Looks like iCarly and Victorious are meeting a little early!

Victoria Justice and Jennette McCurdy are voicing Becky and Stacy Badger in a new, upcoming episode of The Penguins of Madagascar.

Victoria shared about her badger: “Stacy is a badger who is very perky and upbeat and she’s really excited about everything. But as soon as you say something that offends her, she snaps in a second. Marlene, who is an otter, starts throwing out these badger stereotypes and Stacy gets really offended and she goes a little crazy.”

In “Badger Pride,” the zoo’s new badger exhibit has Private exceptionally terrified. Marlene asserts that Private’s fear of badgers is irrational. So she sets out to calm his panic by introducing him to the new zoo neighbors, Becky (McCurdy) and Stacy (Justice). Surprisingly, Private discovers that the badgers are quite pleasant. But when Marlene accidentally offends Becky she realizes the painful truth to Private’s badger anxiety.

“Badger Pride” premieres THIS SATURDAY, September 3rd @ 10AM on Nickelodeon.

Jennette McCurd – Country Music Strikes A Chord!

Jennette McCurdy’s new EP, Not That Far Away, is out on iTunes now and rising on the country charts.

The 18-year-old actress/singer dished on just why she’s not a pop princess, meeting Faith Hill at a young age and telling a story with her album. Check it:

On why she chose country over pop: “It’s always been my favorite. I found that I could relate to it more than any other genre and I felt like it was so honest. It told stories like nothing else and it spilled everything right out on the table. There’s hardly a country song that plays that doesn’t make you smile and want to dance or want to make you have a tear trickling down your cheek, so for country music to evoke those kinds of emotions, I guess that’s what drew me towards it.”

On playing Faith Hill’s daughter: “I was into Faith Hill when ‘Breathe’ came out. I love that song. When I was seven, I actually did a music video where I played her daughter and was able to talk to her and see how nice she is. She really encouraged me at a young age.”

On her album telling people who she is: “I really wanted to just be honest to myself, stay true to myself with every song and deliver a CD that I felt reflected who I am as a person and tell the stories of my life because I feel that that’s what people will relate to the most. Country music strikes a chord in peoples hearts that makes you think ‘wow! I know exactly what they’re talking about. I felt that before.’ I wanted people to be able to feel the same thing and I felt that could only be accomplished if I really wrote what I knew.”


Victoria Justice – ‘Writing A Bunch Of Songs!’

Victoria Justice showed off her stunning smile as she chatted with Ryan Seacrest on 102.7 KIIS FM early on Wednesday morning (August 25).

The 17-year-old actress says of her show, “It’s kind of like one of the first shows Nickelodeon has done that incorporates music and we have really cool performances. [I'm] really lucky, because I honestly have so much fun everyday when I go to work.”

Victoria also dished that her music is coming along: “I’m writing a bunch of songs, which is like so much fun, and it should be released sometime next year.”

FYI: Vic insists that she is single and “looking.”

Dylan & Cole Sprouse – Pokemon Pair!

Dylan and Cole Sprouse keep it cool in a beach house in Santa Monica, Calif., as they film a new Nintendo Pokemon commercial earlier this month.

The 18-year-old twins played both Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version on their Nintendo DSs, battled against each other and race to see who can rack up the most steps using the Pokéwalker accessory, which a small pedometer-like device that lets players bring their favorite Pokémon with them wherever they go.

By walking, players earn Watts, which are used within the Pokéwalker to encounter and catch wild Pokémon or search for hidden items that can then be transferred into the Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version games.

Cole shared of the game, “I think I like Pokémon HeartGold and Pokémon SoulSilver because we played the original Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver, so to play these games again is really nostalgic.”

The twins also told JJJ about their favorite features of the game. “The shiny leaf idea and the ability to have your Pokemon follow you,” they shared.

The commercial they filmed will begin airing on Monday, August 16 on Cartoon Network, Disney XD, Nickelodeon and Nicktoons.

Check out a behind-the-scenes video below!

The series, now in it’s second season, was just nominated for it’s first Emmy, alongside Wizards, iCarly and Hannah Montana.

The musical trio caught up with MTV and dished about the nom, “We are very super excited! We’ve never been up for an Emmy before. That’s never been on our radar, so something like that’s really exciting. We don’t know who will win.”

Joe added in, “There’s a lot of Disney in there, so I think we’re gonna have some friendly competition going on there. Me and [Wizards star] David Henrie, we’ve been talking to each other and kind of making fun of each other here and there about the Emmy thing. But whoever wins, it’ll be cool for us to be honored. … That is amazing in general.”

WHO DO YOU THINK will take home the prize?
