Aaron Guerra: It was in New York City that you discovered you could have a career as an actor. What made you realize it, and in the Big Apple?

Jamie Fishback:Yeah, funny as it sounds, the Big Apple inspired me to act. I have family in upstate New York, so myself, and my parents went to visit them. And, of course, while you’re in New York, you have to visit Manhattan. For the previous 3 or 4 years, I had been trying to figure out what the next step in my life was. I had graduated with a computer degree, but realized that I needed more interaction with people on a daily basis. So, while in Manhattan doing to touristy thing we came to Time Square. There was a “Target” billboard ad, and something inside of me spoke up and say, “You should do that.” I really thought nothing of it, and continued with the family on our day out. Later on we ended up in the financial district, and there was another billboard ad, and again, “You should do that.” So, going back home, I started looking into modeling, and realized that it was definitely fun. But, it was for a very small niche of people, and I DO NOT fit that niche. However in researching and talking to people about modeling, I feel into to acting.

Aaron Guerra: Now that you’re living in Los Angeles has it been easier for you to get more opportunities?

Jamie Fishback: Yes and No. There are definitely many more opportunities in LA with acting. However, it has taken about 2 1/2 years of hard work, networking, and training to get where I am right now. Which, really, is only a few steps up on the ladder in this biz (that could easily change in the snap of a finger). Yes, I have gotten more opportunities in Los Angeles, but it hasn’t really been easy. But, nothing in life that’s worth anything is easy.

Aaron Guerra: What kind of classes have you been taking to expand your skills?

Jamie Fishback: Currently, I am taking classes at Lesly Kahn. I have also taken classes at Briane Resse studios, Margie Haber studios, and Stephen Synder studios.

Aaron Guerra: Are there any specific roles that you are going to audition for?

Jamie Fishback: I personally want to be auditioning for more action roles, but in order to get there I’m willing to audition and consider most roles.

Aaron Guerra: How do you practice before going to an audition?

Jamie Fishback: For me, personally, I have to know the lines as much as possible to be able to give my best performance. If I’m able to get the sides early I try to run through it at least 10 times out loud to get a feel for the character. Then, from there I try to get as many as the other sides as possible and see how my character interacts through out the script. Making sure I’m thinking what the character is thinking is a huge place for me to be when going into the audition. If I’m able to find a friend to run through the sides with me, I’ll also do that as much as I can. However, when I don’t get the sides with enough time, either the day of or at the audition, I normally read through it as much as I can, and allow my listening and gut to make the decisions for me.

Aaron Guerra: Are you more aware that there’s more expression in acting since you moved a lot to different places with your military family?

Jamie Fishback: Actually, I would say the opposite has happened. Yes, there are a lot of experiences that I enjoyed, and have been able to have that most people will never have. But, because I was a kid and had to move around, my connection with people became short. Since acting is all about listening and responding to people, I have had to work on learning how to really connect with another person again.

Aaron Guerra: Which actor do you want to work with the most?

Jamie Fishback:There are so many actors I would love to work with; Nicolas Cage, Brad
Pitt. or Edward Norton to name a few.

Aaron Guerra: Are there any plans to do more than acting? directing, producing?

Jamie Fishback: As an actor you always have to be open to being behind the camera as
well. I am currently working with people to producing and write
several feature films.

Aaron Guerra: It looks like you are a big user of social network sites and it seems it has helped you move toward your career; What are the outcomes of it? Is it really better to network on sites like Twitter, MySpace & Facebook?

Jamie Fishback: I have found that using networking sites are good, and helped me make some connections in the industry. However, meeting people in person in the industry is, in my opinion, almost always better. I find that Myspace has become more of building a fan base for me. The more people that are my “friends” on there, the more likely people will pay attention to what I’m doing in the future. I use facebook primary to stay connected with people I know personally. I have recently used
twitter, which has lead me to this interview, thank you twitter. I have also made other connections, that, who knows, may turn into
something in the future.

Aaron Guerra: What do you see yourself doing in 10 years from now?

Jamie Fishback: My wildest dreams would be rubbing elbows with my friends in the ‘A’ list circle. I’m sure I’ll be a father by then, have settled some what down, and started traveling the world.

Aaron Guerra: Have you always seen yourself being a performer?

Nancy Rancourt: Yes, from life onset, I knew I was a performer. There are just some things we ‘know’ in life, kind of like falling in love, you just know.

Aaron Guerra: What is the part you like most about your career?

Nancy Rancourt: Seeing fans smiling, dancing, and singing along to my songs when I’m performing. That connective energy between all of us is such a fantastic feeling. LOL, my fans call it Nann-Tastic, how adorable is that!

Aaron Guerra: Everyone has those hard times in life, how did you overcome yours?

