The one event I've been wanting to post about is the "Camp Rock 2" world premiere, which I was invited to and did get to attend. The event was THE highlight of my summer. Thanks to the Jonas Brothers' fanclub, Team Jonas, I was awarded tickets to the Disney-esque event that took place on Aug. 18th, 2010 at Lincoln Center.
Just about everyone from the movie was there, including Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers. Though I did get to walk the red carpet, I didn't get to walk the same one the stars did. Instead, we, meaning the guests, were forced inside the glass walls of the Alice Tully Hall lobby to watch the celebrities get interviewed by the press.
Minutes after press time, everyone was escorted into the main theatre. The fact that I was in the same room with my favorite band and role model made me want to get out of my chair and scream like a little girl.
The movie started and was great. I won't say anything about it now, but I will have a separate review about the movie. Though I will say, it's a lot better than the first one.
When the movie was over, everyone thought that the event was done. But Disney had something up their sleeve. Something BIG. A special performance.
WHAT?! (that was my reaction). I was sitting front row center and seeing Demi Lovato along with the cast dancing and singing their butts off. I had never been this close in any concert I've been too. I was so close that (not to sound gross), but I could see up Demi's skirt.
So Demi and the cast perform and I think, "Oh, cool. That was amazing." Nope, there's more. The curtain behind her dropped and there stood three of the most beautiful people I've ever seen: The Jonas Brothers.
I couldn't help but shake because for years I had wanted to be front row at one of their concerts. This wasn't exactly a concert but it was close to one. The guys performed "Heart and Soul" from the movie we had just seen along with "Play My Music" from the first "Camp Rock" movie and their own song, "Lovebug". Demi came out and sang "Wouldn't Change A Thing" with Joe Jonas, a duet sung in the movie by their characters Mitchie and Shane. To end the performance, the other performers came out and sang "This Is Our Song", which happens to also be the closing song in the movie.
The night was one of the best nights of my life. Not only did Joe Jonas touch my left hand (*sighs and faints*), but I got to see a brand new movie, sing a long with my favorite musicians and even get free "Camp Rock" merchandise! Here are some pictures from the event:
