Chloe Bridges – Dana is Switzerland!

Chloe Bridges stars as Dana in the upcoming Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam — which premieres on Disney Channel in just nine days.

The 18-year-old pianist/actress caught up with TV Guide to chat about her character, the friendships she’s made and the movie. Check it:

On Dana: “The cool thing about Dana is she is just real and raw and honest and uninhibited — she is definitely an empowered female. She doesn’t really interact with any of the other girls in the movie. They would refer to Dana as Switzerland — she doesn’t get involved in the Camp Rock/Camp Star battle thing.”

On not realizing how big Camp Rock really was: “I actually didn’t quite know what I was getting myself into. I had no idea what a phenomenon Camp Rock had become and it blew me away how supportive and passionate the fans are. They would wait outside where we were shooting just to see us drive into work and that blew my mind. I’ve never worked on a movie that has so much hype around it.”

On pushing Nick Jonas into a lake: “He [took it] because he’s Nick and he’s the man and takes everything well, but I would’ve been mad.”

ARE YOU HYPED for Camp Rock 2?

The Jonas Brothers Are Handy Men – New Camp Rock 2 Stills!

There goes the bus!

Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas watch in shock as their tour bus tumbles over a cliff in this new still from Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam.

The JoBros chatted with JJJ about this particular scene recently and when asked who was the handiest of the trio — they couldn’t decide!

Kevin joked, “I’m really good at K’Nex (laughs),” while Joe shared his lifelong dream of a tree house: “I think it’s pretty much a dream of mine to build a tree house. So that’s in the works. I’m making the blueprints right now.”

But Nick dreams and builds big! “I built a couple of top secret projects before but they required some handy work. Yeah, I can’t say what it is but they were good. Very big things.”

Joe added, “You’ve heard of the White House? (laughing) The West Wing? He built the West Wing.”

WHO DO YOU THINK is the handiest of the Jonas Brothers?

Nick Jonas & Chloe Bridges Meet In The Middle!

Nick Jonas and Chloe Bridges have their own little West Side Story going on inside their upcoming DCOM, Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam.

When JJJ first chatted with Chloe on the set of Camp Rock 2, she hadn’t filmed a lot of scenes yet — in fact, they had just started production!

Chloe shared with us about her favorite scene, “My favorite one, I probably can’t tell you what happens, but let’s just say that it involves a musical number? I guess I can say that. There’s a song involved and I just listen to the song. Little shady, but anyway, it’s kind of a culmination of our storyline and it’s kind of how we get together. Through music, of course.”

WHICH SCENE DO YOU THINK Chloe is talking about?

Selena Gomez Lost Her Voice!

Be thankful for modern technology!

Selena Gomez is breathtaking in a stunning LBD as she “chats” with George Lopez on Lopez Tonight on Monday night (July 26) in Los Angeles.

The 18-year-old actress actually lost her voice! Selena turned to a handy-dandy Dynavox machine and a dry-erase board to converse with the talk show host and comedian.

Selena told George about being good friends with Justin Bieber and teasing him about his height. She shared, “[I told him] ‘I’m not going to take off my heels. You’re short, embrace it.’”

On the show, George actually presented Selena with a gift basket from Warner Bros full of The Wizard of Oz merchandise and Dynavox donated their machine in her name to the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles!

FYI: Selena was wearing Ippolita’s 18k Gold Polished Rock Candy Large Circle Earrings in Mother of Pearl, 18k Gold Rock Candy Gelato Bangle in Mother of Pearl, and an 18k Gold Polished Rock Candy Bean Bangle in Mother of Pearl.

The Jonas Brothers: The Director Leaked Camp Rock Photos!

Kevin, Nick and Joe Jonas are anxious for a game of golf in this new shot from their adventures in Europe from Jonas Brothers: Living The Dream 2.

The musical trio caught up with MTV recently and dished on their upcoming DCOM, Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam.

They shared about the feel and leaked pictures, “[We shot] at so many different locations this time. The story line is really great. They built a camp for the movie and they blocked off a whole mile radius so that people couldn’t really find out what the movie was about. It was a really fun experience, and everyone really kept it under wraps. The director [Paul Hoen] was the one who kind of leaked pictures on his Facebook … of all the people!”

Joe also dished on being a part of the new documentary film, OCEANS, saying, “I didn’t expect that at all when the charity asked us. And Demi [Lovato] and I were like, ‘Definitely.’ Then to hear it was a part of the movie, it was an even greater thing for us. It’s so cool.”

Remember, the FIRST music video from Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam, “Can’t Back Down,” premieres THIS Sunday, April 25th.

On her favorite song from Camp Rock 2 The Final Jam: “‘I Wouldn’t Change a Thing’ (the duet with boyfriend Joe Jonas). It’s a song that’s close to my heart. It’s probably one of my favorite parts of the movie.”

On her favorite Sonny With a Chance skit: “‘The Real Princesses of New Jersey,’ I get to put on a blonde wig and I don’t look like myself! I like putting on all the crazy makeup.”

On the funniest thing that happened behind-the-scenes of Camp Rock 2: One night in particular when we were all sitting around a campfire, Nick, Kevin and Joe were being so hilarious. I was having a hard time trying not to laugh. When I watched the scene back, I was totally laughing in the scene! Sometimes those boys will make you laugh until you cry. They’re the funniest people ever.”