Nancy Rancourt: Good friends, a box of smarties, and the positive self empowerment I get from my manifestation boards hanging on my wall. I list things that are important to me that I want in life, personal and professional, and I read it everyday, working towards it. I update it and pat myself on the back for the successes, and I give myself a ‘raincheck’ acknowledgement for the things that are taking longer or are no longer significantly important to my life plan.

Aaron Guerra: Being an openly gay artist, has it affected your career in an negative/positive ways?

Nancy Rancourt: It wasn’t always ‘ok’ to be ‘gay’ and at first it really affected me, but then I decided my happiness was more important than an ignorant person’s opinion, and since then negative reactions just don’t affect me whatsoever. Society has evolved in a positive way, recognizing and respective diversity, and it continues to evolve, and that’s fantastic!

Aaron Guerra: Who is the one person you admire most, and why?

Nancy Rancourt: The person I admire most is my best friend Shauna Major. She is my harmony singer at many live shows and is a solo artist herself, and her voice is just so unique and beautiful. She is one of the most loyal, upfront, dedicated individuals on this planet, with the gift of knowing what to say and do in moments that need it. She’s on the ball, and so funny she can make me laugh even at times when I’ve wanted to cry. Shauna is a friend and a Hero. She’s my Hero.

Aaron Guerra: This summer you have been really busy going all over the place, how was that?

Nancy Rancourt: My summer tour was a fabulous time and I had the chance to work with my dear comedienne friend Christine O’Leary at several shows in the U.S. and Canada. Christine and I in the same room inevitably turn into an episode of ‘I Love Lucy’ cuz we’re both off the wall silly! Although I’m not a ‘comedienne’, Christine and I did a ‘food network watching is like phone sex calling’ comedy routine together on stage, and it was a blast! We also interviewed each other on imgay.tv and that was an insane amount of foot-in-the-mouth fun!

Aaron Guerra: So, what are some future projects your working on?

Nancy Rancourt: Ah c’mon, if I tell you that, it’ll ruin the element of surprise! LOL. But I promise they are surprises.

Aaron Guerra: Everyone knows the entertainment business is harsh and cruel, body image is everything, have you ever felt that you where not good enough, and how did you overcome that?

Nancy Rancourt: Sure. Been there, wore the t-shirt. In fact wore the T-shirt stretched over my butt to hide what I used to think was an unappealing oversized butt. All it took was for someone to point out that I had the same GREAT BOOTIE as J-LO and suddenly I saw myself differently and began to love my butt and sport around in clothes that no longer hid it. I still wear oversized long T-shirts for pj comfort on lazy days, but, the fact is I love my bootie now. Changing perception really does make a difference. The entertainment industry is very demanding about body image but (butt, lol), my attitude about the industry’s expectations are ‘WHATEVE’!

Aaron Guerra: Your an amazing woman, how do you stay so headstrong?

Nancy Rancourt: I treat myself the way I treat a friend, with kindness, forgiveness, encouragement, and support. And, I don’t take crap from anyone because I’m not a puppet or a doormat so when head-butting is needed, I’m in there like swimwear challenging powers that be who try to bully me into submission. I dedicate the same energy to help friends in situations where they’re being mistreated cuz I have zero tolerance for mean people. I believe in others like I believe in myself, and THAT inspires and drives me to just keep going even if a situation seems impossible at the time. The way I see it, the only final thing in life is death, and even that I’ll try to negotiate, lol.

Aaron Guerra: You’re beautiful, how do you do it?

Nancy Rancourt: Ahh, shucks, thanks! Well, I really HATE exercising! I mean really! So, instead I crank up my fave dance music tunes, and I dance around like a silly nut for 20 minutes everyday, now THAT is fun! I also do 5 minutes of yoga when I need to relax and find balance, other than that I’m a tornado of energy and zest for life so I guess keeping busy keeps me fit. Here’s a secret I’ll share, I use egg whites as a face mask once a week. I just put it on with a silky cloth, let it dry and then half hour later I wash it off with warm water. And yeah, I eat healthy for the most part but the trick to it is I CHEAT and reward myself with a piece of over-iced chocolate cake afterwards…I mean, it’s ok, I’ll dance it off the next day anyway, eat healthy again, and eat another piece of cake. Life is short, no sense in depriving ourselves of great fun and tasty food!

Aaron Guerra: How did you get into acting?

Zach Bostrom: My Mom entered me in baby contests from time to time and one time when I won a judge told me I’d be great for modeling. Mom looked into it and I started doing modeling. From there I branched into commercials then T.V. It was just a natural progression. I always was given the choice to continue or stop as I got older. Every time I chose to continue. I loved every bit of the business and still do to this day.

