Who wants to bet that Xander will become an "overnight sensation"?
Austin & Ally 2.0, because that's just how cliché Disney Channel is.
shareI would. I don't think he's gonna be made to be THAT big!

It's not going to happen on Bunk'd. Austin had his own show and basicallt had weekly musical numbers.
Now he could say get cast on HS4 and blow up there.
Depends what you mean by "overnight sensation".
Except for slutty Miley and Britney Spears, all other Dizzy stars are only on Dizzy's record label. I've never heard anyone other than these two on a REAL radio station. Holllllywood Records and Radio Dizzy aren't real entities that amount to anything in the record business.
When they get a record deal on Capitol Records or another serious label, and until they are on a "Top 20" radio station out of Chicago or New York, I'll consider them "real" artists.
BTW About Zendaya, did you notice how, since their show went off the air, Bella Thorne turned into a woman, and Zendaya is still a little girl?

I never talked about Kevin. I only talked about Xander on the show itself. Then again, people these days don't know how to distinguish between a Disney Channel character and his/her actor, so I don't blame you.

Again why would Xander become a sensation?Because Disney Channel is obsessed with whoring out their "actors" to become "singers". share

Not all of them can sing. And you are confusing the actor with the character.

The highest Zendaya has ever been in the Billboard charts is in the 50's and that's kind of his point.
R5's latest album debuted at #6 overall and number 1 in pop so that's nothing to sneeze at but overall he's correct. Hollywood records is a minor scratch on the industry and none of these kids are anywhere near being a true superstar like Miley was.
As for Z being a kid I think that's kind of offensive. Because she's not acting like a ho she's still a kid. (Not dissing Bella) Well Z's going to be in Spiderman so it's not like her career is struggling.

The point is they HAVE been on the radio. You say it debuted at #1 but isn't anything to sneeze at? Seriously?
Miley is a skank who should just her mouth.
Zendaya is 20 and still on Disney.
What?

I said it as a compliment towards them. Now that only equals to 30k albums sold in 1 week so it's not Earth shattering but debuting #1 in pop, #6 overall is noteworthy.
So what if she's 20 and on Disney? I don't see how that makes her child like just because she's not falling down the same trap that many child actors do. Overcompensating and thinking acting slutty makes you a women. See Miley.
We've been telling Cardinal for years that she uses the "nothing to sneeze at" phrase wrong. It's no wonder she didn't understand you were using it as a complement because her use of it always indicates negativity.
I can't die! I have 43 twitter followers that depend on me! oh, and I have a daughter.
It's really nothing about Zendaya, it's just that I saw a movie over the weekend that had Bella Thorne in it and, OMG she turned into a woman!
Zendaya still looks like she did 5 years ago...a girl. That's neither good nor bad, just the way it is. I find it odd that I'd have thought it the other way around, Bella would have stayed a little girl and Zendaya turning into a woman. I had it totally wrong.
As far as Dizzy's music people, I'm in the St Louis market and where I am, the regions #1 top 20 pop station plays all day and I have yet to hear anyone at Holllllywood records playing on it.
It's also not being a superstar like Miley, it's being known, I've asked people, young and old about the Dizzy 'musicians' and I've yet to have anyone tell me they ever heard of Ross Lynch, Zendaya, or anyone else concerning Dizzy, closest I've come is a late teen knowing about Bridget Mendler. And BTW, the only ones that have heard of any Nick singers is the slut Areola Grande. None has heard of Victoria Justice or anyone else at Nick.
My point about these singers and musicians at Dizzy and Nick, they are flash in the pans and after they lose their shows, their main music experience in 5 years will be lounge musicians at the local Holiday Inn.
{I intentionally didn't mention Selena Gomez because most people know about her, but mainly because of her tabloid appearance associated with Justine Beiber, not her singing career}

Well your informal survey means nothing and I would stick to the billboard chart argument. I don't listen to pop. I know I heard Z's Replay on the radio but that song only broke the top 75 so it was by no means a hit.
I do think you're right. Radio Disney is some obscure satellite station, Hollywood Records isn't a real player, and none of these kids are stars anymore.
As far as Z and Bella goes it's just the different paths they took. Bella shed her Disney image is taking on adult roles, just recently did a shoot for Playboy. Z's still doing her Disney thing. Both have been pretty successful by Disney kid standards. I was just saying it's pretty disrespectful to call one a woman and one a kid based on imagery. It doesn't make you a women to sex it up not that I'm criticizing Bella at all.
LOL I don't listen to pop either, I just don't have a choice in the matter. I'm in a situation where I can talk to a wide variety of people and can only go by what I'm told, and I ask a lot of questions based on what I hear on here and other venues. Billboard only tracks trends at the moment, which could lead someone to believe someone is more popular than they really are.
I suppose I'd get a lot different answers if I worked next to a middle or high school, but I'd rather base any popularity on "stars" by asking adults. Otherwise, Jonny Sokko would be world famous.. (look it up)
As far as basing on imagery, what else do you have? I can only do that BASED on imagery. I didn't realize, until today, Thorne had plastic surgery to pump up her tits, but that wasn't what I based my comment on... it was just that Thorne seems to have decided to become grown up "looking" whereas Zendaya seems to want to remain childlike looking. I never would have guessed that that was Thorne in the movie. You may disagree, but that's what an opinion is. I respect yours as I hope you respect mine. Just don't turn to idiocy like that cardinal loony does.

But there's no fun in civil discussions. We're at the point now we're we'd just be going in circles. I do respect the points you brought up.

Just because someone LOOKS grown up does not mean they are. Getting bigger boobs does not mean her any more an adult mentally then not. Zendaya does not look like child. Just because she choose not to mangle her body that god gave her does not mean she is a child. That is the most absurd thing someone has ever said!
You are a fruitcake who seems obsessed with an actresses body. It's creepy.

You're just a fruitcake. Period. End of discussion AND... everyone on this board agrees with me.
