NEED TO KNOW
The legacy of Camp Rock lives on, nearly two decades later.
On Aug. 10, the Jonas Brothers brothers kicked off their 20th anniversary tour in New Jersey, where Demi Lovato joined them onstage for a mini Camp Rock reunion. Together, she and Joe Jonas sang “Gotta Find You,” “This Is Me” and “Wouldn’t Change a Thing.”
Joe told the crowd it had been “almost 10 years” since they sang “This Is Me,” while Lovato insisted it “might have been longer.” The two briefly dated in 2010, two years after playing love interests in Camp Rock.
The movie musical, which premiered on June 20, 2008, followed Mitchie Torres (Lovato), a talented yet shy teenager, who gets the chance to attend the prestigious summer music camp, Camp Rock. While trying to fit in and hide her modest background, she befriends other campers and catches the attention of Shane Gray (Jonas), a famous pop star attending the camp to rediscover his passion for music.
The cast members’ careers have evolved since their time on the Disney Channel. Lovato has released nine studio albums, including REVAMPED, her first remix album with re-recorded rock versions of her songs like “La La Land” and “Don’t Forget.” Meanwhile, the Jonas Brothers went on hiatus and have since reunited, releasing three albums.
Here’s everything to know about what the Camp Rock cast has been up to since 2008.