Aaron Guerra: what’s your most memorable acting experience?

Zach Bostrom: I have quite a few to pick from so just one is impossible. Working with Robert Mitchum and Robert Urich before they passed was an honor. Having the chance to do the series Harry and the Hendersons and work with Bruce Davidson is an experience I will never forget. I loved going to UT and working on Johnny Tsunami. I was able to ski in top of the line demo gear almost every day we filmed on fresh powder. Not to mention the resorts were always closed off to the public so all the runs were just for us. Each project has had its special moments and something new and exciting.

Aaron Guerra: Looking back at classic TV shows like “Full House” and “Who’s the boss?,” do you feel lucky being part of that generation?

Zach Bostrom: Of course. Full House, Who’s The Boss, 21 Jump Street, Fame, The Very Brady Christmas. Almost everyone in my generation and older know those shows. We grew up with them and loved them. To be able to meet and work along with the cast and have them on my resume is awesome! I feel very privileged!

Aaron Guerra: Do you have any current projects in the works?

Zach Bostrom: Right now thing are quiet with the pending actor’s strike. I have a Pepsi and Honda commercial out playing. The Pepsi spot is on Pepsi. com under the T.V. spot “Gift Monster.” Last year I worked on CSI: Vegas and Close to Home. The year before that JAG and Will and Grace. At the moment I’m searching for a literary agent to publish some short stories, novels and hopefully sell some screenplays I have written.

Aaron Guerra: I read that you used to be heavily involved in sports, especially soccer. Are you as active now than you were back then?

Zach Bostrom: I am still active in soccer and play 4 times a week. Late into High School I had to make the difficult choice of continuing acting, taking some soccer scholarships, or going over seas and continuing soccer. I tried playing overseas for a bit and though I really enjoyed it my family is here in the States. I would’ve loved to take the college scholarships but that also would’ve meant completely stopping acting. It was a really hard decision to make. Soccer is and always will be a huge passion of mine which I hope to continue playing forever but at the time I had to look at long term. I’m just happy with the experiences I had playing overseas and throughout my life so far.

Aaron Guerra: What kind of direction would you like to take in your acting career?
Zach Bostrom: I would love to continue working as I am now and hopefully more! Another series would be great and also would love to work on the big screen.

Aaron Guerra: Are there any plans to write or direct your own projects?

Zach Bostrom: I have a few screenplays I have written. One is a soccer script I would love to not only sell but star in. There have been very few soccer movies that aren’t a spoof, comedy or a joke to the soccer community.

Aaron Guerra: Who is the one actor you’d like to work with in Hollywood?

Zach Bostrom: Oh, now that’s a real tough one. I obviously have many actors and actresses I would like to work with for various reasons. Right now I think I would like to work and meet with George Clooney. Not only did he make the jump from T.V. to film but he is super respected throughout Hollywood, has had amazing roles, handles the media well and is all around a very interesting person. I think I could learn so much in my craft and as a person meeting him.

Aaron Guerra: This generation has become more personal, so if you were asked to do a reality show, would you do it? why or why not?

Zach Bostrom: I don’t think so but I’ll never say never. Especially if it were a show about my every day life (like Hogan Knows Best or something). I enjoy my privacy and if I were ever to get famous enough where I could have a show like that I’d want what little privacy I have left to stay intact. I’m not a huge fan of reality T.V. I’d personally love to see the old days of sitcoms and dramas come back and replace the hundreds of reality game shows etc that are on right now. But it’s cheap for studios to do and people eat it up so I don’t see it stopping any time soon unfortunately.

Aaron Guerra:. What advice do you have for struggling actors?

Zach Bostrom: Don’t quit. Don’t let anyone, no matter how close they are to you, discourage or stop you from a dream. Use it as motivation to get better and prove to yourself that you have what it takes.

Aaron Guerra: Any last words to your fans?

Zach Bostrom: Thank you and I hope you have enjoyed the work I’ve done so far! I hope to continue and act in many more projects down the road!

Aaron Guerra: At what age did you started dancing?

Erik Renz: My Mom said I started dancing when I was about 2 years old. She said I would just move around to the music and I would do it in front of anybody. When I was around 7 years old I performed for the first time at my 3rd grade talent show. It was also the first thing I had choreographed. Then my sister got into dance at a studio called Center Stage and I told my Mom I wanted to do the same. I started in a beginner’s class but my instructor wanted me to move up to the advanced class. I did after 3 weeks and after that year of classes; they wanted me to move up to Junior Company. This is when I think I made the biggest mistake of my life – I quit dancing for basketball, which obviously never stuck. At 15, I watched You Got Served and then I got into dance again. I started learning the dances from the instructional DVD they sold after the movie. Then I learned all the choreography from the movie and still wanted to learn more. That’s when I found Shane Sparks and Robert Hoffman III on Youtube and I learned by watching anything I could find with them. The rest is history I guess.

