertising on DC Fans or any of my other sites, that can be worked out on a case by case basis. You can reach me by email: greg [at] dcfans [dot] tv
---------------------------------
I would also like to take a moment to discuss several of the new projects I have been working on, including my new Nickelodeon Girls Blog. I've posted quite a bit about my love Ariana Grande on here in the past, but I recently decided that it would be more appropriate to spin off the Nick discussions to it's own site. That way I don't bother the Disney fans with Nick news and I also feel free to post more Nick stuff without "intruding" on polite members that don't really care.
If you like this blog and miss the Nick girls, then you'll love NickelodeonGirls.com. If not, well... I won't bother you again. But you still might still wanna check out the the site just for the "Victorious Girls Upskirts" post. ;)
Debby's new show Jessie has just started production in Hollywood and they will be filming their first episode this week! We still don't know that much about the show, but as they start filming we should start getting more details, photos, and videos. Plus she already has legions of fans, so it just seemed like an appropriate time to put together a new Debby fan community. Check it out!
And finally, one of my best friends in the world and SWAC Forum mod, Rissa, and I are starting another new blog. Our new site, Disney and Nick will be written primarily from the female perspective and will include news and updates on Disney and Nick shows, "respectful" comments about the girls, and at least a few posts about how hot the guys are. I'm gonna try to skip over the last category. xD But if you're into that sort of thing, or just want to know more about the shows, it's worth a look! We just started on it a few days ago so there's not much there yet but there will be soon. DisneyAndNick.com.
Last night I went to see Victoria Justice and the cast of Victorious perform for the Victorious WalMart Soundcheck Concert in LA at the historic Avalon Theater at Hollywood and Vine. Yay for run on sentences!
Because they were filming it, I figured they'd have pretty tight security and not let cameras in. I mean, camera flashes are pretty disruptive. So I only brought my phone. But no, they didn't search us at all. Damn.
Anyway, Vic did five separate songs, and she sang three of them twice (for the cameras).
I ended up being just left of center, second row. Pretty damn good I thought. Between the sets, Victoria ran across the front and she touched my hand. <3
One of the songs she did was a duet with Leon Thomas called "Song For You."
The whole cast sang "I Want You Back," originally performed by the Jackson 5.

My girl Ariana Grande was like five feet away from me at one point. <3
Of course, she hugged me last year, so I don't think there's getting any closer than that.
Liz Gillies was looking great too. That little black dress was to die for.
Liz also ran across the front like Vic did, but she skipped my hand.
The professional video from the event should be released later this year when the Victorious Soundtrack is released. Until then, you can find a few more vids on my youtube.

And as always, click any photo to see the full set. Despite not having my good camera, I was still close enough to get some nice shots. ;)
Alright, we're back up and running now. Our traffic here at DC Fans has been off the charts these past couple weeks and it's been a real challenge just to keep up, not to mention trying to add new content. With that in mind, I am proud to present the professional pics from the Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger Tides Premiere at Disneyland.
As I previously mentioned, my girl Ashley Tisdale was looking amazing in red.
And Vanessa wore that sexy open front dress mere inches away from me.
I barely saw Emma Roberts as she rushed past. She was rocking that little black dress though.
Ashley Benson looks nice. I didn't much see her either.
Eliza Dushku's lipstick was very red. o.O
And here's a nice shot of Eva Longoria too.
As always, click any pic to see the full gallery. I didn't find any of Chelsea Kane though. :(
So in honor of her 18th birthday, I finally got around to framing my new Debby Ryan autograph. Pretty awesome right? I love that pic of her.
I ended up spending a couple hours rearranging and fixing up my autographs wall. So I thought I might as well show it off. These first few are unchanged...
There are a few new ones in this next batch including Erin sanders (Zoey 101, Big Time Rush), Carly Schroeder (Port Charles, Lizzie McGuire) and Daniella Monet (Victorious).
I did keep one I'm in the Band pic for myself. And despite Disney flat out refusing to give me one at the filming, (seriously, they treat everyone over 16 like crap) I did eventually manage to get my hands on a Sonny with a Chance poster. :D
I finally got around to framing my Ariana Grande autograph. It's only been 7 months. LOL.
I got my Bella Thorne and Zendaya autographs on the far right of this next pic plus my Taylor Swift calenders (This year's and last!)
Last but not least, one of the rarest pieces of KP memorabilia that I know to exist.
I hope you enjoyed looking half as much as I enjoyed showing off. And no, you can't have anything, so don't ask. :P
