THE JONAS BROTHERS CONTINUE THE 54-YEAR TELEVISION LEGACY OF "THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY," JUNE 21 ON ABC

Three Hour Event Features Network Broadcast Premiere of Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up" Music Video and Other Bonus Material

As part of Disney's Summer of Rock, the Jonas Brothers will continue the 54-year legacy of "The Wonderful World of Disney" franchise, as they host the network premiere of Disney's "Camp Rock," airing SATURDAY, JUNE 21 (8:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on The ABC Television Network. "Camp Rock," a Disney Channel Original Movie, will debut as part of a four-day premiere event on two cable and two broadcast networks of the Disney-ABC Television Group (Disney Channel, ABC, ABC Family and Radio Disney) and via digital broadband at Disney.com.

ABC's three-hour "The Wonderful World of Disney" event will feature the broadcast network premiere of Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up" and the Cheetah Girls' "One World" music videos, as well as exclusive "making-of-the-video" featurettes. Also included is a special sneak peek of the upcoming ABC primetime series "High School Musical: Get in the Picture."

Kevin Jonas commented: "Having 'Camp Rock' be included in 'The Wonderful World of Disney' is absolutely amazing. We grew up watching the show, and having the movie be a part of it is the biggest honor ever."

The longest running network television series in primetime history, "The Wonderful World of Disney" originally began in 1954 as a primetime feature hosted by Walt Disney himself as a showcase for original programming from The Walt Disney Studios, including feature films, original made-for-television movies, cartoons, documentaries and educational shorts. The Jonas Brothers join such legendary "Wonderful World of Disney" hosts as Julie Andrews, Ronald Reagan, Kirk Douglas, the Osmonds, Annette Funicello and Michael Eisner, among many others.

"Camp Rock" is a song and dance-filled Disney Channel Original Movie for kids and families starring Platinum-certified Hollywood Records recording artists and Top 40 and Radio Disney hit-makers Jonas Brothers (Joe, Kevin and Nick) and singer/songwriter/actress Demi Lovato (Disney Channel's "As the Bell Rings"). The movie tells the story of a talented yet unsure teen who yearns to share her songs with the world, and of a tempestuous young superstar who has lost his passion for music and is sent packing by his band mates. Together, at a camp for aspiring young music artists, they learn to believe in themselves and to value the freedom to be who they really want to be. Also starring are Alyson Stoner ("Cheaper by the Dozen"), Meaghan Jette Martin, Anna Maria Perez de Tagl� (Disney Channel's "Hannah Montana"), Jasmine Richards ("Naturally Sadie"), Maria Canals-Barrera (Disney Channel's "Wizard of Waverly Place"), Daniel Fathers, Roshon Fegan, Jordan Francis and screenwriter/actress Julie Brown. The movie was written by Regina Hicks, Karin Gist and Julie and Paul Brown. The director is Matthew Diamond.

"Camp Rock" will air in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC's selected HDTV format, with 5.1-channel surround sound and Spanish audio via SAP. This program carries a TV-G parental guideline.