Aaron Guerra: Who are your influences in dancing?

Erik Renz: There are a lot of dancers that I look up to. To name a few: Robert Hoffman III, Shane Sparks, Chris Brown, Dave Scott, Mia Michaels, Joy Clift (my dance teacher), Tucker Barkley, Michael Jackson. I think there are to many to list so I’ll just stop there.

Aaron Guerra: What inspires you to create different moves?

Erik Renz: I don’t really ever know what I’m doing when I’m creating dance moves. It just happens… normally when I’m freestyling. I guess it comes up from watching my influences dance and when I see something I like, I learn it from them. After that, I just tweak it a little bit to make something that’s my own.

Aaron Guerra: Any favorite dance movies? if so, what and why?

Erik Renz: Well, You Got Served was a biggie since it ‘s what started me in dancing. Stomp the Yard was another good one. I liked this one because it was a little more rough and gritty. Another of my favorites was Step Up. I think it was the first actual dance film that wasn’t completely reliant on the dancing and brought dance into the public eye – made it more acceptable I guess? My favorite right now is Step Up 2 the Streets. I was excited to see Robert Hoffman starring in his first movie and dancing as well. Ever since You Got Served I had been watching for anything that Robert was releasing with dance in it so I could learn more from him. His style is so incredible when he mixes hip-hop with his more “classic” training and puts it to a hard rock song (like the Diary of Jane solo in the film).

Aaron Guerra: How many days/hours do your practice? Is there a routine you go through to stay in shape?

Erik Renz: If you asked my parents this I’m sure their answer would be all the time. I don’t really have a set schedule. Since I’ve taught myself all the hip-hop I know I don’t really go to a studio and train. I would say I always have some kind of music going through my head and I just dance around to it non-stop, practicing new things. I try to choreograph for about an hour most days though. That would probably fall under the “training” category. As for staying in shape – I never really worked out until about a year ago with my roommate. He put me on his lifting routine and that’s what I’ve been sticking to – Chest/ Tricep, Back/ Bicep, and Legs. Each is on a different day and you do abs everyday. I count my dancing as cardio.

Aaron Guerra: You also like to write lyrics. How did that come about?

Erik Renz: The lyrics thing was kind of a fluke. When I was 11 I lived in England with my family and they are really big into fine arts there. I was required to take a music class and my teacher, Mr. Millington, was amazing. He had a class competition for everyone in the class to form a group or solo act and we had to either make up a song ourselves (music, lyrics, etc.) and perform it or pick our favorite artist and perform one of their songs. I chose to write my own song and at that time I was really into Nelly and I wrote a rap song. I actually still remember the lyrics I wrote… My name is Erik Renz, I come from the states/ I was brought into this world in 1988/. I’ll stop there as to stop further embarrassment. Anyway, I actually won the competition and after that I just kept writing rap songs. Eventually I got a little more serious about it and have been writing R&B/ Hip-Hop types of songs.

Aaron Guerra: Is singing still in your future plans? If so, what kind of music sound/style would you get into?

Erik Renz: Singing is definitely still in my plans and I would love to create R&B/ Hip-Hop songs. I also have always wanted to blend that genre into like Rock or Indie or something –kind of like Chris Brown meets Coldplay?

Aaron Guerra: Do you use YouTube to express your art, or to promote yourself? Do you think it works both ways?

Erik Renz: Youtube wasn’t ever meant to get me anything – at least that wasn’t the plan. I remembered I had an account after watching Step Up 2, and decided that I should post some videos up just to show what I could do. I started getting lots of comments and messages after I did the Step Up 2 Finale dance. After I answered the comments and messages it just kept getting bigger and it formed a way to advertise myself. The original plan for my Youtube page was just to show I could dance. When people asked me about stuff it turned into a way to teach people and spread my love of dance – help get people inspired you know. I definitely think it works both ways – creativity and promotion - it just depends on how you use it. It’s such a powerful tool nowadays considering how people have been getting discovered (Esmee Denters, Justin Beiber, etc.) and it can definitely be a place just for art (Joseph Gordon Levitt from 10 Things I Hate About You posts his pieces on Youtube under Hitrecord – amazing stuff… true art.).

Aaron Guerra: You made a few video challenges to Miley and Mandy, currently one titled “Miley and Mandy - Still Waiting.” If they return the challenge, how would you go about doing the next one to top it off?

