Cheers: Julie Brown Rocks on!
Julie Brown by John Medland/Disney Channel
Cheers to Julie Brown for making a comeback with
Camp Rock. The tongue-in-cheek '80s pop star ("Cause I'm a Blond," "I Like 'Em Big and Stupid")-turned-comic actress (
Earth Girls Are Easy,
Clueless) cowrote the Disney Channel's latest tuneful smash and appears as the camp's super-perky director. Brown's anti-blond bias still comes through via fair-haired villainess Tess Tyler (Meaghan Jette Martin). Seeing the talented Brown - not to be confused with ex-MTV VJ "Downtown" Julie Brown - was a treat for parents forced to sit through
Camp with their tweens. Clearly, she learned how to reinvent herself from Madonna, whom she devastatingly parodied in 1992's
Medusa: Dare to be Truthful. Hope she taught the Jonas Brothers about career longevity.
