(NEW YORK) April 25, 2011 - A group of lucky NYC teens kicked off their Easter weekend on Saturday at a special screening of Disney's upcoming film PROM (www.disney.com/prom), hosted by heir to Diddy's empire Justin Combs, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter/pianist Karina Pasian and TeenDiariesOnline. Despite the rainy weather, over 140 excited Disney fans packed the Regal E-Walk Stadium 13, where they were treated to popcorn, drinks, gift bags and a raffle of prizes that included Rihanna's Reb'l Fleur perfume and two T-Mobile myTouch phones.

 

The young hosts intro'd 'PROM' by sharing their own personal prom stories: Karina went to her prom with two friends; Justin has yet to go to prom, but started a Twitter hashtag - #TakeMetoPromDior - to search for that perfect future date. Of course, this sent the girls in the room (and on Twitter) into a slight frenzy, which only added to their excitement to see the film.

 

Attendees included People Magazine's Ivory Jeff Clinton, CNN's Keisha Lamothe, Joane Amay (Lucky Magazine), stylist Misa Hylton, Wayne Barrow (Bystorm Entertainment),TeenDiaries founder Aeshia DeVore Branch, Tiffany Forte (EBONY), Def Jam's Al Branch, Chris Nadler (Hot 97/Emmis Communications), JUICY senior editor Taiia Smart Young, Michelle Orange, Kuae Mattox (President, Mocha Moms NY) and Leanna Archer, teen CEO/Founder of Leanna's Inc Natural Hair Products.

 

PROM is in theaters April 29.

DISNEY 'PROM' STARS HIT THE
ATLANTA SCENE
 

'PROM' stars De'Vaughn Nixon and Kylie Bunbury at Twist Atlanta

 

(ATLANTA) April 18, 2011 - Disney film stars Kylie Bunbury and De'Vaughn Nixon were out and about in Atlanta recently promoting their upcoming teen flick PROM (www.disney.com/prom) which hits theaters April 29. On Friday, the two were the guests of honor at a press lunch at Twist, where over 20 outlets got the gorgeous actors to dish on behind-the-scenes PROM details, racism in Hollywood and getting into the film industry. Bunbury, a native Canadian, even showed off her sultry singing chops, while Nixon - son of Debbie Allen and basketball legend Norm Nixon - charmed the group with his natural humor.

Later that evening, Bunbury and Nixon headed to the Georgia Aquarium to crash the prom of Woodland High School, where 500 students were celebrating their last days of the school year. Kylie and De'Vaughn - who play prom king and queen in PROM - were on hand to crown Woodland's king and queen (Devon Thames and Chelsea Collins) and prince and princess (Eddie McGill and Tiffani Tittle). They also presented a special Woodland senior (Dequavius "DQ" Thomas-Gibbs) with an autographed poster and advance PROM movie tickets for overcoming the odds to graduate on time!

The PROM actors ended their Atlanta stay on Saturday at Carol's Daughter Lenox Mall, where Kylie hosted a special "prom preparation" beauty session with 25 teen girls. Led by store manager Saniyyah Griffin, Kylie showed the girls how to layer different fragrances, do hand scrubs and hair treatments and pamper the skin for a fresh-faced look. The talented PROM beauty graciously made several young girls (and their moms!) very happy that day.