Erik Renz: Hmm. That’s a good question. There would definitely be some acting in this one. I love comedy and I think I would take my camera around Georgia Tech and ask random people to dance for me – now that I think about it – kind of like What the Buck did with his version. It’s more fun having more people involved. Of course the normal dancing would be in there – maybe a little mockery dance for some humor? I think I’d also do a different style, show them how versatile the ACDC is compared to the M&M cru… something along those lines? I think I’d just give it more comedy since the last 3 videos I did for ACDC were so dance strong – make it a little more fun.

Aaron Guerra: What advice do you have for aspiring dancers?

Erik Renz: If I had advice for any aspiring dancers it would be to pretend as if you know nothing. I know it sounds weird but my thoughts on dance are that you should learn as if you have never danced (in a way) and when you perform, you bring out the cockiness and the personality. I think if people are to concerned about outshining others or being the best or how they look while they are learning, then they don’t learn as much as they can. I believe you reach your best potential when you are humble. – Why would God tell us to be something if he knew it wouldn’t benefit us? Also, don’t be afraid to try new things. Dance is about breaking out of your comfort zone and letting yourself go.

Aaron Guerra: Why the album title “Bird’s Eye View”?

Amy Kuney: Here is the story behind that title: So, I was born in the Midwest in a safe community, I never saw anything out of the ordinary, and then when I was 13 my dad moved my family to Honduras to become a missionary. So I started seeing a lot of new things. It really stretched me…my emotions, my spirituality..etc. and I knew that I would never see anything the same way again. So I felt like I saw everything from a “Bird’s Eye View”. If you listen to the chorus I sing: “Oh Ive seen everything new from a birds eye view, from the clouds, now that I know all that Ive missed it’s gonna make it harder to live on the ground..”

Aaron Guerra: Your reaction when your song “All Downhill From Here” was featured on the season finale of One Tree Hill?

Amy Kuney: Haha. We have it video taped actually. I was trying to act “cool” while we were watching it but inside I was jumping up and down screaming.

Aaron Guerra: Fans loved your song on OTH. Is it possible we might hear more?

Amy Kuney: I would love to hear another one of my songs on OTH! We’re working on it!

Aaron Guerra: Who are your influences in music?

Amy Kuney: Wow, I have a lot of them…Fiona Apple, Damien Rice (Who I just had the honor of touring with (mini tour…hah), Band of Horses, Ella Fitzgerald, Muse…the list goes on…

Aaron Guerra: Is there a one favorite song you like on the album? If so, which one and why?

Amy Kuney: Ha. I feel cocky talking about my favorite “Amy Kenney” song! But I would have to say “Appreciate your hands” is my favorite one. Honestly, I’ve cried listening to it before because it means so much to me personally. It’s about someone who leads an honest humble life…is never noticed, is never appreciated until I meet them, and promise to “appreciate their hands”. It’s a sensual song, a little dark, and to some, a little dramatic but I love it.

Aaron Guerra: At what age did you l earn to play piano, guitar and sing?

Amy Kuney: I learned classical piano at age 4 or 5, guitar at age 16, and I started singing about 3 years ago. I wrote a bunch of songs and figured I didn’t want anyone else to sing them so I just started singing!

Aaron Guerra: What inspires you to write songs?

Amy Kuney: Wow…everything. Mostly stories from friends, family, television and books. I read a lot of books and the way authors talk in their books, or describe things. Authors really inspire me to be more creative with my description and story telling. I want to say something in a way that it’s never been said before.

Aaron Guerra: What’s been the experience playing at cafes and such?

Amy Kuney: Well every singer wants to play stadiums of course…Haha. But you have to start somewhere, and I love the more intimate experience. I’m less nervous in smaller places where I get to actually meet and talk to everyone there.

Aaron Guerra: If you weren’t doing music as a career, what would your ideal profession be?

Amy Kuney: I think I would want to be an author.

Aaron Guerra: What would you like to achieve in the music business?

Amy Kuney: To be completely honest, I want to be able to support myself, living comfortably, and do what I love to do…and that’s write/perform my music!

Aaron Guerra: You’re starting a YouTube Vlogging account. Is this a new outlet as an actor to express yourself in an artistic way?

Jonathan Sinani: Personally, I do feel that youtube is a great outlet to express myself in a healthy artistic way. I can reach and broadcast myself
to viewers all over the world. Its a great online tool, that I feel should be taken advantage of.

Aaron Guerra: What do you think of today’s social networks like MySpace. Do you like it how everything is so fast now? Is this an advantage to network with other talents?

Jonathan Sinani: Myspace is amazing, its a perfect personal/professional network to communicate. The best part is that it’s fast, you can communicate instantly with various people. I do consider myspace a great place to network and meet other talents in the industry, I’ve met people like Travis Aaron Wade, and Adam Bouska through myspace. All wonderful and very talented people, if I may say so myself.

