Bridgit Mendler Planet Premiere
Happy Friday! Bridgit Mendler (LEMONADE MOUTH/GOOD LUCK CHARLIE) sings to save the world with the Planet Premiere of her new Friends for Change song, WE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD, tonight at 3 PM on Radio Disney and during the 7 PM hour on Disney Channel.
The song will be available tomorrow (6/11) on Disney.com/ProjectGreen and iTunes. Friends for Change is a green initiative that enlists Disney Channel stars to support environmental concerns and encourage fans to take action too. Proceeds from past FFC songs helped raise funds for conservation projects worldwide.
Way back when, Bridge (yes, that's her REAL nickname) co-starred on JONAS as the love interest of hunky heartthrob, Nicholas Jerry Jonas, aka, Nick! Now he's busy touring with his band, Nick Jonas & The Administration after the release of their album WHO I AM ... not to mention acting in the London stage production of LES MISERABLES, and writing/producing songs for other singers. Where will he pop up next?

Got trivia? If you're really, really, really as smart as you think you are, then just try to beat the master. (Um, that would be ME) :P
