Selena talks about how the movie is mostly about friendship. “At first we kind of butt heads,” Selena reveals. “But you get to see our character arc and what we go through.”

As for the music video, Selena says it’s basically just she and Demi fooling around! “You get to see our real friendship during this music video.”

The two are thrown together after Carter’s father, an agent in the covert international Princess Protection Program (PPP), rescues Rosalinda from an attempted coup by a neighboring dictator. Tomboy Carter helps Rosie pose as a visiting cousin and, to return the favor, Rosie nominates Carter for Homecoming Queen. Although they’re polar opposites, Carter and Rosie must also find a way to foil the Costa Luna plot, not to mention the plans of a pair of jealous classmates.

Nicolas tweeted today “1 month til Princess Protection Party is out on Disney Channel! June 26, 8p. Shia Laboeuf makes a cameo, so don’t miss it!!”

Shia LaBeouf is making a short return to the Disney Channel. You may remember him in the series Even Stevens, when he played Louis Stevens. The show was about “The misadventures of the Stevens family, an upper-middle class family in Sacramento, California.” Ah, I miss that show!

He also starred in the Walt Disney film “Holes”. What do you think about Shia being in “Princess Protection Program” AND do you think it’s for real?!

In this new clip, Rosie ends up being quite the bowler. She keeps getting strike after strike.

When he [Carter’s dad] arrives back in Lake Monroe, both teenagers are shell-shocked when Rosie moves into Carter’s room and the princess, posing as Carter’s visiting cousin from Iowa, begins adjusting to country life and enrolls in Carter’s school. Despite their differences, the girls slowly learn that there’s not only a lot to like about each other, but lessons to learn as well. That’s apparent when Rosie nominates Carter for homecoming queen over the heated objections of two jealous rivals, Chelsea and Brooke. And with her newfound realization, Carter brainstorms a way to help her new best friend regain her throne, even if it puts her own well-being at risk.

PPP is about when “royalty meets reality with Carter Mason, a rural Louisiana teen, and Rosalinda Marie Montoya Fiore, the soon-to-be teenage monarch of the tiny country of Costa Luna. The pair meets after Carter’s father, an agent in the covert international Princess Protection Program, rescues Rosalinda from a military take-over.  He whisks Rosalinda to a PPP base where she receives a temporary new identity, Rosie Gonzalez, and is placed in his care until order can be restored in Costa Luna.”

PPP airs on the Disney Channel June 26th and the DVD will be released on June 30th. Do you think this movie will be any good? I like what I’ve seen from the clips so far and I think Selena and Demi fans are thrilled to see them in a movie together.

Nicholaus turns the camera on Demi and says, “People have been saying that you act like a princess on set”. Demi’s reply was “I’m not a princess, I’m a queen”. LOL.

“Princess Protection Program” comes to the Disney Channel on Friday, June 26th!