Aaron Guerra: Who is someone in the entertainment that you look up to, and why?

Jonathan Sinani: There is a lot of people in the entertainment that I look up to. Personally, I really look up to Nancy Rancourt for her inspiration as a human being and talent. For the wonderful and beautiful woman that she is, and her amazing courage and determination. Also for her always letting me know how beautiful I am on the outside as well as the inside. She rocks. Travis Aaron Wade is another person I look up to for his personal struggles and determination. He is a great man, with so much talent.

Aaron Guerra: Ten years from now, what do you see yourself doing?

Jonathan Sinani: Ten years from now I see myself making movies and doing what I love entertaining people. Hopefully by then I will have covered some ground in the industry.

Aaron Guerra: Do you have other talents you’d like to share?

Jonathan Sinani: Other talents, I really love to dance. I’ve taken dance classes in Spain since I was young and its another outlet for me to express myself artistically. I love it because it makes me feel so free and invincible. It’s an amazing emotional feeling. Another thing is that I love languages, and speak Spanish as well as Bulgarian. As an artist the most import thing to me is communication, just now I can do it in three different languages.

Aaron Guerra: Everyone has a soundtrack tune to their life. What’s yours?

Jonathan Sinani: The soundtrack tune of my life would have to be the song called ” Shell Of The Universe” by Nancy Rancourt. It’s an amazing song, that expresses a lot of things about me.

Aaron Guerra: What dream role would you love to have?

Jonathan Sinani: My dream role would be to portray a character with deep cathartic meaning. A character that just expresses everything I’ve been through in life, so that I can let it go with the character. That would be an amazing role to perform.

Aaron Guerra: There’s talk you’re moving to LA next year? What are your thoughts on moving to the big city of glitz and glamour?

Jonathan Sinani: Hollywood hear I come, whatch yourself! hehe It’s a big step in my life and career, but it’s a step I’ve been dying to do ever since I was little. Therefore, I’m very excited for the big move, and know it will be a positive move, because I have hope and faith in everything I do.

Aaron Guerra: Which actor would you love to work with?

Jonathan Sinani: I’d love to work with a lot of actors, but I’d have to say it would be amazing to work with the Jonas Brothers, because not only can they sing but they are very talented actors. Also it seems like they are fun to work with. You never know, maybe one day I will, everything is possible.

Aaron Guerra: Any thoughts on a possible reality show?

Jonathan Sinani: Nothing is out of the question at this point. Once again I’m an actor, so anything that allows me to express myself, is a major plus. So lets see what happens.

Aaron Guerra: How did the “Princess Protection Program” come about? And who do you play?

Kevin Schmidt: It came about like every Disney audition I’ve had over the years. A stressful wait on the 21st floor of the Disney Channel Building haha! I play “Bull” a popular kid who thinks he makes high school cool. My job is to put Demi and Selena through the “haze”.

Aaron Guerra: What do you look for when looking for roles?

Kevin Schmidt: A character arc! A reason I’m supposed to be in the story. So many roles have zero substance, if there’s no ability for me to get into a characters skin - I tend to shy away.

Aaron Guerra: You’re also in “The Alyson Stone Project.” How’s that coming along?

Kevin Schmidt: I’m in front of, and behind the lens on the “ASP”. It’s my baby. Directorial Debut. I’m excited to get it released and work on more!

Aaron Guerra: Having a youtube channel, is it another outlet for you to express yourself as an actor or to interact with fans? Are you ever afraid that what you post on youtube can affect your acting opportunaties?

Kevin Schmidt: I’m a real person. I make mistakes, I’ve broken laws… I’ll never claim to be perfect. Even sane! The YOUTUBE Channel gives me the chance to express myself how I choose to. No strings attached.

Aaron Guerra: Has the entire process of becoming an actor and getting work been hard?

Kevin Schmidt: It’s a viscous cycle actors put themselves through time and time again. Pour yourself into a role and get rejected. Of course it’s hard, anything worthwhile is. That whats makes you appreciate everything along the way.

Aaron Guerra: What helps you keep striving to reach your goals in life?

Kevin Schmidt: The subtle rewards that show themselves along the way…

Aaron Guerra: It’s not un noticed that you’ve lost weight, what motivated you?

Kevin Schmidt: I wanted to make a change. I never felt like a chubby kid. I love being active, I was quite the diversified athlete as a kid but I couldn’t seem to keep weight off. I decided to change what I was doing and put myself on a schedule. The food I eat tastes better, my body feels great - I feel amazing! What other motivation do you need?

Aaron Guerra: Has losing weight helped you obtain more roles?

