I wish that I could have been there when they were filming this. I am so ready for this to premire on Disney Channel. It is sure to be good!

I don't know if any of you remember my trip report from that weekend but we had seen Corbin Bleu. We were in Epcot and they were having a special dinner at one of the pavillions, I think it was the American. When they were escorting him in to the area he accidentally bumped into me but I was not paying attention. We saw all of the security type people but did not know what was going on. All of a sudden everyone was rushing at us and taking pictures. Me being my blonde self was thinking "why are all of these people taking my picture". By the time I looked over to see who had bumped into me all I could see was the top of his head and hair. DH took me to the nearest shop and pointed at a t-shirt and said "that is the guy that bumped into you". When DD found out about this she was mad that we had gone without her and she was even more mad when she found out that DH had worked out right next to the blonde guy in the show. He had his security guards with him and was running on the tread mill early one morning at the AKL. I bet there are alot of pictures of him and I (Corbin) on someone else's camera. I can't believe he bumped into me and I did not notice him. Duh!!!
