GL’s Amanda Forr caught up with Camp Rock’s Alyson Stoner. Turns out, this tip-top hip-hop dancer leads a super-healthy lifestyle. Whether she’s on-set with the JoBros or hangin’ with her fam, this chick seems like she’s active 24/7. Check Alyson in action in Camp Rock on June 20th on the Disney Channel at 8 EST/7 Central and as Alice in Alice Upside Down, out on DVD July 29! GL: So do you have any favorite summer memories? AS: My family and I, we’re all big athletes, so we would go to the baseball diamond every day and my sister would have a softball game. And right next to it was the soccer field, so I would go play my soccer game. Then we would go to both of our basketball games and I would have gymnastics practice. I know this sounds crazy, but we loved sports, so that was every day, we were out in the field playing sports in the hot summer heat. GL: Wow, you guys are athletic.AS: We just love sports—it’s kind of crazy…I wish I could still play soccer like I did, but it’s something I have to practice every day to really keep up. I’m used to using my arms throughout the day, but when you have to use your legs to dribble the soccer ball, it’s really not easy. GL: How else do you like to unwind?AS: I’m such a nerd; I do homework. I know that’s weird but it keeps me feeling like a kid that has to do homework at home. And I either take my books on the road or I like to create my own music on my computer on my little electric keyboard. And other than that, the first thing I do is I go for a run. If I can’t clear my head going on a run, then I’ll go and play basketball and if I can’t do that, then I go and write music. Exercising clears everything out and just helps me chill. It’s not like I’m obsessed with working out, I’m obsessed with feeling good about myself. I love the feeling that I’m making my heart ten times healthier by going for a run. I just care less about physical appearances, because it’s what’s going on in on the inside that really matters. And it feels so good to know, like okay I’m definitely not going to have as high of a risk if I was just sitting on the couch. GL: Right, it sounds like you’re just the type of person who wants to take care of herself. AS: Oh yeah, it’s a bad thing and very like a mom, I tell my friends, too, like did you guys take your vitamins today?

**Moderater How can i make myself feel better about my appearance? I have a skin disease where the pigment in my skin is going away, it's called vitiligo. Not only do i get really wierd looks in public, my sister is obsessing over the way how her "tan" doesn't look good or how she's a freckle face and she hates her skin. Then she's always telling me that I don't take care of my hair and it looks like so-n-so from school, but the problem is that i don't know how i can make my hair be how i want it to be. And my mom and dad are both tough to me over my teeth like it's really not that bad and i just have double teeth where i haven't lost the baby tooth and the adult tooth is already in so i tried to solve the problem and i pulled out two of the four teeth one afternoon and it really hurt. They even told me no wonder guys aren't kissing (I haven't had my first kiss yet) you or asking you out I'm not even sure that i am allowed to go out with guys but all of my friends (none of my BFF's are doing this because I know that we share the same values) are going out with guys and kissing them at the movies. That really hurts because this guy that i liked used me to get to one of my friends and he said that he liked me just so he could find out about them so he could ask her out and get her to go out with him and luckly now he's moving. I've told my mom about my skin and how it's really bugging me so she's been trying to get the dermatoligist to recomend an espitition (is that how you spell it) to get my a type of make-up thinngy to cover up my vitiligo. I'm not getting braces until around september because the insurance that we have covers healthcare better once school starts, i think. Even though i am getting in a way "fixed" lol(not in the nasty way) i know that i will still have self image problems but i want to know how to get over them or how to prevent them from really getting to me. I've tried putting all of my problems into a sport that i love, Cheerleading but i still feel bad that all of the girls on the squad look at me wierd or have THE perfect body. Please HELP!

Alyson Stoner is so cool! It seems like she's really dedicated to taking care of herself, and that can really help a person when you actually enjoy it!

Has anyone checked out Get Fit with Alyson? I like it a lot so I joined the club. Now I like doing all the exercises.
sdennis16 on 6/20/2008 11:47:08 AM
s0cc3rgurl, Don't worry, hon! There's lots of ways to get fit. I rollerblade. In about an hour you lose, like, 200 calories. Don't know how? Good! In your struggle you'll lose pounds. Peace out, jbr

Wow. She looks creepy in that picture.