Kevin Schmidt: It’s been about the same. I wanted those leading roles when I was heavier, I felt like I understood the scenes and moments… but I was kept from them. I love the new challenges I’m handed in the roles I go out for now.

Aaron Guerra: What was the biggest rejection you’ve faced in your career? How did you surpass it?

Kevin Schmidt: It’s been about the same. I wanted those leading roles when I was heavier, I felt like I understood the scenes and moments… but I was kept from them. I love the new challenges I’m handed in the roles I go out for now.

Kevin Schmidt: Stay positive and keep at it. Know that passion will always succeed.

Aaron Guerra: You have an internet talk show at TalkShoe. What made you want to do this?

Lucy Walsh: When I was a kid I would sit for hours with a big silver radio and record tapes of me telling stories and interviewing myself in different voices. I guess my internet talkshow is just an extension of that. I like to hear myself talk.

Aaron Guerra: What inspires you to write music?

Lucy Walsh: Getting the boys I like to have crushes on me. That’s my song-writing inspiration.

Aaron Guerra: How would you describe your sound/style for the record your working on now?

Lucy Walsh: I dont know what Im doing, I just make music I like. I play alot of my songs at the piano, and the record im recording now reflects that. Afew artists I draw from are Cyndi Lauper, Sarah McLaughlin and Keane.

Aaron Guerra: What’s your favorite song off your album, and why?

Lucy Walsh: My favorite song changes constantly. At the moment I really like a new song of mine called ‘Sleeping on Your Arm.’ Im currently recording it, just wrote it like a week ago.

Aaron Guerra: Who would you love to collaborate with?

Lucy Walsh: I’m lucky to be collaborating with someone whos been on my wishlist, John Vesely aka Secondhand Serenade. I sang his song ‘Fall for You’ on my mtv show Rock the Cradle, and now he’s releasing an acoustic version with me singing with him. Very cool

Aaron Guerra: Are there any plans to duet with your dad?

Lucy Walsh: No duets with dad. Ever

Aaron Guerra: What kind of acting role would you consider taking if you had the chance to pick something you liked?

Lucy Walsh: I have always wanted to be an actress, and I’ve done some music videos and independant films. Ive been in theatre study and improv classes my whole life. A role I wouldve loved to do is Marie Antoinetten the Sophia Coppola film. (Kirsten Dunst beat me out unfortunately)

Aaron Guerra: Will you be able to tour once your album is out?

Lucy Walsh: The record and touring go hand in hand…we like to see an artist live whos record we’re really into…so thats really the only thing on my mind at this point…getting my record finished and getting on the road. There is nothing better than touring in my opinion,,,play a live show, get on the bus and wake up in a new town to do it all over again. If you want to see me live in your city, do us all a favor and help me expand…pass my music and myspace onto all your friends.

Aaron Guerra: Any advice to aspiring singers or people who would love to get into the entertainment business?

Lucy Walsh: Just do it because you LOVE the arts, and the rest will fall where it may…its seriously insane, so i honestly recommend moving to Wyoming to become a dentist instead

Interested in acting by the time he went to high school, he was cast as Othello in the production “Othello.” Later went to American Academy of Dramatic Arts and now is known for his role of Charles on ABC Family’s Lincoln Heights. Get to know Rob in this interview and see what he has to say about wanting to work with Christopher Nolan and his new project on the web.

Aaron Guerra: Have you started filming season 3 of Lincoln Heights? IF so, how’s it been like so far?

Rob Adamson: We started filming the third season of Lincoln Heights back in April. We are about two weeks from wrapping, and so far, its been a very exciting season. I think Lincoln Heights has taken a unique turn, one that I hope, but to be honest, have no doubt the audience will respond positively to. The show, to be frank, just gets better and better every season.

Aaron Guerra: What do you expect from this new season after last season when your character got into a car accident?

Rob Adamson: My expectations have certainly been taken for a spin. The writers have definitely chosen a direction that will be a surprise. I’ve been saying through the course of shooting, “What are you guys cookin’ up?” Everything was a constant surprise, whereas, last season I kind of had an idea of the specific direction of the character, without knowing of course, the exact details of the content. It opens the door, creatively, as well as through the eyes of the audience to experience that shocked, cliffhanger sort of feeling.

Aaron Guerra: You have a new TV movie coming out called “Princess Protection Program.” What can you tell us about it, and your role as Donnie?

Rob Adamson: The movie is exactly what the title implies, Princess Protection Program is about a young princess who’s country is on the brink of war, and who, for her own safety, must be protected until the dispute can be resolved.

Donnie was an interesting character to play. I’ve never played a character with absolutely no redeeming qualities. That’s the way I wanted to portray him at least. I would love to think that in this world people learn their lesson and grow, but unfortunately, I’ve come to realize that some people really are just too dense. Maybe you’ve met a few your self. (Certain Teen Idols? Male Models?) Just kidding, I love models.

