Disney Channel is celebrating 100 original movies. It’s pretty safe to say, Camp Rock is one of the most beloved out of those hundred. We got to super casually DM back and forth with Camp Rock star Jordan “J-man” Francis who played Barron James in the series.

You are best known for being in the Disney Channel original movie Camp Rock. What was it like to be part of that cast?
“I had no idea what I was getting myself into because the cast was all up and coming at the moment …the cast was amazing and it was a blessing to have the opportunity to share the screen doing what I love with all of them”
Disney Channel is celebrating having 100 original movies. If you could be in any other, which would it be?

What are the best and worst parts of acting, singing, dancing and choreographing?