Hey Mod thanks for all your help!
peoplearecool98 on 6/11/2008 1:11:20 PM
****MOD****** I'm the person who left the comment about being to clingy to my sisters BFF! When I see her today should I like bring it up or should I just pretend like I never wrote it! I know she has checked her email because she was emailing my sister! SO HELP!
I don't think you should say anything about it. Maybe she just needed time to think of a good answer email for you. Or who knows it may have even gotten lost in cyberspace. So in a few days send her an email and just be like " Hey did you get my last email, I really need your advice, and you're so great at it" <3 Jaime
peoplearecool98 on 6/11/2008 1:03:24 PM
MOD I am a softball player for a team in a competative league. I want to build more muscle (arms preferably) and I wondered what would be the best way to do that.Would protien drinks be good?
Sorry I don't know much about them, but I would go to your local vitamin shop, tell them what you're looking for, and they'd be able to help you out for sure! <3 Jaime
Awesome Anne on 6/11/2008 12:59:20 PM
She is such a role model! I feel that way too, about running, but I don't have all the motivation. She sounds super strong and healthy! Yay Alyson! You are def a role model!
brunettebombshell on 6/11/2008 8:45:28 AM
***MOD*** Uh idk what to do about this anymore! I started writing these emails to my sisters BFF about my friend issues and she was super helpful and super nice! She didn't seem to mind! But I secretly worry she really doesn't care to read them and just wants to do her own thing! The other day I wrote kind of a long letter to her about everything with my friends and kinda told her what I thought about her hopefully not thinking these emails were annoying and she hasn't responded! And I feel like an idiot and like I pushed it tooo far and that I have become tooo clingy! Idk if I'm overeacting or what! But I really need some advice because I'm seeing her tomorrow and I don't want it to be awkward! SO PLEASE HELP!
That's great that you sister's BFF cares enough to help you out! Maybe she was just busy and didn't get a chance to write back as fast as she usually does. Give her some time and see if she writes back. <3 Jaime

I wanna get healthier. I mean, i'm skinny, but I want to be healthy. all that food is expensive though, and not ONE PERSON in my family does anything athletic. one of my friends runs, but I can't keep up with her pace. she does a mile in 6 min. I do it in 9 min. WHAT DO I DO???
s0cc3rgurl on 6/10/2008 11:57:59 PM
no offense to her but that is a really bad picture of her....she looks really different...I can't belive that she's fifteen!!
paris keane on 6/10/2008 11:50:31 PM
I miss the days when AS did "Mike's Super Short Show" she was good! it's really cool the way she can dance! i can't wait until Camp Rock!
gabbergurl30 on 6/10/2008 11:42:03 PM
wow she looks about.. ten? and she's like fifteen or something like that, right?
gossip_girl550 on 6/10/2008 10:33:44 PM
*****MOD***** Okay, I really want to lose some weight. I think I am fat, but my friends (and everyone else) say I am skinny. I am 13 and weigh 100 lbs, which is normal for a girl of my age and height. I don't know what to do. I want to lose some weight, but everyone tells me I don't need to. What do I do?
Hey there
you should just be confident in who you are and what you are. you could just be healthy and exercise more if it makes you feel better *Sarah
LNC94 on 6/10/2008 10:09:04 PM
MOD!!! i have a huge problem. i have an enormous crush on this guy,and we're good friends. BUT my little brother just told me some of my crush's friends were bullying him, and my crush was right there and DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!!! My brother is a bit on the chubby side, and is insecure about his weight. He said they called him fat. I'm really mad at my crush and his friends now. My crush and I've grown up together, and I've never heard him do anything close to this. What should I do???? Thanks for your help!
you should definitely talk to your crush about it. he really has no right to say those things to your brother. you could be nice about it and confront him in a casual setting, like just at school in the hallway or over the phone. *sarah

xxSammiexx on 6/10/2008 7:12:22 PM
MODERATOR ok i really hate running or walking on the treadmill or something is there anything else i can do for a good cardio workout?
hey girl! its kinda hard to come by a pool often enough, but swimming is way better than running because its cardio and resistance. so you'll get your healthy cardio and tone your muscles at the same time!

trendypenguin on 6/10/2008 5:38:49 PM
That angle does NOT agree with her. Um, anywho I am totally obsessed with Madonna's Hard Candy CD. I have art class today and then hapkido only I missed testing again so I'm worried.
londongirl12 on 6/10/2008 4:04:51 PM
Alyson Stoner is awesome!! Remember her in the Cheaper By the Dozen movies as Sara Baker? Classic. Good times.
sazdaspazz on 6/10/2008 3:55:02 PM
Alyson is 15? I didn't even know that. She looks a lot different now, than in like.. Mike's super short show. I liked her hair better when it was darker though.
Soccer*Sam on 6/10/2008 3:51:08 PM

shadow_of_the_day on 6/10/2008 3:09:25 PM
I can't believe how much Alyson Stoner has grown up! Remember her in Mike's Super Short Show? I liked that so much better then The Short Report. OMG, she was in Step Up also! She was so cute.

**Mod** I went on a trip with a bunch of my friends but there's this one girl who I used to be friends with that majorly bugs me! She was in my room, went everywhere I went, and followed me if I wanted to go with some other girls. The problem with my ex- friend id that she lies: 1. My friend lost her room key and my ex- friend imidiatly accused me, even after I was searched she said " well I saw her take it" 2. She hit my other friend in her new pants with a golf club and got them all muddy How do I get her off my back?
Hey Girl, you need to tell this girl that the things she's doing bother you and are mean! If no one stands up to her then she'll keep doing rude things and lying. I'm sure your friends will back you up if you decide to stand up to her. ~Callie

YOU WROTE IT
It was a strange scent, faintly familiar, like the perfume my mother used to wear. The aroma lingered around me, smelling like dried sunflowers and a soft touch of the new spring air.