Aaron Guerra: What kind of research did you have to do in order to play Donnie?

Rob Adamson: I watched One Tree Hill.

Aaron Guerra: Are there any memorable memories on set of the “Princess” movie?

Rob Adamson: Many. Some I can talk about and some I cannot. Just kidding, we all had a fantastic time. We filmed in Puerto Rico, it was beautiful and when we weren’t working we were enjoying each other’s company and getting to know one another. I got a chance to meet some pretty incredible locals too. I love that place.

Aaron Guerra: If you could choose a role from a movie/tv, what would it be?

Rob Adamson: Dick Grayson in the third Batman film with Chris Nolan. Come on, I’m perfect for it right? Christian Bale’s been my favorite actor since I was a kid, so I’d love to get a chance to kick Harvey Two Face’s ass with him. RIP Heath Ledger.

Aaron Guerra: You’re doing a web series called “Cause We’re Family.” How did that come about?

Rob Adamson: I was sitting at a bar in Marina Del Rey with a few friends after a day at the beach and in walks Tony Longo from Angels in the Outfield. We yelled him over to hang out and have a drink with us, and him and I just struck up the most odd, and entertaining conversation I’ve ever had. We came up for the concept of “Cause We’re Family” right there. I game him my number expecting to never hear from him again, but he called me the next day, and by the next weekend we started filming.

Aaron Guerra: Do you plan on producing/directing any feature films in the future?

Rob Adamson: I would love to have the opportunity to Produce/Direct, but I feel like I should get my feet a little more wet in my first passion, which is acting.

Aaron Guerra: What do you think of today’s digital social networking sites like MySpace? Do you connect more to fans? is it easier for you to get feedback from projects that you do?

Rob Adamson: It’s definitely a quick fix for attention, that’s for sure. I’ve realized from a young age that everything was moving toward a purely digital and single platform environment. Broadband speeds have finally reached a capacity capable of handling massive streaming support. You can download an HD movie as you watch it now. While a part of me feels like all this online communication neglects good old fashion human contact and communication. It’s still an exciting revolution to watch.

Aaron Guerra: What do you see yourself doing 10 years from now?

Rob Adamson: Doing a movie with Chris Nolan and Guillermo Del Toro, back to back. I’m putting it out there. Wish me luck!

You already have the luck, Rob! Keep up the good work!

Kate Voegele is quickly becoming one of music history’s biggest stars. Being signed by Tom Anderson at MySpace opened a lot of doors to this Ohio native. Her debut album “Don’t Look Away” impressed listeners, and has appeared numerous of times on the hit TV show, The CW’s One Tree Hill playing Mia, a shy keyboardist-turned-solo singer. Not only that, she’s also going to school online while touring on the road.

Aaron Guerra: On the upcoming Disney Mania album, you sing the song “When you wish upon a star.” Out of all Disney songs, what made you decide to sing that one?

Kate Voegele: I have always loved that song. Some of my favorite memories are the trips we took to disney world so I was very excited when they asked me to do a song on the CD. My producer Marshall Altman put together a very cool rendition of the song. It was a blast!

Aaron Guerra: Where does your inspiration come from to write such beautiful songs such as “It’s Only life.”

Kate Voegele: Almost all of my songs just come from my every day experiences. I co-wrote that song with Jim McGorman and we put the chords down in less than 2 hours. I came home from LA and wrote the lyrics and then Marshall Altman produced it and I was so happy with the final cut. It’s just basically about not being afraid to take risks and to keep trying even when things don’t go the way you had hoped or planned.

Aaron Guerra: Any tips or advice for songwriters?

Kate Voegele: My only advice for songwriters would be to write down every idea you have in a little journal or notebook. Even if it’s just a word or phrase you like, write it down so you can come back to it later. You never know when that idea may blossom into a song.

Aaron Guerra How was it working with Hilarie Burton (Peyton Sawyer) on One Tree Hill?

Aaron Guerra Are there any crazy fan encounters you remember, like someone asking you to sign something really weird or giving you a funny gift?

Kate Voegele: So far all of my fans have been wonderful. I am always amazed at how nice and supportive everyone has been. My little sister said she did see someone lick the tour bus when she came to visit me….I guess that’s pretty strange!!!

Aaron Guerra: Will you be touring internationally in the near or distant future?

Kate Voegele: I would love to tour internationally. Right now my schedule is pretty full but maybe later this year or next year!

Aaron Guerra: What is your absolute favorite song to perform and why?

Kate Voegele: It’s hard to choose a favorite but I really love performing “wish you were” because i think a lot of people can relate to that song.
