What happens when royalty meets reality? On Friday, June 26th, Disney unveils a different kind of “Princess Diaries” with the premiere of the third brand-new Disney Channel Original Movie of the year, PRINCESS PROTECTION PROGRAM, starring Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez. Queen-to-be Rosalinda (Lovato) is an actual princess, but she must learn to cope with her suddenly regular teen life when tomboy Carter Mason’s (Gomez) father brings her home as his “secret mission”.

"In the movie, royalty meets reality with Carter Mason, a rural Louisiana teen, and Rosalinda Marie Montoya Fiore, the soon-to-be teenage monarch of the tiny country of Costa Luna. The pair meets after Carter's father, an agent in the covert international Princess Protection Program, rescues Rosalinda from a military take-over. He whisks Rosalinda to a PPP base where she receives a temporary new identity, Rosie Gonzalez, and is placed in his care until order can be restored in Costa Luna. When he arrives back in Lake Monroe, both teenagers are shell-shocked when Rosie moves into Carter's room and the princess, posing as Carter's visiting cousin from Iowa, begins adjusting to country life and enrolls in Carter's school. Despite their differences, the girls slowly learn that there's not only a lot to like about each other, but lessons to learn as well. That's apparent when Rosie nominates Carter for homecoming queen over the heated objections of two jealous rivals, Chelsea and Brooke. And with her newfound realization, Carter brainstorms a way to help her new best friend regain her throne, even if it puts her own well-being at risk."
