Selena Gomez Offers Her Services In New Film 'Princess Protection Program'

Actress Selena Gomezstopped by the studio this morning to talk about her role as Alex Russo on the hit Disney show Wizards Of Waverly Place and her new film Princess Protection Program.

In the show, the Russo family lives in New York City and the three children -- Justin, Alex and Max -- are wizards-in-training. But the down side of having siblings in a wizard family is that only one of them will be able to retain their powers into adulthood. So, the Russo children are trying to use their powers as much as they can so they can pass a test which determines which of of them will keep their powers.

In the straight-to-DVD movie, "the worlds of royalty and roughing it collide when the lovely Rosalinda (Demi Lovato) enters the Princess Protection Program and moves in with her new "cousin" Carter (Gomez), a total tomboy. In an unexpected role reversal, "Rosie" learns how to act like an everyday girl and Carter finds her own inner princess. Once they discover what they have in common, they prove that best friends really are forever," according to Disney.

Wizards Of Waverly Place airs on Sundays at 8:30pm on the Disney Channel. Princess Protection Program is available in stores on June 30.

Selena is also the national spokesperson for Sears: Sears is teaming up with Selena Gomez to give customers the power to bring out their inner rock star in a search for America’s next Air Band. Four band members will be selected to be a part of the Sears “Air Band” and appear in their own “Air Band” music video with Selena Gomez. Selena is hosting the competition which can be checked out at the just-launched www.Arrivelounge.com.  There, visitors can vote for their favorite “Air Band” contenders, and help Sears name the band, design the band logo and decide the hot fashions and the music the band members will rock. There are prizes and back to school wardrobe makeover for the person who comes up with the winning Band name. All summer long, the Arrivelounge.com web site will feature the hot new fashions from Sears.
