Answer
Dear Jenny, I just answered this same question for another youngster.  You are ordinary all right, there are literally tens of thousands of you all who want to be on Disney Channel..Sorry but unless you live in LA and have lots of training and experience (or a famous relative) it is not possible for you to do that.  If you are 14 or older and have your parents support for your being an actress, write me at kencosp@aol.com for more help.  Best wishes, Doc
