Winner of the Prom Ultimate Invite Contest 

Disney.com is looking for the most creative ways to ask someone to prom in its new Prom Ultimate Invite Contest.   In the upcoming Disney movie “Prom,” hitting theatres on April 29, lead character Lloyd just can’t seem to score a date to the biggest event of the year.    At Disney.com/PROMContest, fans can help Lloyd by uploading videos that show or tell the most creative ways to ask that special someone to prom.   The contest participant with the best idea will be awarded a trip for four to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of Disney’s “Prom,” a $500 Macy’s gift card to get red carpet ready and a chance to meet Disney’s “Prom” stars Nicholas Braun or Aimee Teegarden. Contest entries will be accepted until March 31, 2011.

To find out more, go to Disney.com/PROMContest where the band members from Allstar Weekend provide contest details and share their best ideas for asking a date to prom.

Fans can check out the rockin’ music featured in the movie with 30 second clips of “Not Your Birthday” by Allstar Weekend  and “Prettiest Thing” by Oh Darling. Then, they can create their own music videos with their favorite songs and photos from the film by going to Disney.com’s Create and make their own “Prom” Music Slideshow.

About the movie: At “Prom,” every couple has a story and no two are exactly alike. Several intersecting stories unfold at one high school as the big dance approaches; Disney’s “Prom” portrays the precarious passage from high school to independence as some relationships unravel and others ignite.  For Nova Prescott (Aimee Teegarden), it’s a battle of wills as she finds herself drawn to the guy (Thomas McDonell) who gets in the way of her perfect prom. Fellow seniors Mei (Yin Chang) and Tyler (De’Vaughn Nixon) harbor secrets, while others face all the insecurity and anticipation that surrounds one of high school’s most seminal events. There are hundreds of nights in high school, but there’s only one “Prom.” Featuring an emerging ensemble cast and a powerful soundtrack, Disney’s “Prom” hits theaters April 29, 2011.
