“Shake It Up,” a new series starring Bella Thorne, premiered last night as the Disney Channel‘s top Sunday series debut ever.
It didn’t hurt that its “Hannah Montana Forever” lead-in had its best ratings in three years.
But with “Hannah” star Miley Cyrus winding down her TV hit (and about to turn 18 years old), attention has turned to 13-year-old Thorne as the Disney machine’s heiress apparent.
Thorne, who has guested on “Wizards of Waverly Place,” stars in “Shake It Up” as CeCe Jones, an aspiring teenage dancer on a local Chicago dance show. Not coincidentally, Cyrus also balanced school and musical performance on “Hannah.”
Do you have any interest in “Shake It Up”?
And, as Cyrus enters the next phase of her career, do you think Thorne has the best chance to become Disney’s biggest star?
